I am looking to do the same, 2" Front and Rear and keep my stock tires. My question is where do you buy and what do you buy, there must be some 2" kit better than the other and what about price? Is the 2" a simple system to install or I should I go to a mechanic. Thanks, I love my F-150

I installed the ready lift 2 inch levelkit kit as well as the blocks in the rear, so overall my truck sits 2 inches higer. Wasn't to hard to install. I had to get a wheel alignment afterwards. I noticed a 1.5MPG loss with this, basically because i'm pushing more air, and my driveshaft angle is steeper...

Im new so forgive me. But I have heard you can do something to bring the back end down 2" instead of raising the front. I think since the truck is already high and i wont be hauling heavy loads it would be good.

On a scale from 1-10 I would rate it a 5 for me. But keep in mind I have NOOOO mechanical background and had to rent most of the tools (torque wrenches) from autozone.
I have since added wheel adapters/spacers and tires 35x13.50x20.
