Leveling Kit
Well, I'm new to the whole pick up thing, had a jeep prior to my new F150 Lariat screw.
With the jeep it was just a lift kit, but know I'm seeing all the leveling kit talk. Now, I assume it's pretty much just to level off the front end with the rear, however, I see people using some different hights (mostly 2 - 2.5").
My question is, are you bringing it truely to level ? if so, which is it then, 2 or 2.5 which makes it true ?
I'd hate to go 2.5 and have teh front end sit higherr than the rear ...
Newbie question probably so please bare with me ....
thanks,

The 2.5" kit brings the truck to completly level, but if you put anything in the bed(use the truck as a truck), then it looks like the as*s is dragging.
The 1.5" kit is ok, but the 2" kit works good.
You can look at my Dad's 04 with a 2" leveling kit, the 3rd pic was before the leveling kit, and all the rest are after.

Hey shawn I looking into a leveling kit too. I have heard good and bad things. I've been told daystar is a good brand to go with. I am worried about changing the ride of the truck. Does anybody know if I would have to buy new shocks?
