Default 05 FX4 2.5" leveling kit ?'s

I have an 05' F150 FX4 crew cab and I'm looking at getting a day star 2.5" leveling kit. My question is will I have to get blocks for the rear axle as well?

Ok. I really jus want it to sit level. And when looking for kits I saw there were different sizes and wasn't sure if I would need blocks on the back for the 2.5" kit up front

No rear blocks will be needed then just your spacer up front and ur good to rock.

dont go with Daystar, or any other urethane levels. eventually they will settle. go with Hell Bent Steel, ProComp etc.. they are steel and much better.

Thanks guys. I think ima jus go with the Superlift Level-It system. I've never been a big fan of Rancho nor have I heard good things about their products. Plus Superlift is a local business to me and I always like to support local business's thanks again for all the info.

Ive had a daystar on mine since 07 and have never had an issue with it. 2.5 is the perfect height, and didnt have to put blocks in the back. I was even able to tuck some 35s under it for a while with minimal trimming and a little bit of rubbing.
