Skyjacker lift kit ?'s

After all the great folks on here steered me towards what i should get for a lift kit for roughly $1250 for a full 6" class 1 system with replacement springs i am going with that. My question is the site dosent tell me what exactly comes with the kit but gives opitions on what is required/or optional. Heres the link to what i mean Ford, Skyjacker Suspension Lifts for Ford 80-96 F-150 Pickup 2WD Kit Standard Brackets with Blocks & U-Bolts and/or Add-A-Leafs I plan on going with a single steering stabilizer, nitro shocks and what else will i need with the kit? its a 95 f150 ext. cab 5.8 4x4 and has a front sway bar. Thanks in advance for the advice!

The only other parts you'll need are a pitman arm, and ask when you order if it comes with shocks but I'm pretty sure Skyjacker kits do.

Yeah i am getting the system with Nitro shocks, is the pitman arm the only other thing i need? it says something about lowering brackets for the front sway bar?

Me and my neighbor put a 6inch skyjacker lift on his 91 f250 4wd and it came with everything needed to install. Just double check when you order on the pitman arm. His might have been class 2 which didn't require any welding. Hopefully this helps ya out

And the sway bar brackets will need dropped. You can order those to. But you don't need your sway bar on. but it does make for a bette ride with it on

if you are going with a 6" lift then you will need longer brake hoses , front and rear !
