level a '10

[Tree Trimmer]

i gotta '10 f 350 4x4 lariat.

i want to level the truck. i want to bring the front up, not the back down.

there are enough kits to do this out there, to make your head spin.

i need help picking one.

there are kits that are just a block under the spring. im not convinced i want to use a block.

then there are kits that are a actual spring, thats X amount longer to accomodate the lift. im leaning in this direction.

steer me in a direction. ease of install is not a concern. i have a full shop available to me. quality of parts, and durability/longevity of the kit are most important.

it really dont matter to me what kit i get. looking for input on the different kits out there, so i can make a informed decision. you have this kit, but dont like this about it. you have that kit, but next time you would get this one because of....... you get the idea.

dont take this the wrong way, im hoping to learn from your mistakes.

The best way to do it is Icons 2.5 leveling kit. Comes with new springs, shocks, trac bar.

It will improve the ride and realign your axle if needed. The front maybe a little higher though, all truck are a little different. The springs will settle a BIT but not much.

If you dont want to get all the extra stuff, a simple 2inch spacer would work. I havent ever ridden in one but Id guess they stiffen up the ride a little.

I have the icon TEI spacer which is just a 1inch spacer. On my 350 it has a slight rake, higher in the rear. Ive got stock shocks and it doesnt ride any different then before. I run 22 inch wheels with 35 inch tires and it required trimming.

What size tires are you trying to run and on what wheels? This matters, as depending on the offset of your wheel, you may need the higher kits.

stock tires and wheels.

i just want level. no rake. never liked the look of rake.

I have a ready lift 2.5 with a track bar and shock extenders. I never noticed a difference in ride quality its still ruff ass hell. Here is a pick of it with stock wheels. aand the tires in my sig

i come from a e99, so this thing is a cadillac in comparison.

The Best ride possible is using a 4 link radius arm kit in lieu of the stock radius arms..as they bind. 4 link arms also allow additional castor to be added ..lack of Castor on the '05 up trucks is the main cause of wobble complaints

So best kit that includes the 4 link arms is the Pure kit or use a Icon and add Pures arms..We sell both..PM me if I can help.

I've installed OUO ALAs with Icon 2.5" springs and it was a noticeable increase in ride quality compared to just a spacer and stock radius arms.

figured i'd throw this out there.

still has to be able to plow snow.

whatever kit you go with just make sure they are progressive rate coils. At first I was leery of shelling out the extra coin for them. After doing so I'm glad I did the ride is definitely worth the extra $$$$

I just bought a cheap a$$ leveling kit from Ebay until my Rize lift gets here (two weeks) but I hated the nosedive look haha, It was better then I expected I did 3" in the front probably 2 would be better its a little tall. It installed in about an hour by myself, just depends how much you want to spend this was a 3+1 for $200 I think. will be for sale at the end of the week when my 8" comes in.
