Default leveling kit for 1996 f150??

hey i have a 1996 f150 straight 6 with only 36,000 miles it still has the original 235/75/r15s on it. i bought some 31x10.50x15 bfgoodrich all terrains brand new out of the iwanta for $400 they will go on there but i wanted to level out the front first so i can have more clearance for the front tires. i found some 2 inch coil spring spacers to go on there but i dont know if i want to do that. so if yall have any ideas or know what i should use to level it out let me know. thanks

Default might as well throw a body lift on it

my fuel pump went 2 weeks ago. when lifting the bed of the truck to get access to the fuel pump i put the spacers in and did the cab right after. 3inchs of body lift for 100 dollars and the 33x12.5 that i alrdy had on the truck look real good. took only 6 hours and 2 cases of beer.

you might want to do a 2.5 suspension lift i did the spacers, even after the adjsutable cam shims i still can't get it aligned all the way in it messes up the camber. the kit will come with drop brackets to fix it
