When installing the RoadActive Suspension # RAS3611-YHD it will not raise your 2018 Ford F-150 more than 1.5 inches. Usually the increased lift is due to having leaf springs that are getting worn out, and the leaf spring enhancement kit adds pressure back to them, which will cause it to add some lift.

When installing I would also recommend that the truck is jacked up off the ground with the suspension not having any load before completing the installation.

I have provided an installation video link below.
