Default Little Help

I was trying to achieve the stock hieght of a 250/350 4x4, just a perfect hieght in my opinion for nice stance but not and very practical and it seems even with the level and aal it seems to sit lower, any input on how to achieve that hight with out going to a 4in lift? I have not replaced the stock tires yet.

Tires are about your only other option. I'm pretty sure the frames on the Super Duties are taller than on the F-150, so that's going to make them taller, in addition to the height gained by heavier suspension.

Bigger tires will help. 35s should fit. I would try to avoid wide tires though. I would go with a 285/75/17 if 17" wheel or a 285/75/18 if you have 18s. I agree that the F350s with the heavy duty front suspension package sits perfect.

Thanks guys, the stance is perfect and I would've loved to get one but the price of a super duty is insane now, especially if you want the oil burner. I was shopping for 35's but was getting scared of the hit people said they were taking in mpg's , I have the 18in wheels. Most of the time I am totally against this but do they make any really low profile body spacers that would work? Something that is just enough to get it sitting the same height that would not effect the performance of the truck to much?
