Leveling a 2WD F250

I just installed some new ball joints on my 1999 F250 PSD and now that my front end feels nice and solid I want to level it out with some spacers or longer springs. I was told by the tech at an Off Road Center that this is gonna be hard to Align and he recommended I leave it Stock.

The Options I have found are,

DayStar for $129,

The Black Tuna Roll on E-Bay made of Delrin for $54.99 free Shipping

Fat BoBs' Garage Spacers Made of UHMW on E-Bay for $54.99 + 5.00 UPS SHipping,

Performance Sales on E-Bay sell some Spacers with "Quiet Ride Technology" for $54.88 + $9.88 shipping.

I wish I could find some springs that would do the trick. I put some Coils on my Dodge Ram 3500 4X4 that looked stock black with no spacers. I don't like the Red of the DayStar and think that 129 is Way more than the under $60 prices of some of the other spacers.

Thanks in Advance

I have Daystars and they leveled my 250 out pretty well. I have had then in for around 100K miles now so I recommend them too.

I just went to Costco Last night and ordered up the tires. Gonna install the Fat Bob's Garage Leveling kit and a new set of Moog Outer Tie Rods later next week so I wont have to drive around too long with Non Aligned front end with new tie-rods just eyeballed (the turns on and off counted) Will keep the truck off the highway then that Mon install the 4 new tire then a 2 Mile Drive to the nearest Ford Dealer for Alignment. The Alignment is gonna be $79.00. Yes they know that there is gonna be 2" spacers under the springs.
