Kryptonite Stage 2 Leveling Kit with Fox Performance Elite Shocks for 2017-2026 Ford Super Duty F250/F350

The Kryptonite Stage 2 Leveling Kit with FOX Performance Elite 2.5 DSC Shocks is a premium front suspension system engineered specifically for 2017+ Ford Super Duty diesel trucks. Designed for owners who demand exceptional ride quality, superior damping control, and maximum adjustability, this package combines Kryptonite’s heavy-duty suspension components with FOX’s flagship Performance Elite shock technology to create a suspension system equally at home towing heavy loads, exploring backroads, or tackling rough terrain. At the core of the system are Kryptonite’s dual-rate coil springs, engineered around the unique weight and suspension requirements of the Super Duty platform. Unlike generic leveling springs, these coils improve ride comfort and suspension compliance while maintaining the load-carrying capability these trucks are known for. Whether towing heavy trailers, hauling equipment, or driving unloaded, the spring design provides a smooth, controlled ride without compromising capability. Providing unmatched suspension performance are FOX Performance Elite 2.5 DSC remote reservoir shocks. Built around a large 2.5-inch aluminum shock body with external remote reservoirs, these shocks offer substantially increased oil capacity for superior heat dissipation and fade resistance during extended towing, high-speed travel, and demanding off-road use. FOX’s Internal Floating Piston (IFP) design separates the shock oil from the high-pressure nitrogen chamber to maintain consistent damping performance, while the Dual Speed Compression (DSC) adjusters allow independent tuning of low-speed and high-speed compression damping. This enables drivers to fine-tune ride quality, body control, and impact absorption for varying loads, terrain, and driving conditions without compromising overall performance. To maintain proper steering geometry after leveling, the kit includes Kryptonite 2-degree caster correction shims. These precision-machined shims restore factory caster angles lost during the leveling process, improving straight-line stability, steering feel, return-to-center characteristics, and overall driver confidence. Billet aluminum bump stop spacers are also included to maintain proper suspension travel and prevent the shocks from bottoming out before the factory bump stops engage. Combined with premium hardware throughout, this complete suspension system delivers exceptional ride quality, precise steering response, race-inspired suspension performance, and outstanding durability. Whether your Super Duty spends its time towing, traveling long distances, or venturing off the pavement, the Kryptonite Stage 2 Leveling Kit with FOX Performance Elite 2.5 DSC Shocks provides the control, adjustability, and confidence expected from a premium suspension upgrade. 2.5” vs 3.5” Lift Explained Ford changed the factory ride height of the Super Duty platform starting in 2020, lowering the front suspension approximately 1” compared to 2005-2019 trucks. Because of this, the exact same Kryptonite leveling spring will produce different lift heights depending on model year. 2005-2019 Super Duty trucks will see approximately 2.5” of front lift 2020+ Super Duty trucks will see approximately 3.5” of front lift No changes were made to the spring itself, the newer trucks simply start from a lower factory ride height. 2020+ Tremor models already include a factory lifted suspension package and sit approximately 2” taller than a standard Super Duty from the factory. On Tremor-equipped trucks, these springs will provide approximately 1.5” of additional front lift.
