The 3 Best F150 Leveling Kits For 2015 - 2018 Ford F150 - Duration: 6:09.
Hey, everybody.
I'm Justin with americantrucks.com, and welcome to my best of video for the leveling kit category,
available for the 2015 and newer F150.
Now, the purpose of this video is to combine my personal feedback and experience along
with customer popularity, to help make the buying process a much easier one when it does
come time to level that new rig, in addition to getting some bigger tires under there.
So, why go with a leveling kit?
Well, as the name implies, leveling your truck is the act of raising the front end anywhere
from one and a half to three inches, which will serve two purposes.
Now, first and foremost, it's going to eliminate that factory rig, which is the look of the
front end being a little bit lower than the rear.
Secondly, depending on how big of a leveling kit you go with, it's gonna allow you to squeeze
some bigger tires underneath your truck compared to what came on it from the factory.
Now, on top of that, the leveling kits are gonna be far more affordable and far easier
to install compared to those full-blown suspension lift kits, which typically involve a lot more
parts and some permanent modification to your truck.
The leveling kits here are completely reversible, and again, a lot easier to install.
I do wanna quickly point out that all three of my leveling kit selections in this video
will fit both two and four-wheel drive trucks.
However, that is not the case with every kit in the category.
So, just double-check your fitment before pulling the trigger for your truck.
My first selection goes to the Rough Country 2-inch Kit, which according to the company,
will fit a 33 x 12.5-inch tire.
Now, the Rough Country 2 Inch option will be far, in a way, the most popular here in
the category at this current time.
And like other kits, it is pretty simple by design.
And what I mean by that is, guys, you're looking at a pair of strut extensions here that will
bolt to the top of your strut assembly to give you that additional altitude for the
front end.
And in Rough Country's case, those extensions are gonna be constructed out of high-quality
6061 billet aluminum will include, of course, all of your necessary hardware needed for
the installation, and will be backed by a lifetime warranty.
Keep in mind, guys, you're getting all of this for right around $100 here, which makes
the 2-inch option from Rough Country one of the most affordable kits currently on the
site in addition to being one of the most popular.
But what if you crave a little bit more?
You'd like a little bit more height for that front end to fit an even bigger tire underneath
that new truck?
Well, for that, I'd recommend going with the Mammoth 2.5-Inch Leveling Kit, which the company
claims, will allow for a 35-inch tall tire.
Like our first kit, the Mammoth is also going to be a very popular option on the site, in
addition to also being very affordable at just north of 100 bucks.
Now, like that Rough Country kit, the Mammoth will also feature a very simple design, including
a strut spacer this time measuring 2.5-inches tall, giving you that additional boost over
the 2-inch leveling kit options.
As far as materials are concerned, Mammoth incorporates a powder-coated laser cut steel
for their spacer, which as you can see, has been finished off in a hammer tone coating,
which will add some durability and prevent any possible corrosion over the years.
This kit has been made in the U.S.A. and does include all of the necessary hardware for
the installation.
Now, before I go onto my third and final kit here for this video, I do wanna point out
that, yes, you will find 3-inch leveling kit options on the site that will deliver 3-inches
of lift for the front end.
But if I can quickly just throw in my two cents here, will a 3-inch leveling kit give
you more clearance?
Sure, absolutely.
But those bigger kits tend to put your CV joints and axels at really bad or extreme
angles.
And, sure, this might not be a big deal for two-wheel drive trucks out there or for four-wheel
drive trucks who spend most of their time on the road.
However, for the owners out there who do a fair amount of four-wheeling, this might accelerate
the wear and tear on those front axels or hubs.
And because of this, I tend to recommend sticking to a 2.5-inch leveling kit kind of as your
max height here, guys, for the truck owners out there who still tend to take their rigs
off-road frequently.
But moving on to my third and final selection, and for that, I chose the Rough Country 2-Inch
Leveling Kit with shocks, which will allow for a 33-inch tall tire.
Now, this kit got top honors from me, not based off of total lift or overall quality,
but rather what is included.
And as you guys can see, you're really getting a lot here with this third and final option.
Now, unlike my first two selections, the Rough Country kit that we have here does include
spacers for the strut assembly, of course, but also includes parts for the rear including
new N2.0 shocks along with 1-inch blocks and new bolts for the rear axle.
So, yes, you're still essentially leveling your truck here, guys, but your final results
won't be as nose high as some of your other options on the site.
And this actually could be a good thing for owners out there who plan on hauling a lot
of cargo in the bed area or maybe doing a lot of towing, as the rear blocks and the
new N2.0 shocks won't allow for as much sag as you might otherwise see if you didn't touch
the rear end at all.
So, definitely, something to consider there.
Construction wise, well, you're looking at pretty familiar territory at least upfront
here.
And that's because this kit does incorporate those same 2-inch billet aluminum spacers
as my first kit but with the added goodies for the rear, including those new rear shocks,
which will help firm up the rear end a little bit more in addition to the 1-inch blocks
here and those brand new U-bolts.
Now, expect to spend a little bit more for this kit as those extra components do add
up a little bit.
But still very affordable overall at the $200 price point.
Well, guys, that's gonna wrap up my best of video for the leveling kit category available
for all 2015 and newer F150s.
Again, this is just three of many different options you'll find on the site.
So, if you still have any questions about the products in general, check out the respective
product pages along with the customer reviews.
It's a great way to help you make a better decision for your own truck.
