I'm looking at a 2 inch or so lift/leveling kit. But I want one that is complete I don't want to have to get part A from vendor C and part B from vendor H. Also want a kit that come with shocks and possible new coil springs. Also if a new drag link is required then on with it. Also duel steering stabilizers.
I've found a few 4" lifts that have everything I'm looking for but don't know if I want a 4" to run 35s or not.
Ive had good luck with readylift 2.5" leveling kit on my 2010 f350. Comes with spring spacers, front shock extension brackets,, trackbar bracket .....all high quality stuff.
Did you do the install yourself on have a shop install the readylift. I am wondering about the brake line relocation. Would it be better to buy extended brake lines or attempt to straighten or re form the factory hard lines like the instructions show for the relocation?
It really depends what you're looking for. We offer a leveling kit for just the front which includes:
-(2) Bilstien 5100 Vehicle Specific Shocks
-Linear Rate Coil Springs
-Brake Line Relocation Tabs
-Caster Correction Shims
-Chromoly Adjustable Track Bar
We offer a Leveling-Starter which includes all of the above, plus progressive add-a-packs and rear 5100 bilsteins.
If you're after on road ride quality without the need to go off-road, we're 2 months away from the release of our Commuter kit which has unparalleled on-road ride.
If on-road and off-road is what you're after, the pintop 2.5" includes everything in the level-starter but uses custom tuned King 2.5" remote reservoir shocks and can be upgraded with a full progressive leaf spring pack in the rear that eliminates the block and Fabricated radius arms up front for strength and tire clearance.
All of the above are 2.5" lifts. If you have any questions on these lifts, feel free to PM me or post them in here!
We highly suggest looking at the ICON and Carli kits. They are currently the best two manufacturers of heavy duty suspension kits on the market. Both offer "stages" of kits to fit your budget and needs. For most people, the Stage I is more than enough and will not only improve the ride, but also drastically increase travel and handling. Also, if you have an F250 and decide to go Icon, be sure to get the 4" block kit for the rear. If you have an F350, the truck will already have a 4" block.
Feel free to give us a holler with any questions you may have.
