On my previous F150 (2006 XLT) I had the 2.5" Autospring leveling kit and it leveled it out very nicely. The leveling kit cost about $80 and to have it installed and aligned was about $150.

2.5 inch leveling kit is the best look, I have a 3 inch and the front is a little taller then the back but can't really tell that bad, hell bent steel was the cheapest I found around 75 to 80 bucks put on myself then had the local tire shop realigned the front for 45 bucks.

Should do it. You can measure the difference from front to back for yourself and see what the actual difference is. Top of tire to wheelwell is a pretty easy way to measure. Then subtract and u have your difference. Aka, how much of a level needed to level the truck.

You can install a level yourself if you have the right tools...
