Done!!! Spoke to the owner of Auto Spring today. He informed me that to get level on f150's from 2010-12 you need 1 1/2" kit. Ford raised the front and dropped the back in 2010. So unless you plan on doing the rear too 1 1/2 puts you at level. 2" actually puts the truck about 1/4" past level.

2.5 in the front and a leaf in the rear will level it but also raise the whole truck a bit. I didn't want to raise the back because I need to carry a ladder and didn't want to struggle to reach it. Also by doing that the truck will ride a little rougher due to stiffer suspension. FYI if you are worried about stress on the tie suspension, bigger tires put more stress on them than the leveling kit. I do have factory off road shocks too, my truck is 1.75" lower in the front. Don't know if this helps.

Interesting. I spoke with rough country sales and they told me the 2.5 would level it because the 10 screw was about 2 3/4 higher in the rear. So now I'm wondering if I'm going to be nose high?

Front 2 1/2" Lift w/ Rear AAL for $190
What do you guys think about this combination and the price?
I would like to lift/level the front while at the same time bringing the rear up a bit and from what I have been reading the AAL is the way to go especially if you ever plan on hauling anything in the bed of the truck or towing anything behind you.
The most that would probably be in the truck is my ATV but i want the best bang for my buck.
I would be pairing this lift up with 20" KMC Cranks..tires not sure. Love the look of the Nitto Trails and Toyo M/T's but for someone who does 90% on road driving would I be better off with say a Nitto Terra, Cooper Zenon's or BFG T/A KO's.
Then would lifting the truck with an A/T tire make it look out of place?

Ride Quality
Hey guys, I just installed the Rancho Quick Lift Loaded front and RS9000XL rear. I was wondering how the spacers or Bilstein’s impacted ride quality. It seems like the QL made mine ride quite a bit harsher…
