Default Leveling kit help

Hello everyone this is my first post here on the forum. I need some help choosing leveling kit for my 2014 F150 SuperCrew FX4. I am trying to choose a leveling kit that will let me run 33s and UNDER $800-$1,000. Thought about doing the 2 inch lifted struts from rough country but I am not sure if the N3 shocks that come with it would raise the rear (adding a rake again). Thanks and dont be afraid to send pics!!!

Another thing, I REALLY like the look of this kit from RC. https://www.roughcountry.com/ford-su...150-4wd-566696
Would a 3 inch kit like this affect other parts of the vehicle? (Driveshaft and other things) What else would I have to replace with this kit?

Take a look around. You are by far the first person with this question.
Please do not get the idea of a 3" lift. they are not good. Spend time in the lifting thread and you'll find subject lines that match your questions.

Start there and do some homework and we'll be happy to help with understanding what you are confused about.
The kit you are asking about is in an active thread and should be easy to find.

You should be able to get a 2.5 front spacer for $75 and install yourself or have a shop do it ($200 maybe), and fit 33s real easily. Stock tires are already 32", I got a 2.5" spacer and put it in myself and fit 33s with a 10" wide wheel and -18mm offset wheels and only had to do some minor plastic trimming. Stock wheel/offset shouldn't need any trimming.

You don’t need a level to run 33s. Just FYI.

I agree...I ran 305x55x20's at stock height on a '11 4X4 using stock 20's. Also ran 275x60x20's on a stock height '13 4X4 I had on stock 20's. The 305's were real wide so they would barely touch the upper control arm at stock height....both of these trucks I later leveled just for looks.
