What brand of level kits would you recommend? I'm planning on leveling my 2012 F150 but not sure what to go with, was thinking possibly air suspension?

glad to to see I'm not the only 7 lug owner in here. So if I go with a level your saying I won't be level after I install the kit? Was thinking billstein like most everyone else does. Also did you go aftermarket wheels and tires as well?

I think he's saying he had 4" of rake, after the level install it went from 4" to 2".

Those look like the stock wheels.

Just leveled my 11 XLT Screw 6.5ft 5.0L yesterday with a 1.5" Motofab Level and new Load Leveling rear shocks on 275/60r20 Procomp MT's


My Old Truck 13 FX4 SCab 5.0L (The one I traded in on my current 11) had a 2" HellBent Steel and 3" Procomp Rear Block on 295/70r18 Toyo ATII

that's pretty much what I got. Does anyone else have a setup like this? That offer good pics of a 2in rake etc? I have a feeling I'm the only one with a HDPP.

just be careful with wheel spacers because if you go to a wheel shop (Discount tire to be exact) they will not touch your vehicle with spacers on it. I had some on my old S10 and as soon as they discovered it had spacers on the rear end, they put the rim back on, took it off the lift, and told them they wouldn't rotate my tires until i took of the spacers. the guy even told me to drive home, take them off, put the tires back on, and come back and they would rotate my tires for me. I pointed out that if i took the tires off the rear of my truck, i would already be halfway done with the rotation.

I've had 1/4" spacers on my truck for the last 60000 miles and for 25000 miles on my old super duty with after market rims and never had any issues. If you have spacers with extra studs I could see them not touching your truck. 3 Ford dealerships and at least 6 tire shops saw mine and never said anything. Not trying to start an argument, just saying I've had good luck with my spacers. Good to know discount tire doesn't like them.
