Hey everyone I'm new to this forum but not new to F150s or Fords for that matter. A few months ago I purchased a new 2014 Ecoboost FX4 in dark gray with the appearance package. I am currently looking at upgrading the stock Pirellis to 285/65/20 BFG KO2s.

I have been searching and am overwhelmed by the leveling kit choices, but I do want to go with Autospring. The truck is a daily driver and does some minor hauling. I would like a slight rake, almost level stance. Can someone help me decide between these options for my set-up?

2" front leveling kit ONLY
1 and ½" leveling kit ONLY
2" COMPLETE leveling kit with rear block (2" or 3")
1 and ½" COMPLETE leveling kit with rear block (2" or 3")

I am in the exact same boat. I have a '14 Lariat and am going to get those exact tires on my stock rims. The best thing to do is measure the difference between your front and back. Mine is 2" so I was going to go with a 1 1/2" spacer. That would give me a little rake which is what I want. You don't need to change your rear block. So it just depends on the difference you have from front to back and then if you want a little rake. I say I was going this route until I read the entire 100 page thread on the Boss kits from F150 Lifts. I am now pretty sure I am going with their Ultimate kit. A lot more money but I like the benefits plus I get a little lift out of it.

Here's a kid of my 13 FX4 a bit different than the 14 but it will give you a rough idea. I'm running a 2" level with a 3" block, I have 3/4" rake

I have an 09 palty screw with a 2 1/2" front spacer from hell bent steel and it still sits a hair lower in the front. Couldn't really tell though until I put 35s on it now it's obvious. Very happy with it and never a single issue and it's only like $80 for the spacers plus install unless you do it yourself.

I recently put a Rough Country Leveling Kit on my 2014 FX4 that was a 2.5" front spacer and adds a 1" block to the back. It also comes with replacement shocks for the back. I am running 20x9 wheels with a +10 offset and 275/65/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers. I have some rake still which I like, but not as much as factory. My 275/65/20 tires are about 34" tall. I had a little rubbing on the plastic piece that connects under the front bumper and had to trim that. Here are some pics to give you an idea of what it looks like.

I have a 14' with 285/65R20 KO's with 2.5 front and 2.5" rear block from autospring. Just a heads up, you may have some trimming to do. I did and my rims are only a +35 offset

This picture is before the rear block was installed.

Very Nice!!! I'm most likely going with the 275/65r20 size on mine. My wheels are a +35 through

I have the 285/65R20 BFG T/A KO with a 2.5" level and 3" rear block, Autospring kit specifically for 2014s. I measured after the tires went on and if I remember correctly the rear sits 1.5" higher with this setup.

Thanks for the replies everyone. Based on what everyone is saying and reading a couple of other threads on here, I think I am going to go with an 2" level with a 2" block. The pics of the 2" kit alone look like it sits DEAD level, and sometimes nose high. Sounds like upping the rear block to 2" should take care of that.

I want to make sure the BFGs clear (+/- some minor trimming), so might as well go 2" over 1.5" front . I will be doing some light towing, and would like to retain a minor rake. So the final set-up looks like it will be the Autospring 2" front kit with 2" rear block and 285/65/20 BFG KO2s.

That sounds good. Should give you right about 3/4" rake as the rear blocks on our '14's is 1 1/4". Post pics once you have it done. Again, same tires I am going with so anxious to see it. Should look killer.
