Talking Lift Options for 03' F-250

I am a proud new truck owner with an itch to lift my truck. I have a few questions for the experts out there. I don't want anyhting really high, I just want to add a little beefiness to the look. I am pretty sure I am going to go with a 3" lift with 33's on the stock 16" wheels. My questions are as follows: Does anyone have a picture of thier truck with the same lift? Is it worth leveling out the front end, or is it totally a personal opinion thing (I think mine looks pretty level and I tow quite a bit)? I just want to get a feel for what the truck will actually look like. Also, I only have 4" clearance on my garage right now and my wife has stated that the truck will not be lifted if it does not fit in the garage. The way I calculate it, it will be close. Any feedback and/or pics are greatly appreciated. Thanks

ok,
im glad to see you liftin your rig. if you have 4" of heigth left and you goin with a 3" lift and 33'', then no, you wont clear. because(and im amagining)your going from stock tires to 33'' which will be at least 2'' taller plus the 3" lift. thats 5" at minimum. and even saying that your 33''s are only 1'' taller than stock, you still will rub if indeed you only have 4" to clear. and im sorry that your wife put down that rule for you about not being able to lift it if it cant fit in the garage. that sucks. but this is what i'd do in your situation. convince her to let you do it and get a 4" lift so maybe, just maybe after these 33''s wear down you would have the option to put on 35's with that lift. they'll sqeeze in there. good luck!!!!!!

My truck will rub at 6'10" across the roof. Check MY PICS for a look at a 3" shackle kit with 33" tires.

I would be ordering a new garage door. I had the Edge 2" mini spring pack. The truck looked good, but after seeing and driving a SD with the 4.5" and 315.75.16, I upgraded...BTW truck sits outside.
