Have seen a few post and concerned bout putting a leveling kit and changing angles on my truck, making it a bad decision. Does it hurt the truck in the long run, or will it be ok and not be concerned bout breaking or damaging something.

Thanks

 

There are a couple of small parts in the front end that will wear out a little bit faster, but not significantly faster. Also, if yours vibrates, like many do, then according to Ford mechanics lifting it will make it worse. They told me after driving mine and then their shop truck with my boat on it that they all vibrate. "Very encouraging" was my response. Most will tell you that lifting it won't affect vibration, but it might. Lift it and remove the kit if it vibrates.

 

I wouldn't worry about them, and if you are go with a 2" kit since it will be a little bit better as far as angles are concerned.

 

Put a 2.5" level on wifes truck and did not notice any differnece

 

2 inch on mine. It's almost higher in the front now but still looks better than sloping down like a stocker. What Vibration? Mine is as smooth as My Lincoln LS only alot higher up......
Also, I had an alignment shop install mine seeing I would need an alignment anyways. I asked them if anything would wear prematurely and they said they highly doubted it.

 

What kind of vibration are you talking about and what's causing it? Also, what style of leveling kit are you running? I could imagine that the plate steel type might suffer from vibration, but I couldn't see that happening with the solid billet spacers.
