Hello all. I have a 2007 Supercrew 5.4, 2WD lariat. Oxford white w/ tan lariat and camel tan leather, 57K miles. I had a 2.5 HBS levelling kit installed, of course w/ alignment. Love the look. But, I'd like to get my rear end up 1 to 1 and 1/4 inches higher. I tow a 6000 pound Mako fishing boat, and the rear sags while towing.
What block comes factory w/ this set up? I would like to put a larger block in the rear to bring her up. I looked under there w/ a tape measure, but couldn't really see a block to measure. Does it even have one?
OR would rear airbags be better?

Thanks, Looking forward to the dimensions so I can order larger block. And get a but lift.

Add-a-leaf to the rear, this might be too much lift for you but there are other manufacturers out there.

as far as i know, the 2wd doesnt come with a block from the factory. i know mine didnt. if you want extra lift and you tow, add a leaf is your best bet

I wouldn't get an add-a-leaf because over time it will make your factory leafs warp around it in an s shape because its so much stronger than the factories especially if you'll be towing alot. They also tend to slip out of place if you go offroading in rough terrain. Air bags are alot more expensive but if it were me that's what I would get.

Air bags are your answer. I have them and love them. They do however suggest you don't off road with them.

I have the 3 inch rear block.. Will be changing that out and going with airbags

thank you, fellas for the answers. looking into the airbag option now. Got a quote from a local 4x4 shop for $800 w/ no compressor on board. Reasonable?

What?? The fireston kit is $269..the heavy duty air compressor kit is $315.. $220 in labor.. That's about right assuming you are getting firestone.. The small kit is $90

You need the Fat Bob's 1" block for the rear. I have the HBS 3" level kit in the front of my 2wd F-150 along with the 1" rear block and the stance is great. It does not make the ride quality suffer, is easy to install and only costs around $100.

Air Lift kit is just over $200 and takes about 2 hours to install yourself.
