Leveling or Lift Kit
Hello All,
I am currently deciding between a 4-6inch lift kit and a 3 inch leveling kit for my 2014 F-150 FX4.
What do you guys recommend/prefer?
PLEASE POST PICTURES OR YOUR TRUCKS
Thanks,
Nick

3" level is asking for front end issues.
2" level with 285/65
2" level with 35x12.5
4" RCX with 35x12.5
6" lift was only 100 or so more but the 4" lift retains factory angles.

I had never owned a lifted truck before the one I bought on Saturday, and in talking to most "lift guys" I was advised to go with a 6" lift. This truck is essentially a "test truck" for me to see what I want to do with my 2016 / 2017 F150 when I get it in a couple of years.
I've only had the kit installed for a couple of days now, but I'm leaning towards going down to a 4" kit when I buy my new one. I like the look of the wheel wells filled a bit more I think, and for what I'm doing that height will suit me fine.
A leveling kit with 35s looks great too, but you'll have to do some trimming to avoid the rubbing on the fender liners.

Lift.
I've done both, if you're keeping the truck a true suspension lift is worth the difference in price for sure. Your front end will actually hold together instead of destroying everything piece by piece.

Het there. I have the same exact truck as you down to the color. I am considering doing a 2" left as ell. Have you had ANY issues with your kit, problem, etc? I spoke with the service manager at my local dealer and he says they see very few trucks with problems from a 2" leveling kit. He did state that the kits will void the warranty if there were front end issues.
