Default Possible to raise front with stock components?

New here and just got my 2014 fx4 appearance package Monday night. I'm wondering is there any way to raise the front a small bit with out using anything aftermarket? (Torsion bars, etc). Not sure if it is possible or not on the new generation. I don't want to do anything aftermarket because any insurance company I have called before I got it said they will not cover anything, even a leveling kit. And if I did and had an accident they would deny my claim.

Thanks

There's no torsion bars to crank up so you have to add something aftermarket to lift the front up. You could replace the front shocks with adjustable Bilstein 5100s.

You could always use spring stabilizers, I used them all the time for people with weak springs and needed them for an alignment to take, cheap, easy to install and you can pop them out in under a minute if you need to.

Just select a size and lift you will have. I'm fixing to put a set on my truck. Perfect solution and they last a very, very long time, don't restrict coil spring oscillation either.
