Default F-150 Leveling Kit

Hey any good leveling kit you recommend. My truck need to be lifted 2 inches in the front, how thick should the spacers be [spacer thickness and lift is not 1:1 ratio due to suspension geometry]

yep ... the AS 1.5" kit is a 1.25" tall spacer and the 2" kit is a 1.5" spacer ... but nobody is gonna guarantee you EXACTLY how much actual lift you will get ... it will be close, but not exact. I got about 1.65" of lift from my AS 1.5" kit ...

I have on question on ''lifting''. I want to ''unlift'' mine. Is this doable from an amateur? It seems like my 2008 has some sort of a 2'' block right under the leaf springs. Will that affect the differential performance or transmission?

I heard good things about Ready Lift. And aside from deciding on which brand to get, these threads are worth reading also:

ReadyLIFT is overpriced! Get a AutoSpring for 1/3 of the price and be done with it.

Ask me how I know!
