Coil Spring Leveling Kit....Worth it?
Looking for real life feedback. Im looking to level my 2017 F350 and am considering a coil spring leveling kit. Is it worth the extra $$? I tow heavy often and spend most of the time on road. I would really like to improve the ride quality but not compromise towing.
Thanks
Mike

Why only 1inch? I replaced the factory stabilizer with a fox a few weeks back and it definitely helped. For shocks Im leaning toward Bilstein 5160s.

Ok so your thought is that the front end will become too light and maybe cause a loss of control? I guess I can see that. I appreciate your input. I am new to the truck world so trying to learn from fellow owners. Thanks

if your towing heavy stuff alot then it will be level automatically so i dont see any use for that leveling junk on the truck

Its cosmetic for sure. I am not a fan of the raked look and when I do tow my 5th wheel I run bags for stability and a more comfortable ride.

If you want it leveled, level it... you’ll be more impressed with a coil lift as opposed to a spacer and shocks. If you’re in a 6.7 go Carli, my buddy’s truck drive like a dream and he tows 12k plus on a regular basis with a Carli commuter and air bags in the rear... no issues what so ever and Id guess he has 40k miles towing 12k at a minimum with 90% being on that Carli leveling kit. Once their kit comes out for the 6.2 I will be going to it and I tow 9-10k regularly.

You haven’t posted your motor or front spring option so its hard to give input.
But I have an f250 6.7 and am doing 1.5 inch coils and tow a 15k gooseneck from time to time. I plan to run lower stabileloads to help out.

Sorry, didnt think it made a huge difference. 6.7L FX4, no snow plow option.
