I just used Moog 824 springs in the front, they brought the nose up to 1/2-3/4" of being level.
With most leveling kits you just get a spring spacer but you have to consider that your springs are probably 20 years old and are in need of being replaced anyway. So... you can spend money on the kit and a new set of OE style springs or you can just buy F250 springs (moog 824 or 844) for the same price of your OE style springs.
Either way you will need an alignment- I installed the adjustable bushings (moog K80109-2wd, K80108-4x4) and dialed everything in myself. Used a level to set camber and measured from back of rotor to front of rear tire for caster (measured before I started then returned it to the same spot) and didn't need to get it done professionally. This was over a year ago with zero issues. You can also go in and get an alignment printout for about half the cost of the actual alignment then set it yourself using the graph chart that comes with the bushings.
