Ok I am looking for a leveling kit for a 2016 F150 supercrew 4x4. There is a 2.75" difference between the front and back from the ground to the fender directly above the tire 36.75" in the front and 39.5". I am seeing the front end spacers/strut extension kits at 2", 2.25", 2.5" and 3". 3" would be to much so I was thinking one of the other ones. I am leaning petty hard towards the 2.25" kit but I am not sure which one would achieve the most level look? Any advice from the GS would be appreciated.

Go 2 or 2.25. If you tow or carry any weight in the bed you want to keep some rake to it. If you want more, install the 3 inch then add a block to the rear to get it where you want it. I ended up with Bilstein 5100 adjustable shocks that at the highest setting raised it 2 inches in the front. Stiffened the ride though. I also added a block in the rear to get more rake so it sits perfect with my trailer hooked up.

DO NOT FORGET TO ADJUST THE HEADLIGHTS!!!!

Yes, I get flashes high beams all the time and it doesn’t handle nearly as well either. Feels loose on the turns.

Did you angle your headlights down? I had to angle mine down a bit but I’ll still get flashed.
