What is the best 2 or 2.5 inch leveling kit for a 2014 4x4?

Good coilover? I have Fox 2.0's on my 2014 and beyond pleased. F150lifts also makes a great product. I know Icon and King make good stuff too, but they are pretty pricey. Theyre all good options though if you're wanting to do coils.

Personally, I'm thinking the 1.5 spacer lift is all I would do. Anything more than that - I'd go coilovers. Of course, that all changes if you actually go offroad and use your truck as a truck - the improved valving will help no matter what.

I'm shopping for a 2.5" myself and I think you may have just sold me on this. How long after the fact did you get an alignment done? If it was previously mentioned my apologies I need to get off decaf (lame new years resolution)

They algned it during the installation, however they stated it really wasn't nessasarry to do but did it anyway to make sure. The ride was really great even with the new tires. I received many complements on the look. Thanks

Sorry to threadjack OP!
Are you tires that that much louder?

No problem, you do get a little hum but nothing really noticeable.

The 2014's have a different lower control arm and the levelling kits offer a bit more lift on them than the previous trucks so a 2.5" could be too much. I have an AS 1.5" and wouldn't go any more than that personally.

Good to know. Debating on doing a 3" (2.5 front and 1 rear) rough country. I would like to just go with the 1.5-2 spacer in the front, but I heard over rough terrain and while turning there could be a metal on metal thump. Any issues with the AS on that front? I also want to keep a little factory rake in it. I don't want to be nose up a bed full of mulch and look all chevy-like!

I have a 2013 Lariat 4x4 and I am wondering what is the max size tire that can be ran with a HBS 2" leveling kit with out any rubbing or cutting of plastics? I see most are running 275-65R20's but I was curious if anyone has ran 285-65R20's on factory wheels?
