Will this work for me?
Hi. My name is Derrick and I'm new to this forum, as well as trucks. I am currently 18 years old and i got my first vehicle when I was 13. A 2003 mustang cobra. So, the whole truck thing is new to me. I wrapped my cobra up around a pine tree going 130 mph. After that, I bought a 2003 F150 SuperCrew 5.4L 2wd. All I have done to it so far is, bbk shorty headers, magnaflow high cats (2), true dual 2.5" pipes, cherry bomb extreme mufflers (3" in - 2.5" out), 3" tips. And Put a system in it. Im graduating in about two weeks, and part of my graduating gift is $5,000. So i have Decided Its time to lift the truck. I've been doing some research on putting a body lift and 35" wheels with 18" rims. As well as some research on horsepower and mpg gains. But my main problem is if my body lift and wheels I want will work. Here's what I want:
3" pa body lift
2" front coil spacer (leveling kit)
18" moto metal mo961 rims (satin black)
35" nitto mud grappler tires (35x12.5x18)

Oh, and by the way. The truck is completely stock right now, besides the exhaust and sound system. And I do believe the bolt pattern is 5x135mm correct?

Selling the 2wd isn't an option as it is a daily driver, not a play toy. I already have my play toy, a '89 Yota with a 350 and 400 turbo trans lifted on 40s that my dad gave me a few years back. So this truck won't be for play, just a looker. So I should stick with the 33x12.5x18?
