I have a 1995 f150 2wd xlt extended cab 5.0
I am trying to find a leveling kit for my truck. i like the way they look leveled and the water sits in my bed and it annoys me. i have found a few but they all say it wont fit extended cab. is that really a thing? why wont it fit? if anyone could help and explain or show me where they got theirs that would be much appreciated. thanks!

Anything that fits a regular cab front end will fit an extended cab ... or a reg cab shortbox, or a bronco... They're all the same.

So then does that mean it saying it wont fit extended can mean it will?

What kind of a kit are you looking into?

Most of us just used moog 824 or 844 springs (F-250 springs) to replace the worn out factory OE, it raises the front to 3/4"-1/2" of perfectly level. Makes the truck ride like new without the major front rake. Though if the only thing you are trying to do is prevent water pooling just know that even leveling the truck will not stop this, you would have to get the front at least an inch higher than the back initially to prevent that from happening, easiest way is to park on a slight incline if possible.

The water pooling isnt the big reason. I like the way the look leveled. Would the springs be the best way? But im also trying to find the cheaper way of doing it

Best bet would be f250 springs or just new lifted springs in general. You could go spacer to save some money. Only thing is the bolt extenders for 4x4 and 2wd are different sizes so make sure you get the right one.

Is that what you did to yours to level it?

MusicBro

Before I lifted mine and just had a level yes all I did was use a spacer. Works fine just need to get aligned after.

Do you remember which spacers you used?

Listen to fltdriver. Get some 824 or 844 springs and some adjustable bushings for the upper ball joints. I think you can get them from JEGS pretty cheap, living in the States.
Alignment will be the big part of your cost.
The difference between spacers and springs isn't huge, the labour is similar and you get new springs out of the deal.
That's the way I'd go anyway.
