The Kryptonite KRFD17STAGE1BIL Stage 1 Leveling Kit with Bilstein Shocks is a premium suspension upgrade designed for Ford F-250/F-350 Super Duty 4x4 trucks. This complete kit provides an additional 1.5" of front lift, enhancing the truck’s stance while maintaining proper suspension geometry and ride quality.
Engineered for both on-road comfort and off-road performance, this kit allows for the installation of up to a 35"x12.5" tire on a 9" wide wheel with 4.5" backspacing with little to no trimming. A 37" tire can also be accommodated with additional fender and front bumper clearance modifications. The inclusion of 2° caster correction shims ensures proper alignment, reducing unnecessary wear on suspension components. Featuring Bilstein 5100 Series extended-length shocks, this kit delivers superior damping performance, enhancing both ride stability and control. The 1.5" bottom-mounted coil spacers work seamlessly with the bump stop spacer kit and brake line drop brackets to ensure a secure and durable installation. Precision CAD-engineered billet aluminum spacers, a durable black finish, and high-strength Grade 10.9 hardware provide exceptional durability and long-term reliability.
Manufactured in the USA, this leveling kit is built to withstand tough conditions, making it a reliable choice for truck owners who want improved stance, stability, and handling without compromising ride quality. Backed by a lifetime warranty for the original purchaser, Kryptonite suspension components are protected against manufacturer defects, premature wear, or breakage. To qualify, products must be purchased from an authorized dealer, with warranty registration completed within 90 days of purchase.

For vehicles equipped with non-selectable passenger side hub-lock on the front axle along with these ball joint cams, it is required to replace the non-selectable with a selectable hub-lock. Part number (PC3Z-3B396-A) is needed to prevent a grinding noise from the front axle for these applications.