Thanks for watching, I'm Justin.

2017 Ford Explorer - Review and Road Test - Duration: 7:41.
launched in the early 1990s the Ford Explorer deserves credit for opening the
floodgates for America's SUV obsession decades later the three row midsize
Explorer SUV remains a Sales Leader raising the question is the popular
choice the right choice for you the answer is yes if you want other drivers
to wonder if you're a cop police impersonation aside the Explorer has a
rugged and refined look that states unambiguously no I do not drive a
minivan
Inside you can choose a second row bench seat or second row captains chairs
unless you need a demilitarized zone between spiteful siblings the seven
passenger layout is the logical choice for hauling people oh we should note
that the Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander each top out at eight seats
second row accommodations are accommodating but let's see what happens
when I climb into the third row as a completely average American male this should
be a pretty good test assuming you're a completely average American male head
does not touch the headliner seat back is a little bit vertical and my knees are
well-acquainted with the seat back but yeah I could do this for a little bit
climbing aboard the Explorer's third row is a cinch due to wide aperture rear
doors and optional power folding second row seats up front a parking brake and
wheel well hump somewhat intrude on foot space but otherwise the foremost
quarters win big in the comfort department making amends for its
capacitive controlled past the latest Explorer incorporates sweet unambiguous
buttons for the audio and climate controls while a 4.2-inch
screen comes standard we greatly prefer the optional 8 inch touch screen
featuring Sync 3 Apple CarPlay Android Auto and a pair of USB outlets
the system is an intuitive attractive and useful centerpiece for the interior
look at those buttons fly depart this region of the cabin and there are a few
areas of concern the hard shiny plastic feels cheap especially when juxtaposed
with fancy materials that adorn higher trims like this platinum model some of
the steering wheel controls are ergonomically indistinct requiring you
to read them until you instinctively know what does what and it sure seems
like the dash trim and door trim should line up or at least misalign the same on
the left and right sides on a more positive note the Explorer boasts more
space behind its third row than most midsize SUVs it's 21 cubic foot capacity
doubles with the third row dropped an easy task made even easier with the
optional power operated seats lower the second row and that number jumps to a
commendable 81 point 7 cubic feet cargo is accessed through a wide rear hatch
that if you're willing to pay for it opens with the wave of your foot first
time try
roll down the road at a decent clip and the Explorer shines with a plush ride
and well-controlled road noise boing encounter a curve though and you'll
notice some imprecision from the steering wheel interestingly cornering
grip is better than you'd expect I think the the chassis people need to talk to
the seat people one notable Explorer shortcoming is visibility the B-pillar
is wide blocking your view to the side the C&D pillars are also wide blocking
your view rearward and over your right shoulder and the A-pillar is wide
partially blocking your view to the front at the same time a long dash and a
sloping hood make it hard to tell exactly how far you should pull into
that space to Ford's credit they counter those visibility issues with technology
in the form of an optional blind spot monitoring system and a washer equipped
forward-facing 180 degree camera that is a godsend when creeping from an alley
into traffic for propulsion ford serves up a trio of engines each paired with a
competent 6-speed Automatic transmission starting with a naturally aspirated v6
given its modest $500 premium torque-y output and 27 mpg highway rating the
optional 2.3 liter EcoBoost 4-cylinder is a smart upgrade if blowing the doors
off of other midsize SUVs sounds like fun the Explorer can on higher trims be
equipped with a twin-turbo 3.5 liter v6 with the EcoBoost v6 you can either tow
up to 5,000 pounds or blast from 0 to 60 miles per hour in around 6 seconds I
choose the latter
for those who'd rather tow the Explorer offers a tow haul mode with trailer sway
control watch a few crash videos on YouTube to appreciate why that's helpful
the EcoBoost v6 sends its abundant power to all four tires but four wheel
drive can also be added to the base v6 and EcoBoost 4-cylinder for about $2,100
do so and you'll enjoy hill descent control and a four mode terrain
management system while removing the possibility of getting shamefully stuck
in a front-wheel drive SUV in roughly $32,000 base form the Explorer's feature list
consists of automatic LED headlights a 6 way power driver seat with manual
recline rear climate controls a backup camera a six-speaker audio system with
Bluetooth a host of airbags including a front passenger knee airbag and Ford's
MyKey which helps parents prevent reckless
behavior from inexperienced drivers venturing through higher trims and the
option sheet opens features like dual zone automatic climate control a 2 panel
moonroof power adjustable pedals passive entry with push-button start an
automatic parallel and perpendicular parking system heated and ventilated
front massaging seats delivering truly heroic levels of lumbar adjustment and
adaptive cruise control that automatically shuts off at slow speeds
be sure to remember that supplementing the standard safety roster are options
like second row outboard inflatable seatbelts lane departure warning with
steering assist and forward collision warning select the top tier platinum
trim with it's Sony premium audio system and Nirvana leather seats and MSRP lands
around 52,000 dollars filling out the mid-size three row competitive set are
the VW Atlas Chevrolet Traverse Toyota Highlander
and Honda Pilot among others in such an illustrious crowd the Explorer's varying
quality and seven passenger max capacity are potential deterrents
shortcomings aside the Ford Explorer is roomy offers a range of compelling
features and it'll give you a handy conversation starter with all those
other Ford Explorer owners at the very least the sight of yet another Explorer
on the road might help keep slow drivers out of the left lane thank you for your
service
