How much is your dad willing to spend? Is he buying wheels and tires too?

That's what it sounds like. OP, do a little research to compare prices and quality, there is a post above this one with a RC price to give you an idea of what one costs. Don't go with something so cheap that you will have issues with fitment or performance. As already asked, what's the rush? Good luck.

Default Thanks So Much Guys!

Thank you guys for giving me feedback and yes daddys money im only 17 and its the last thing hes going to do to my truck then the rest is on me. Ive been told that not to get rough country people said it rides rough.. is that true? I have a leveling kit on my 2006 f150 xlt 4x4 5.4L amd its on 33" bfgoodrich all-terrain ko1s with 18 inch rims. How high would i need to go i think it would be easy to fit 35s with 4 inch maybe im wrong. If its easier if someone could text me i would appreciate it MY NUMBER IS ( 404-953-3327 ]. The reaso im in a hurry is that we put 2in wheel spacers on and now it scraps on my fender flare so i need to get it lifted soon. Thanks again for giving me info. Please get back to me.

Take out the spacers so it doesn't scrape? I've got 34's on mine with 2-1/2" level, stock 17" rims and no rubbing anywhere.

The only thing I didn't like when my kit came in (well after me and a buddy installed the lift) was the rear shocks it comes with. I think the company could do a little better than those shocks because IMO they don't last very long but I'm still pleased with the lift. Whatever "suspension" lift you go with remember to retighten every bolt after several hundred miles or maybe after a couple hundred but make sure you do that. I would say Rough Country and if pops is paying then order that sucker now. Keep in mind you will need/want bigger tires to compensate for the higher adjustment.

dude you gotta do ur own research because lift kits are all different. Some are made for daily driven and some are made for specially off-road so do some research we don't know what u do with your truck
