Level Kit and Cost

[WItoTX]

It will void warranty repairs for anything on your front end. If its just spacers you put in, this includes CV joints and ball joints. If its a lift, which lowers the front transfer case, then the drive shaft to the front trans case will be out of warranty, so CV joints on that shaft.

Talk to your dealer. Often if they approve of the shop doing the work, you can get them to warranty everything after putting a leveling kit on. I know of a few folks that have gone that route.

Maybe I need to get it in writing but they said it would not void the warranty and I could take it anywhere to get installed (they recommended a place but their price was way higher than everyone here has quoted). They don't seem like the kind of dealership that would back out though, but you never know...

So I just purchased a 2017 F150 and want to put a leveling kit on it. I have found that the kit itself cost about 65-100$ depending on brand.

My main questions are:

Can anyone recommend a business in the Burleson Fort Worth area?

About how much does it cost after installation and alignment?

Can anyone recommend a good brand of levelling kits?

There is a new place in Burleson right as you come off 35 south bound at the bottom of the 174 Bridge. They are a wheel and tire place but advertise lifts and leveling kits. Haven't heard anything good or bad about them but there is always a lot of vehicles there. They have a Face book page think its called texas tire. I used a maxtrac 2.5/1 on my tundra but did it myself.

I put a suspension level/lift on mine put together by icon. Installation was pretty simple and the ride is much better than stock. Lifted the front end about 2.5" and the rear 1". The setup eliminated the body roll and axle hop I was experiencing.

Icon, king, fox and halo lifts all have setups that are better than stock. I'd highly suggest going this route over putting a spacer in your springs.

Do you have any pictures of the truck now that its finished?

Here's the level kit I got with 33x12.5x20 - I like the way it turned out.

I went with an Autospring leveling kit with my 2013. I think I paid $300 to install the front/rear, install and balance new tires, and do the alignment.

Looks great. Any rubbing with the 12.5" wide tires? Did you have to do any trimming?

What size wheels & tires are these?

Sorry for all the questions but my 2.5" level kit is going on Saturday morning and I'm trying to decide which tire to run on a 20x9 wheel? I'd like to go 33x12.50 but am worried about rubbing. I've heard of rubbing issues and trimming being needed with over a 12" tire. It is a lot cheaper to go with a 275/60r20 which is a 33"x11" tire or a 275/65r20 which is a 34"x11" tire.

I want to do a 3.5 inch level kit on my 2017 F-250 but am worried the ride will be terrible. Thinking of going with the 2.5 icon Springs instead. I can get the 3.5 ready lift spacer with a rear block 1 inch taller than factory installed for $1000. If I do the icon 2.5 spring, 1 inch spacer for the front, fox socks, dual steering stabilizer it runs the cost up to a couple thousand dollars for 3.5 inches.

I'm in the same boat. I didn't realize how rough my '15 was with the leveling kit until I bought my new one. Not sure I want to do anything to it just yet.

I threw on a set of 295/65/20 toyo Open Country MT's which are basically a 35.5 inch tall tire. I was wanting to go a little higher than a leveling kit which is why I wanted the 3.5 kit. I'll probably just go with the icon kit like this.

Some of these guys are spending 5k to put a 3.5 level kit on their trucks and I just can't see spending that kind of money for 2.5 to 3.5 inches of lift. I'll spend 7500 on a quality 8 inch lift but to me the 5k is too much for 3.5 inches. I asked a guy on a another forum what he did for his lift and this is what he told me. Apparently I must be in the wrong business because these guys buy a 75k truck and immediately drop another 5 to 8k on paint work, rims, tires, and lift.
