Leveling ???
I noticed F150 owners in this forum tell me too get autospring leveling kit, but my question is whats the diffrence between an autospring leveling kit and just buying some spacers like some rough country or hellbent leveling kit spacers?
If anybody has pictures up close of an autospring leveling kit please post?
Moreover, once i level my truck would yall go with some nitto grapplers or some mickey thompson??

as for the autospring it is an offset design so where you have no rubbing issues. i do not have the autospring and i have a bit of rubbing on my coil because of it(nothing major at all just rubbed the black off the coil). i think that is why many go with the autospring...and price

I have had the 2" autospring in my truck for 30,000 mi with no problems. I also added a add-a-leaf to the rear of the truck. Factory ride has remained. As for tires I’m leaning towards the bfg 305/65-18. They measure out to be a little over 33 inches tall and 12 inches wide. They will be mounted on after market 9 inch rims. I do have pics of my truck with AS 2" and also with add-a leaf in gallery.

Autospring is a very strong high quality leveling kit.
Daystar and rough country spacers require you to use a spring compressor to put the spacer inbetween the spring( harder to install).
Autospring simply bolts on top of the coil over shock set up.
Any offroad shop should be able to do the install. I've heard people getting it done for $200-400(with the spacer and alignment).
You can get the spacer for $80, install it yourself(not very hard), and then get an alignment for $40-60.
