Leveling Kit question
I have a 2005 F -150 super crew 4WD. I was just curious if any body has put a front end leveling kit on, and if it is worth it. Any response will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Guess it depends on what your definition of "worth it" is. If you want to level up the stance of your truck which gives you the possibility of adding bigger tires if you want in the future. You can get a Autospring for around $90, only other money you need to spend is to get it aligned. Personally I think it gives it more of a "true 4x4 stance" to it! I went with the 2.5 Autospring on my '06 F150 but if I could do it over again I would probably do the 2".

I used a 2" auto spring leveling kit on a 04 F150 screw 4wd, and it looks great(like a 4wd should).
I think it was the best thing done to the truck.
While your there, you should replace the stock coil over shocks(you can get some that'll give you a 2" lift, so you wouldn't need to get the leveling kit or go back and replace the shocks after they aren't worth a darn at 50K miles.
IF I had to do it again, I would of gotten shocks with a lift on them. Would of saved money, and time to basically do everything twice.
