Hello all!
After a 15 month wait I finally picked up my 2024 F-350 super duty on Saturday. I had ordered a '23. I am really enjoying it and learn something new about it every time I drive it. The front of my truck sits about 5 inches lower than the back. I talked to people who have had their truck leveled. I don't really want the whole truck raised, just the front. What is involved in doing such and if there is more than one way the pros and cons of each.
Thanks for your help!
Rick

If you decide ‘level’ it, please pay to have your headlights aimed properly after doing it.

The front of my truck sits about 5 inches lower than the back. It's a truck. It's supposed to sit a little high in the back unloaded. When you put gear in the bed or hitch it to a trailer it sits level. Level it empty and your headlights point at the moon when you load it. The Superduty's made since 2017 have a mild lift from the factory, around 2".
Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

Can't help much with readjusting your truck height. But will add my 2024 F350 CC SB sits pretty level. Bed is maybe 2 inches higher.
First thing I did was to lower the front tire pressure to 55 and the rear to 45. No need to run more until towing or carrying a heavy load.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

I ordered a 24 F350 SRW longbed about a month ago, sure hope it dont take that long to get here. Was told 4 to 5 months. Hopefully production picks up. As far as leveling i prefer not to do that to one that pulls heavy loads.
