Thats what i recommend. Yeah you could stuff those 33 without a lift, but this looks better in my opinion. If you dont like the add-a-leafs, then you could get 2" blocks, or if you dont want any lift in the rear, the coil spring spacer can be sold separate for $50. This stuff is really easy to install yourself and its made by Pro-Comp, so its not cheaply made. If you want even more clearance for the tires, go with a 4" lift, but many people can fit 35s with this lift if have a 4x4.

Stay away from spacers for these trucks. Twin i beam screws everything up. If you want go find you some f250 coils in a junkyard and buy adjustable ball joints from broncograveyard. Bout the only way to lift the front without a kit. LMC also sells twin i beam drop down brackets for like $60 that are perfect for 1.5-2" of lift with the springs. Whatever you do, get it aligned. As for the rear, pull out the factory block and replace with an addaleaf. The factory block is useless in my opinion. It will be stock hieght still but your payload capacity will dramatically increase. That kind of lift is perfect. Maybe throw on a 2-3" body lift while youre at it. Will look beefy. Good luck. Any questions just ask.
Oh, total price for allll of that stuff will run you about $500, and its all quality.
As for lifts, you get what you pay for. And ive searched and searched fir good lifts for these trucks and the ebay specials suck. Broncograveyard is dedicated to this type of suspension, and their kits are amazing for these trucks. And about $900, but again, you get what you pay for.
