97 F150 4X4 leveling kit

confused........I'm wanting to lift my 97 F150 4x4 just enough to get 33" or 35" tires. The cheapest way I found was a leveling lift kit. On ebay I saw a kit for $139 and said it lifts 2.5" and enough for 35's, and was for "97 Ford F150 4x4. Problem I have is, when I look at lift web sites, none of them have leveling lift kits for that year in a 4x4, only 2wd.
Can somebody set me straight, or any advice would be great!!

drop your spring mounts down on your frame and you can do it for much cheaper! just remember to lengthen the shocks and brake lines too!

You can clear 33s stock with minor trimming on the plastic on your front bumper, or in the case of my '99 no trimming what-so-ever.

I don't think there is any way 35s would clear with a leveling kit. I know my 33s stuffed my fenders pretty good. Take a look at my gallery and look at my '99 Photos, that will give you an idea of 33s anyway.
