Leveling kits

[bigmike33]

Hi I am new to this site so bear with me. I just bought my first diesel. It is a 2004 F350 Lariat turbo diesel FX4. Anyhow I want to install a 2 inch leveling kit. What should I buy? If you just block it will it be hard on the u joints and front end or should I buy the entire kit/ NEED HELP

NEVER put blocks on the front of a leaf sprung truck. It is dangerous and puts way to much stress on the front end. There plenty of companys making add a leaf kits that are not that expensive and much safer. Dont forget to buy the proper trac bar drop and pitman arm.

Are you sure you neeed 2"? use a floorjack to raise te front or the truck.
Measure before and raise the truck the 2" and step back to see if it is what you are looking for.
I only put a 1" block on my truck to level it.
I would be more worried about the track bar than the u-joints if you only do blocks.

i put a 1.5" add-a-leaf leveling spring on my 2004 F350 SRW, and it made it look just right. it still has just enough rake to the front end.
