Question front end sag???

Hello all. Im new to the forum. Question. I am working on a 1978 f150. Going to keep the stock ride height except in the front end. It seems to sag a bit. I was wondering if there is a leveling kit out there people have used or a different way to get it to sit correct? Also, Whats a nice size rim and tire combination to go with it??? Thanks in advance.

There are several ways to level your truck. This generation Ford Truck usually does sit nose down. But depending on which engine you have the springs may well be worn out. I would first look at rebuilding the front suspension completely.
