If you just want to level the truck and not add new tires or going for the lift, you can take the lift block out of the back. Just look underneath and you should see it with no trouble. You can take it out and cut the shackle lenght or get new u bolts. Very low cost.

Im probably not gona put bigger tires on it, but I dont want to have to lower to get it level. Thats one thing I like about the Ford is how high it sits. Is it gona look stupid with the tires that came on it if I raise the front 2"? The tires I have now are 275/65/18.

What size tires do you have? If they are the 275s, it should look good. If smaller....tough to say. I would also like to level my FX4 06 someday. I like the robust build that I have seen in the Autospring kits. That is probably who I will go with...eventually.

I just put a 2.5 in leveling kit on my 04 scab and it sits perfect and it doesn't look bad with the stock size tires on it. I can't explain why but on rough roads and off road it seems to ride better than it did before. All I know is that I like it.
