Ford F-150 Lift Kits

You have several options to take your new Ford F-150 to new heights for your Siloam Springs drives. Whether you want better off-roading prowess or larger wheels, there’s a kit that will do the job! The proper kit can elevate the Ford F-150’s ride height, handling, and capabilities. Here the service team at Superior Ford compares Ford F-150 lift kits and leveling kits so you can decide which is best for your needs.

Ride Quality & Ground Clearance

Lift and leveling kits give pickup trucks greater ground clearance and room for larger tires, which is done by raising the truck’s body further from the axles. There are some differences between the two types of kits and how they’ll affect the F-150’s performance and utility:

• Ford F-150 Leveling Kit: With a front leveling kit, you can get approximately a Ford F-150 2-inch lift (1.5 to 2.5 inches). Stock-style stances are achieved by placing a rear lift block on the rear leaf springs for a slight height increase. Then you can install slightly larger tires — about 33 inches in diameter. Leveling kits are typically best for daily driving, towing, and light and occasional off-roading.
• Ford F-150 Lift Kit: A lift kit will raise your F-150’s ground clearance at all four corners by 3 to 12 inches and allow for 35 inches or larger tires. If you enjoy regular off-roading beyond Fayetteville, this is ideal. Lift kits are best for sand, mud, snow, and heavy-duty off-roading.

Price & Installation

Ford F-150 leveling kits are less expensive than Ford F-150 lift kits. Typically, a Ford F-150 leveling kit costs between $150 to 300, and a Ford F-150 lift kit costs substantially more! Expect to pay around $1,000 to $4,000, depending on your Springdale driving needs, and you’ll likely need professional lift or block kit installation. Leveling kits are easier to install and can be done with hand tools.
