School me on which leveling kit.
Trying to figure out which branch and which size leveling kit to go with. I have saw many brands and it looks like most trucks are 1.5"-2.5" the question is what am i looking for? Truck is a 2011 fx4 screw with factory wheels for now.

I'm running a 2.5" Auto Spring leveling kit. It's affordable and gets the job done just fine. Although, if you go with a 2.5" I believe you will need some lift in the rear otherwise you will be nose-high.

I just recently installed Bilstein 5100s at the highest setting on my 2011 4x4. Truck doesn't sit nose high and rides a little bit nicer than stock, definitely more firm. Got um off Amazon for about $250 shipped, about the only place I could find um in stock.

We make ours in Colorado, USA from 6061 T-6 Billet, screw-in zinc plated studs and hardware, either 2.0" or 2.5" in anodized Black. Lifetime warranty, ships the same day you place the order.

autospring is the best, I have a 2.0" and it sits level, but all trucks seem to be different, the 1.5" will install easier if you are doing it yourself
^^ those look nice also, same as autospring |
measure twice and order once

Thanks, but they are in a different league than the AS ones you mentioned. Theirs are welded steel, ours are machined Billet 6061 T-6 Aluminum. Screw in studs can't be beat as when you tighten the 15mm nut on top, the stud only gets tighter, not so when you use a bolt coming up through the bottom. They both do the job, its just a choice, and people like choices.

I've decided to go with 2" Daystar on the front. Read many great reviews and it seems like a simple install for DIY, which I plan to attempt.
