Default Just got my new f150 which lift?

I just want to level it out! I've measured and it's exactly 2.5 lower in the front, should I go with the 2.5 or a 3 because of it settling eventually? How much will it affect the front end?

I don't want to create another thread asking the same question as I am looking for the same information. Also, sorry to tack onto your post Bray44.

I have a 2010 XLT SuperCrew Cab 2wd with stock everything. Looking to level it out as well as long as it does not require a re-tune of the speedometer. Will the lift drastically affect MPG as well?

Shouldn't really effect either! As long as u don't jack up ur tire size, a 2.5 level doesn't chabge speedo much if at all

I just installed a Rough Country 2.5" leveling kit. I'd say it rides just the same as stock. The 2.5" kit also came with the 2.0 rear shocks and 1" block/spacer. Towing my 16' enclosed trailer seems to ride a bit smoother, (not as much bounce in the rear).



Front fender to ground measured 38" stock...39 1/2" with RCX Level.
Rear fender to ground measured 40" stock...41" with RCX Level

I'm adding 35x12.5 Toyo Open Country MT's with 18x9 Centerline Wilderness Scout wheels here in a bit.
