I have a 86 f250 looking to lift 4 to 6the inches.some one told me about a shackle lift but can't find anything. Then I looked for leaf springs im not looking to make this a show truck just want to take it into the woods ever once in awhile so im trying to go budget any help to go as cheap as I can would be great thanks

 

is it a 4x4? And you can always do lift blocks on the back end for not a whole lot of $$$

 

1980-96 Ford Truck/bronco - Lift Kits - 4" 4wd Lift Kits F250,f350

Here are some options if you are 4wd.

 

You could go with a Sky Shackle reversal.
92-97 F-250/F-350 front shackle reversal - Sky's Off-road Design
I looked into this for my F350 but i think i will fab one up in school this fall. Its designed for 92-97s so apparently you would have to box in the front of your frame, if you have a crumple zones on your truck
