Love this setup. Do your tires stick out from the truck any more than when you had the factory tire size?

How much did everyone pay roughly to install a front leveling kit? I'm debating whether to do a 1.5" or 2"...

Not including the leveling kit, I paid $100-$200 for the install that included the alignment. I don't remember exactly how much I paid, but it was reasonable.

I'm having a hard time finding a shop to do it, guess their used to standard repairs around here. Ford dealer said they would add the front spacers for 3 hours of labor...@$300+!!!

Is this a 2.5 inch lift? I'm thinking of going this same route. Has your gas mileage suffered any from it?

When I first installed the Quicklifts it measured 2.5". After a month of settling it's at 2.25". It's dead level as it sits now. The picture was taken on the day I installed them, so it's sitting at 2.5" there.

There is no change in mpg. That will happen when I go with larger tires for sure. That's why I may only go to 33", although I'd rather go with 34".

It rides much better than stock. No plowing into the corners and it feels more planted to the road. I'm glad I went with these instead of a spacer.
