PSD leveling kit ????...

I have an 06' 350 PSD that I want to level. However, I cannot stand the true "level" look, as that usually looks nose high to me. What I want is the front to sit down about 1 1/2 inches lower than the rear. Right now I would guess the front is a good 3 inches lower than the rear. What could I get that would accomplish this without having to tinker with the rear as well??

thanks in advance.

Well, this probably wont help you much, but I too did not want a full on shocks, springs, leafs nose bleed level. So I went with an add-a leaf on the front and it looks great, but you dont have leafs, so im not sure what ya need. But I know how ya feel. Heres some pics of mine.

Nice truck, but you should put a lowering kit on your bike.

Nice looking truck. I'm thinking that if I get a 2 1/2 inch leveling kit with the weight of the PSD, the front will probably be about 1 1/2 inches lower than rear. We shall see.

Probably not. The manufacturers of lift kits know that the PSD weighs more so the springs compensate for this. If they say it's a two inch lift, it's going to be pretty close to 2" when you put it on regardless of whether you have the PSD or the 5.4.

Superlift has both a 2" and 2 1/2" leveling kit for your truck.
