Improving ride quality
Hi there- I have a 2011 Ford f150 with a 2 inch leveling kit. I'm doing a lot of driving on dirt roads, with big bumps and rocks. I'm trying to find a way to massively improve the ride quality. I've looked at shock absorbers, just not sure if they would help much. Thanks a lot

Not much I can help here, rough terrain is going to "ride rough" even in a caddy. Not being a smart *****, but my 2011 4x4 with a 2" level rides pretty good for what it was made to do.

Right on. I'll look in to the shocks above- seems like a possible upgrade that could help.

Try the Fox 2.0 struts and shocks. These ride like a caddy and can handle all that you can throw at them.
I've already tried the Ranchole RS9000xl shocks ant Quickcrap struts all of which lasted six months with a **** ride from the beginning.

because of the compression from the level, you will never have a great ride. shocks will help like fox, bilsteins, etc... but honestly it will be little. You are better off spending the money on a set of coilovers that give you the lift, but also improve the ride. Icon, F150 lifts BOSS, and FOX all are great options that will solve your concerns. Yes it is a bit more money than just shocks, but it will indeed properly attack your issues

Tire and wheel combo? Is the entire ride you don't like or just the front or just the rear?
Assuming that you're using a spacer for the level is it correct that you're running stock struts / shocks?
