Looking for a 2.5" level for my 07 f150. Ebay has some for around $80. The brand I see the most is "supreme suspension" Anyone here of them and have any reviews? or recommend a different brand? thanks

 

It's just a spacer, anything else you're buying for the name. That's where I got mine and ran it for 30k miles with no problem until I got my 6 inch kit put on.

 

Amazon has HBS for under $100

 

bigbucks, do you remember what the ebay brand was?

Should i be looking for poly or aluminum? I heard poly has been known to compress, and metal can cause rubbing(doesnt do any harm)

 

I personally stick to steel/aluminum. Don't trust plastic.

 

tyler, i just checked out HBS spacers on amazon. this is what they say for a 2.5" level...

"NOTE: The thickness of the spacer is 1.625 inch. Due to the design of the independent suspension of the truck, when you extend the strut by 1.625 inch the angle of the strut becomes steeper allowing the truck to experience approximately 2.5 inches of lift. It is the combination of extending the strut and the change in angle that gives the 2.5 inches of lift. "

is this standard with all leveling kits or just HBS?

 

All leveling kits. I have a 2" HBS leveling kit and it was physically (the spacer) less than 2" thick but when I measured it was right at 2" higher.

 

i just put my spacers from ebay on last night.They were 1.75'' actual dimension. I went with the billet aluminum some machine shop made. they were $50, i went ahead and put new monroe quick struts on at the same time. I got em both from rock auto shipped for 165 (auto zone had them for 200 each).now It looks high in the front so i ordered some 1.75'' lift shackles a guy on here said he got 1.125'' lift out of his 1.5'' shackles

 

I just bought these ones. http://www.ebay.com/itm/131117937311?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
They are from http://autospringcorp.com/index.php?...&products_id=9 who has been recommended around here. The main reason I bought them were the support gussets welded in for extra strength, I read some reviews where cheaper ones without gussets just would start bending in and braking since the load (bolts on the flange) is basically hanging out over the side without any support. I received them about 2-3 days later.

I will probably install these within the next day or so.

 

I got mine off ebay for $50 buck. They were solid billet aluminum, so I figured what could go wrong with them. Been in for about 6 months now and no issues. Like another guy said, they're just a spacer. I also prefer aluminum or steel over plastic for this application.
