97 f150 noob lift
wanna lift mt truck a little or cheaply its a 4.6l 4x4 with cab
it has many miles and pings on hills , if i do decide on a better lift then torsion keys i can always transfer to a new truck, an links to these lifts or price or experience post plz.
tires are kelly safari tsr lt285/70/r17 what size are these?
also the rear has blocks with a shoe thing stickin inward are these stock?
if i get blocks do i have to stack them or will they be taller enough to lift it?
if i wrench the front up a inch and get 2 or 3 inch rear blocks will it need longer shocks? the 3 inch block is angled
if i should have shocks too is this kit a good one http://www.ebay.com/itm/1997-2003-4W...-/380849494408
why does it say 2.5 inch but it has only a 1 inch block?

2. I am not sure on shocks, some people have told me yes, some have told me no.
3. I've heard blistein shocks are the way to go (I think I spelled that right lol)
4. I'm getting a 4" lift kit for about 500 bucks, the reason is, I'm getting it used off of a parts truck. People don't recommend this, but in my opinion, if the other truck ran on it, why shouldn't mine?

theres a lift kit on ebay thats 3 inches in the front can you really crank it up that high? do these keys allow it to go higher then the stock one?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Crown-Suspen...92b07a&vxp=mtr
the 2.5 rough country seems like the best deal, i asked the seller why its only a one inch block and he wasnt sure, if i dont need the shocks, i found a 3 inch angled block.
i wouldnt mind the rear higher thats what gets hung up the most
how high can i crank up the front with stock keys i think i herd its 2 inches

I stacked the 4" block included with my zone lift on top of the tapered factory block with the bump stops on it. But, I welded them together to function as a single unit. Your absolutely right on not stacking blocks. It can be very dangerous. ::

it looks like all the blocks are ment to be stacked, are there blocks that replace the stock one completely, so i would need around a 6inch block to lift 2 inches, angled would be nice too.
i may get a 2 inch block and a shackle for angle and exta half inch of lift its a 1 inch
shackel
also my front end is squeaky i checked the lower ball joints and they wont move side to side like in youtube videos ,when i pry it goes up and down abit?
the tire shop says its all bad and wont do alignment with out changeing it all for 2500 i feel no play inthe steering, i checked the pitman arm for play
