The rear add-a-leaf and front leaf upgrades improve load support and maintain a balanced stance, so towing gear or carrying equipment doesn’t compromise ride quality. Camber adjustment provides dependable steering accuracy after lifting, while the SX8000 shocks deliver controlled, consistent damping across highway and off-road surfaces. Backed by a lifetime warranty and built in the USA, this kit offers a durable, value-driven path to a more capable F-250 ready for weekend adventures and everyday use.
