Question New guy with leveling questions

I have a 2003 crewcab F-250 7.3 Power stroke. I just ordered new 305/70/r16's and am looking at leveling my truck. I found a hanger kit on ebay #2458215339, seems cheap compared to other hanger kits. Shoud I look else where? When I look at my front springs it looks like changing the front hanger will be a major pain, any ideas? As you can tell this is my first SD and my first attempt to lift one. Any and all HELP appreciated. Gary

I have a 2000 with the 3.5 hangar lift. Unfortunately, it came with the truck, so I can't help you much with the specifics. Sure doesn't look to me very difficult though. Probably need a good floor jack and a nextdoor neighbor, but seems to be fairly minor.

i put a 2" hanger kit on my 99 in my garage in an afternoon. the only part that was tricky was re-attaching the track bar. i needed an extra person at the steering wheel to use the power steering to align it so i could re-install the bolt.
