Looking for a leveling kit for my 07 f250. Also thinking about swapping for the 350 block in the rear I'm wanting to run 35s. Not brand specific just budget friendly.

Thanks Bryan

Be careful about cheap lift kits..spacers to drop the track bar will get you some bump steer as you should never drop the track bar without a equal droped pitman arm

Castor shims must be used unless you use either 4 link arms or stock radius arm drop brackets.

The bitterness of poor quality lingers long after the sweetness of low cost is forgotten.

So you recommend that I should not do spacers unless I do 4 link or a drop radius bracket? Who makes these kits? Every we're I have found just uses a spacer

I wouldn't use a spacer for a level kit I would recomend new Progressive rate coils and longer shocks.
I would never use a spacer kit to drop the track bar to adjust for the axle shifting.

As far as I know no one makes a Radius arm drop bracket for a level kit to correct the Castor change so its either Castor shims or true 4 link arms..which will also improve the ride quality by getting rid of the stock style binding of the arms

Only 2.5" kit that uses 4 link replacement arms is Pure Performance.

Icon uses Castor shims but you can use Pure's arms instead if you want.

Pure comes with a adj track bar and longer helm jointed sway bar links.

Icon doesn't offer sway bar links but you can get a adj track bar as a option..thats required unless you don't mind the axle shifting over 1"

So at that point why not just go to a lift kit? The object of the leveling kit is to save money. At least for me it is I'm not wanting to spend a 1000 bucks on a leveling kit

The object of a level kit is just that..nothing to do with saving $ or doing a lift. If you really want it level and save $ just remove the rear block.
