Yes still usining the stock shocks....I do think it rides better ...I was gonna do an add a leaf...then I saw an actual ready lift 3" block kit designed to lift the back of the truck an 1.5" you use it when you have the front ready lift 2.25" leveling kit.....there is actually a you tube video......I'm very pleased with it...it brought the back up just enough!..... me and my buddy with his lift did it in about 35 mins ....super easy to do.......take out factory blocks and install the new 3"....... comes with longer U bolts

Thanks 390, that was what I needed to see since I have a 6.5' bed.
I did the front leveling kit early on since the rear was so high when I bought it, over 3". It looks a lot better now, but the rear is only 1/2 higher now and the springs on these trucks are somewhat soft. By being roughly 1.75-2" higher in the rear I'm hoping that I will be level with 800 pounds or so in the bed or while pulling a trailer with a 500 lb tongue weight. Rarely will I have more than 1000 lbs in the bed or pull a trailer with a higher tongue weight.

This is how the FX4 package should look on the F-150. Full Stop.
With Respect,
99% of F-150 owners that have the current FX4 package
P.S - Yes, you can charge me more. No, it won’t poach your precious Raptor sales.
