i plan on doing a body lift in the spring. but im out of ideas after that. a guy i know said to put a 4wd coil in the front but i dont know if thats smart or what so help me out guys. curently i have a 2inch coil spacer in the front and a 2inch block on the rear. and yes i know my front tires are a size bigger than my back tires. i am lookin for cheap i dont make alot of money lol.

fabtech has a 3 inch spindle lift but idk prices or anything. but can i ask whyy are your front tires smaller??

dennis_84mil

front is bigger.... i bought the back ones for the winter and didnt think about geting a 245 i just got the 235s. my front tires were shot and my buddy works at a tire shop an thought i had 245s and got me 2 245 for the front. its just like that till the snow stops. he got me a set of almost new 265s for the spring.

I would also like to know what people have done for this style truck I plan on getting a procomp 6 inch suspension lift for mine its the cheapest I have found for a 6 inch lift for this truck and its $1250

I have a fabtech 7.5 inch lift kit for 97-03 2wd f150 it would be perfect for your truck, i bought it for my 98 2wd f150, Unfortunately my girlfriend got into a wreck and totaled the truck
The lift kit is still brand new in box, i never got the chance to install it...
I'm looking to sell it if your interested, $500 takes it

You could get an 1.5" spacer up front. 2" coil springs and 3.5" lift spindles then add your body lift onto that but that would total over $500. I wish I had the money for Dootson's fabtech kit though...if you can swing it, I'd def. get Dootson's lift kit.

I would jump on this if I were you. The only downside is the appropriate tire size for that big of a lift will cost you some $$.

Is there any way it will fit with the v6 standard cab because everywhere I look they say they dont fit it and that is what i have.

The most spring lift(spacer or actual lift spring) you can do is 2"s before you need aftermarket upper control arms. I would leave your spacer in and get a doestch or rough country lift spindle. That'l give you another 3-3.5"s so you'll be at around 5"s of lift. Then you'll need to switch to a 3" block to level the truck back out.

97-03 4x4s have torsion bars,not coil springs so that wont work.

As for the kits AFAIK they usually say that because the springs have a higher spring rate designed for lifting the V8 trucks so it could make the ride harsh.
