Suspension lift for 1987 F150
I got a 87' F150 and want to get it lifted at least 6". I want the height to be even in the front and the back, and it is not right now. Do I need to get a front leveling kit and a 6" suspension kit, or what? And are 35s the right size for the lift? Thanks, Alex

well when i put in a 4" rough country lift I bought a 2" coil spring spacer too and thats what made it level. If i hadnt of put that spacer in there the truck wouldnt be sitting level at all, so i dont think that the lift kit accounts for sagging front ends or not, or it may just be like that for rough country. what brand lift kit are you gettting?
