2017 F250 4x4 Leveling kit Recommendations

[Poco]

Just got the truck last week. Id like to get it leveled for now then go with slightly bigger tires when these get worn down some. I'm being told the BDS 2" leveling kit with the fox shocks is really good for the price. The 2.5 Readylift kit is also nice from what I'm reading. I want the same ride for sure.

Any recommendations on kits and on places to have it done in S.A.? People around Corpus are nuts.

Bump. I'm in the same boat. I've been looking at the Icon leveling options. Also have thought about the Fox route.

I have been looking too.

I am going with ICON stage one 2 1/2" level. Not the cheapest route for sure. But I want best ride I can get. Hopefully better than what I have now.

$1800 installed at Dallas Off Road. Might be better deals let me know please.

I used Y2 Performance in Rowlett. Guys did a good job at a good price. They ordered and put on a leveling kit for me not realizing it had one on it all along. So now I have an extra leveling kit. Should it fit your truck I would part with it for cheap. They thought it was worth $150 but make an offer should you want. It was on a GMC Duramax 2500 HD 4x4.

Spacer kits aren't ideal. They're cheap, that's why people like them. I have a ram 2500, I'm putting a thuren kit on my truck soon. New springs, track bar and torsion sway bar up front with fox shocks or their outlander shocks.

If I was you I would look at the carli kit. High dollar, but buy once cry once and improve your trucks ride.

I just did 2.5” ready lift with the trac bar relocation.. honestly rides exact same as stock and I’m very pleased overall. Paid $650 installed. Just make sure you don’t skimp and buy it without the relocation stuff.

And I kept the Rancho shocks for now, they ride fine so far. Figured I’d wait to change out until I needed them.

Just get the ready lift kit. With all the relocation brackets as stated.
That's what I have on my 2015 and I can't tell the difference in ride at all. Since all the geometry stays the same, so does the ride. Takes about 3 hrs to put it on and then all you need an alignment shop for is to re-center the steering wheel. Guys that mounted my new tires took care of that for free.

I would if I was satisfied with current ride. I was ok with factory. I run 10x20 rims with 305s in Nittos graplers now and not happy with new level of sensitivity.


I going for best ride I can get. My OCD can't stand a rough riding truck. Lol

I got the ready lift 2.5" on my '08 with a 2" lift in the rear and 35" tires. Plus I got to keep the stock shocks on it.

$1,500 kit and tires.

Yes sir. Don’t forget the trac bar location bracket. Did the readylift also.

I went ahead a beefed up the shocks from those rancho shocks and added a duel steering stabilizer, which I do to all my trucks I’ve lifted. Running cooper discoverer st maxx 295r/70/18

Most people say that they notice no difference in ride quality with a coil spacer. That is until they get springs and a torsion away bar, then they realize how bad the ride was before.

I don't blame anyone for not wanting to spend the cash on a carli or thuren system... but I want to improve the ride, not just level it. If only for aesthetics, get the spacers.
