I've had a leveling kit from Truxxx on my last two trucks. A 2.5"F/1.25"R on my old 2008 Sport Trac (it's the only lift available for those) and a 1.5" front level on my 2020 Ranger. Other sizes are available.
These are strut spacers, laser-cut powder-coated steel and very stout. Cost is reasonable and they often have a coupon on their website. I would recommend professional installation by an alignment shop since you have to get a front end alignment anyway. It's not as easy as the YouTube videos make it look.
I had the kit on my Sport Trac for over 80,000 miles. No issues with the kit itself but I learned with the 2.5" lift it's best to add longer sway bar end links and the upper ball joints would last about two years. Would have cost less in the end to get the BTF upper control arms. The 1.5" has been on my Ranger for two years with no problems.
