    Anyone know what a good lowering kit would be for the f150? Leveling kit and 285s would kill the gas mileage but I gotta get rid of the horrendous rake lol

    It has some worn down 265s on it. I'd level the front and get 285s but the engine has no balls and I don't wanna kill gas mileage so the ass needs to come down a bit so I can get some new 265s and it'll look good.

    Looks like it has a spacer in front and a taller block out back.

    You were right. It does have blocks. I'll just remove the blocks one weekend and it should be level. Lol I haven't even looked under the truck until now.

    Put a load in the bed, or pull a trailer. That rake is there for a reason.

    FYI. The spring perch has 2 center pins for the leaf instead of 1 like the Tacoma.

    If it didn't look hideous and was for an F250 I would gladly trade you.
