thats a 6in suspension with no leveliing kit, you can buy them from GM with a lift like that and they are a peace of ****t. GM parts, no aftermarket parts. and 35" tires as well.

But do you know of anywhere I can get a 6" suspension lift for a 2wd 99 F-150?

Try roughcountry.com (RCX)

but 2wd are hard to find lifts for. i would just make the parts.

How can I make a lift??
Or how could I get a custom one and would it be expensive?

Rough country has only a 2" leveling kit and a 3" body lift, so thats 5"

Does anyone have a pic of how that would look?
Still want a 6" suspension

I really like Rus' truck. Looks sick

I know he has done extra stuff to it to, but I like the lift, 4in. looks good. Guessing he has a 4wd so is a 4wd with a 4" lift like a 2wd with a 6" lift?

I found a 7.5" lift by fabtech its $1700 tho. But would 7.5" be to big? Would 35s look small on it?

I want to get some new rims a lift and tires before summer is over..I'm getting the truck either wed. or thurs. I'll post its stock photos.

Let know what YALL think of the lift, thanks

Well coming from one 2wd'er to another, anything more than 4"'s on a otherwise stock 2wd is really kinda...well unnecessary. Mainly cuz of the cost - gain ratio. Because your looking at around 2K or close to it and never really get any benefit out of it like 4X4 can. Granted 95% of lifted 4X4's never go any more offroading than a random field or puddle of mud. But anyway, 3.5" spindle lift with a 3" body lift stacked on it would look pretty sweet, and much cheeper. I mean ALOT cheaper. Less than 1K and your getting 6.5" of lift

3.5" Spindles & 2" Leveling Springs will get you 5.5" in the front. Use an add a leaf in the rear and maybe a 2" or 3" block to get the rest of the lift you want in the rear.

Well below is the link to the 3.5" fabtech spindle lift kit, as you can see its almost 1k, then the rough country body lift 3" cost $250. Link below also.
So thats like $1200 and where the link is for the fabtech it also shows they have the 7.5" for $1500, so would it be smarter to just pay extra $300?
Or are their cheaper, good quality spindle kits?

I also might get a shop to install this, so would it be cheaper to get them to install one 7.5" lift or the spindle and the body lift?

Edit: Or should I get the 3" rough country lift and 3" body lift for about 600? Rough Country Suspension lift is on same page as the FabTech

fabtech makes a 7.5 for a 2wd
