2011 Leveling kit ?
 
Does anyone know if they make a 1" leveling kit for the 2011's?
I have seen a 1.5" but that is the shortest I have seen. I don't want to have to lift the back cause I take the front too high. Right now I am only sitting 1.75" higher in the back.
Thank you in advance.

issues
 
FYI, On the 2011 f-150, you must disconnect the battery before installing the leveling kit or you will damage your electronic steering. I learned this the hard way. When knocking off the ball joints, It shocks the electrical components on the steering which results in a clunking noise over speed bumps and pot holes at low speeds which is extremely annoying. There is also a clunking that is felt through the steering wheel. So if anyone plans on installing a leveling kit on a 2011 f-150, Disconnect the battery before starting the work to save yourself this problem. I haven't had mine repaired yet, so I don't know the cost of repairs yet. I sure it isn't going to be cheap though!!!

Is the Daystar kit a quality one? If not, is there a better 1" kit out there?

Bilsteins can get you an inch at the lowest setting I believe.

They are the way to go, I have them and love them.

It looks great man. I seen when you posted it and that is the look I am going for. Tried to install it but could not get the stinking shock to drop low enoug to where I could slide it out and put the kit on. Wasn't quite as easy as they make it look like, or not for me anyway. How are those tires for road noise, I have been looking at them also.
