lol what drag? its' got 32s on it, not 40's. 9 inches of lift and 32s is a big gap, was it all built right, if not your in for some big troubles. I wouldnt go with it, just because of the v6, just not enough umph if you want to wheel it. I've got a 05 f150 with a v6, but its a 2wd daily driver, so its got a purpose, to save money (mpg) and haul stuff. Its got some *****, but not what you need for spinning tires in mud.

If it only has 32's then drag really isn't an issue.If,howeveryou decide to go larger on the tires with it you might come up a little short in the power department. You can compensate with gears to a certain degree but .............there is NO substitute for cubic inches. 4.11 should be good for moderate play.(no deep mud boggin) and 3.73's would be fine for 99% streetin'. Ifing it was ME, I'd probably pass and find one with a V-8. Lift doesnt cost as much as a new motor and tranny.

matt, if you leave the wind resistance the lower springs cause, its the same wind resistance, whether your a mile high, or an inch. if it has 32s and 4.XX or greater gears, that 6 cylinder would more than happily wind up and move it down the road with no problem. Now when you in a mud hole, wind resistance isnt a factor, because your moving how fast?
