Default Rookie Leveling Question

I was parked the other day next to a FX4 and noticed a slight difference in the height on the FX4. The FX4 didn't have any kind of lifts so I am guessing thats the way they are stock. Is the a cost effective way to get my XLT 2wd to have the same height? I am assuming there factory parts that I could purchase for the front and rear, does anyone know what is needed to get this done? I searched some on the forum, but I didn't yield the results I was looking for.

Check ebay for a 2.5" front spacer and get the OEM 4x4 rear blocks from someone who lifted their 4x4. Check my sig/garage for how it looks.

I thought I saw something in the trades and sales about 4x4 block. Can't remember if someone was selling or wanting to buy. Wouldnt hurt to take a glance over there though may find what you are looking for. If not another option is an add-a-leaf. I have one on mine and it rides great and increases the payload capacity!
