School me on leveling kits

Got a 2020 f250. Stock 20” rims. Would like to look into leveling it and upgrading tires. Not opposed to going up to 37” as I’m told if I level it would fit. Is it that big of a difference between just using blocks or going with springs etc. I’m fine spending a little extra if needed. Dream me up a setup guys

You want six inches in the front but only four in the back.

Just a level. Not trying to drive something obnoxious

Not all leveling kits are created equal.
I think this is a great article to explain the different options
Everybody likes to say leveling kits are bad for your suspension or don’t hurt your suspension, but they are all different.

Use a loaded strut type of level in the front instead of hockey puck spacers - the ride and handling will be well worth it. I wouldn't go over 2" either.

37” tires and you will see your fuel mileage drop significantly

I understand but I’m not concerned with fuel economy as I do not pay for that.

don't bitch at the dealer when the fuel mileage takes an arse kicking. the engineers get paid a lot of money to put this in a wind tunnel and figure out the drag only for you to go frick it up with a leveling kit.

Somebody pays for it.

The current body style F250’s are fairly level from the factory. The one I have is anyway.

Not to mention how the truck sits and rides if it's actually used as a truck and hauls a load.

Once again this isn’t a discussion about fuel economy nor your opinion as it pertains to fuel economy. I am completely fine consuming more fuel. Simply asking for those with experience or expertise on leveling trucks.

Needs just a little less in the front.

Natty, I recently leveled my truck and someone posted this very handy website with spreadsheet that gives you all tires, with all sized lifts, and pictures of trucks that were submitted with the various sized tires and lifts
It’s for F-150s but might help you out as far as sizing/looks
Hope this helps

QUIT BEING A PUSSY AND GET AN EXCURSION

Problem is I’d have to hire a stick man to beat all the pussy off of me. That exceeds my budget.

With great power comes great responsibility.

Don’t forget to adjust the headlights so you’re not blinding everybody.
