Does the 2" leave it a little higher than the rear or should I go with a 1.5"? I'm running stock rims and tires.

I have a 2" leveling kit on my 2013 4x4. I believe the front is still slightly lower than the rear. Never have measured.

From my experience, it depends on mileage/age and how your suspension has been used, sometimes up to an inch

I have a 2" on my 2012 and I'm about 3/8" low in the front which is exactly what I wanted. 2.5" will get you dead level if thats what you want. I tow alot so wanted a little lower so I level out with a light load.

Get Bilstein 5100s. I have them on mine. Ride improved 100% and they're adjustable.

How much does something like this usually cost?

I actually had 2.5" level w 3" rear blocks so i could have bigger tires. I went w rough country for the level, good price and built solid. I would also look into tho bilsteins. I actually sold my stock level on a f150 forum so i basically broke even on the deal. Just dont throw them away because someone will buy them.

ETA: Ive sold my 2011 F-150 but I do have some subs, amp, and custom f150 box if interested. Will send pics if needed.

I got a price from Kirks for $350 for the 2" installed. I'm sure you can probably find it cheaper. Kirks is right by my office so it's the most convenient.

You should be able to find it cheaper. Call CSC. They're close to you too.

Post pics once you get it done!

Will the box fit if I have the stock subwoofer?

I have a 2010 FX4 Crew with a 2" Auto Spring leveling kit and 35" tires on the factory 20's. It looks amazing! Drives a little stiffer but nothing ridiculous. I paid $75 I believe for the leveling kit from AutoSprings website and had it installed for like $150.

I highly recommend going with autospring. They use a patent pending design that keeps bigger tires from rubbing.

It sits up really nice (but isn't nose high). Google Image auto spring leveling kits on FX4s you'll notice they give the trucks an awesome stance compared to some of the other kits on the market.

Here's an example of their 2" kit

Nah. If you're coming down Airline from Pville/Gonzales area, CSC is before the interstate on your right.

That's what I'm talking about! I'll post some before and after pics. I want to put some bigger tires as well. It's going to be a game time decision.
