The GM's sit level. But I hate to mess with my Ford for fear of throwing out the suspension and anti-roll systems.

Same interest here, but I’ll likely leave it stock. There seems to be a lot of options for 07-14’ Expeditions. The 07-14 trucks definitely have the front down or vice versus (back up) a bit if you look from behind the truck. I’d think Ford did this for a reason and I also wonder if it would screw with the AdvanceTrac or IWEs and handling in general. What’s the favored system for an 07-14’ truck?

Readylift is going to be your best quality spacer kit. Most expensive at $250.
If you are wanting to just level the front I would go with Bilstein 5110 adjustable front struts from an F150.

I am going to run Bilsteins up front lifting it 2” and readylift rear spacers lifting the rear 2”.

Pretty much all trucks have a bit of a rake to them for towing purposes.
Leveling the front is not going to cause you any issues in handling or mess with your roll systems. Now the California lean I think they call it, front noticeably higher than the rear, will.
I can’t even see the rake on these Expeditions it is so minimal. I measured it and it is there but I can’t tell with just my eyes.
You want a noticeable factory rake my 2000 Silverado Z71 is very very noticeable. This rides on Bilstein 4600s no lift no level and the rake is always apparent. Though she is soon to get Fox Shocks and a more aggressive tire.

She cleans up quite nicely for 19 years old.

I think towing would have a more pronounced effect on the computer controlled traction and roll control systems than an inch or two of suspension height change. And, simply putting an adult of average weight in the 2nd row really changes the CoG, and there's no way the AT or RSC will know the difference.
