Shop for a 2023 F150 Leveling Kit

Find the best leveling kit for your 2023 F-150

Leveling kits raise the front end of your truck to eliminate the factory rake or nose-down stance that many newer trucks have from the factory. The raised front end allows you to add larger tires/wheels and provides a more level and aesthetically appealing look. The most common leveling kits for the 2023 F-150 raise the front end by two inches, although you can find some kids that provide a 2-/2″ lift and even a 3″ lift. This post shows the leveling kit products from the seven most popular manufacturers.

Spacer kits versus leveling struts

Larger tires and wheels add weight, so before you buy inexpensive strut extension spacers, consider how your truck will ride after the installation. While a spacer kit gives you the lift you need to install larger tires, it can’t compensate for the added tire/wheel weight. If you don’t change your struts, you may encounter a rougher ride or even tire/fender contact. To get the best ride quality, consider spending more on strut assemblies designed to handle the extra weight.

To install a bolt-on strut extension kit, remove the strut from the truck, add the spacers to the strut mount, reinstall, and align the truck.

What is a positive rake?

Carmakers design their light trucks so the unloaded bed sits higher than the vehicle’s front end. The design ensures that the vehicle will sit level when the bed is fully loaded. However, the positive rate limits the tire size you can install on the front wheels and gives the truck a downward-sloping look.

Many truck owners install a leveling kit to raise the front end to install larger tires and get a more aggressive-looking stance. To learn more about the difference between a leveling kit and a lift kit see this article.
