can i use this lift kit on my 1983 f-350??

Ford F250 Truck Lift Kit 1980-1996 4x4 2.5" - Kits by Tuff Country

 

I dont think Ford made a 83 F350 4wd.

 

you want proof?? its on my title

 

what kind of axle up front? ttb?

 

50ttb?? i dunno... i know its the crappy ttb tho

 

sorry man.

I just woke up and my brain hasnt kicked in yet.

yeah it will work.



every once and a while I submit to my human form to roam the earth and post on the interwebs. This is the rare occasion where it is possible I could be wrong.

 

just because it's a one ton without a d60 front doesn't mean it doesn't exist, kris

 

can i do that 2.5 with out getting new D-shafts?

 

yeah it wont be a problem

 

that kit should have everything you need, complete bolt on, i do find it weird that they advertise that it will allow you to run a 33x12.50. you can do that stock, and with this kit, you should be able to fit a 35

 

well personally i dont wanna do above 32 for now...tho i have NO idea what i got now... its 285 something..

 

A 285 is pretty much a 33x11.50. 305/70 is a 33x12.50, you already have bigger than you want to do on there... LOL
With a 2" lift you should be able to fit a 35(315) easily. I have them on my PSD with no lift at all, and 80-86 trucks have more room in the wheelwells.

 

thanks for clearing that up for me. i've never owned a set of metric tires or whatever the hell scale they use.

 

ok, i jsut went and double checked the size and it is a LT235/85-16

edit: according to this page i found a 235/85 is about a 32" tire...(btw WTF is up with people use "TYRE" that **** pissed me off to no end) so im probably gonna bump it up to a 285 but thats all...i also need to figure out what trans gear i need...at 35 MPH (gauge) im doing 50 MPH road

 

god help me with my boredom
