How to level a 1 ton 97 ford
 
been looking for a way to level my truck, do they make leveling springs for a f350 or would i have to use blocks.

you Never want to use blocks on the front, you could pull your front springs off and take the bold out of it and you could add a leave or you could buy a leveling leave spring kit but like i said you never want to putt blocks in the front.

Ask a DOT officer that question and you will get the answer your looking for...Getting your truck impounded would bring the suck...

This is a shackle reversal kit that will lift it 3" That is just a bit more than level however.

This is for a super duty but it would give you an idea if you wanted to make your own. Longer shackles and lower your rear spring hanger.

yeah, i know the blocks are a no no, but there doesn't seem to be many other options... i wonder why no one makes a 2 in spring lift?

3 in is a bit too much... i don't want the rake the other way

dont waste your time with a add-a-leaf,it wont do anything but waste the time it took to install.rancho and tuff country make 2 inch springs for them and i think pro-comp and bds do also.if you do the shackle reversal you will have to lift the rear 1.5-2 inches to sit level.skyjacker used to have a 2 in replacement spring but not sure if they still offer it.l
