95ford5.0

Dad bought me a lift from a junkyard for a 1995 f150 4x4 5.0. It looks great but running into some issues. First of all I CANNOT FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLLY get this thing to be in alignment. No shops will do it because the degree is so off. Also I asked a local off road shop on what do to for the rear (only pulled front of lift) and they told me to put 2 inch blocks in the rear because ford came with stock blocks. I was always told growing never to stack blocks to blocks on the axle. Any opinions on this?

get blocks, your stock block should be 2" so get a 4" i installed a rough country lift on my 250 and they had me stack blocks in the rear, but they are small blocks. you can also get add-a-leafs for the rear.

any pictures of how your truck sits now?

Stock is 2 inch and aftermarket is 2 inch so that's the 4 inch in the back but here's the thing.... My dad thinks it's a four inch lift... I think it's a 6 inch... We both have no idea lol I will try to find a pic

I'll bet the truck that the lift came off of was badly damaged and the lift cross member was probably damaged also...

I'm running 31 tires and will upload pics tonight. I pulled lift off broncho. It had no damage just blown head gasket. Whoever junked it was actually quite dumb it had everything done to it.

31s...im pretty sure you got a 4" lift if that, 31s would be tiny on a 6" even a 4" they are a little small.
