Looking for a leveling kit
99 04 Ford F250 F350 Leveling Lift Kit Super Duty 2 7" | eBay
The link above is what I am looking at. I'm on a budget but can't stand the rake of the truck and think it looks goofy. The rear has the 4" blocks already and I'm looking to bring the front up enough but not higher than the rear. In the furture I am looking to put a small lift in but that won't be for a while. The truck in question is a 2005 F350 SD Supercab 5.4. Also have read conflicting comments about whether or not you need to get an alignment after installing the mini spring kits and also an adjustable track bar. Thanks for your input ahead of time!

if you have a 2005 that won't work... you have coil springs, those are for 99-04 leaf sprung trucks.
i installed that kit about a year and a half ago and its been good for me. no track bar or alignment so far, but i do have some feathering going on so i'll probably have it looked at.

Just a thought and not sure it helps on your truck but, ATS sells god stuff to level your truck (ask for Bob or Junior). I just finished doing this on my 95 F250. Here's a before and after. I went from 265 70R/16 to a BF Goodrich Mud Terrain 285 75R/16. The lift was approx/ 2 inches in the front and about an inch in the rear. The front was re-arched springs and the rear was an added leaf.
