Hey I have been debating on what to do. i am new to trucks. I have 33's on my stock f150 2 wheel drive xlt and i want to raise it up a little for looks.

EDIT:
ive decided that i am going with the

Autospring 2.5'' front level with the 3'' rear block
I will post pictures after install!!

3 inch will give you a lot of problems. 2.5 is about the highest you can go up front. I'm just guessing but I assume adding a leaf will prevent sag as well as raise the rear.

 

Blocks just raise the rear end of you vehicle while a add a leaf will help with extra load and lift the vehicle, some people say AAl's give a rough ride but personally i find it gives a more sturdy feel to the ride.

 

So a 3 inch is a no go. So the rough country 2.5 front and 1 rear block with the after market springs is the best option is sounds like.

Since i just want it for looks the best bet is just the rough country option

 

What problems do you speak of? I have 150k on mine with no problems...?

 

I think 2009 and newer have been problematic with more than 2.5. I have a 2.5 on my '10 and that is as high as the dealer said was safe for the front end components in stock form. Any higher needs a dif drop and associated goodies.
That being said, I have the RC 2.5" with no complaints and a procomp AAL which raises the rear a little but prevents bull *******

 

ive decided that i am going with the

Autospring 2.5'' front level with the 3'' rear block

can someone find me the link for the 2wd i cant find it anywhere!!! and i see it all over this forum but i cant find it on ebay

 

If I was on my laptop I would post the link by I can't find the link on my iPod, and a FYI the 3" rear block is for 4x4. I would suggest getting the 2.5" AS front level and look on Craigslist and the classifieds on here for the factory 4x4 rear blocks which are 1.25".

 

so would this be it?

2.5 inch front
2inch thick rear

and do you know if thats any different than this one (Rough Country)
2.5 inch front
1 inch rear block + shock

which one will lift the rear higher? the AutoSpring?

 

Yep and the auto spring would lift higher.
