2wd lift for 97 f250? Diesel?

Would love to find a 2-4 inch lift for my truck. Any ideas where to find one. It's 2wd 1997 f250 ext cab short bed with 7.3.

Yeah basically looks. I wasn't able to find a 4x4 and don't drive off road but would like to put a bigger wheel and tire combo. New to the forum but really like how you need to explain yourself! It's not as if lift kits for 2wd are a new concept. Maybe the better terminology would be a "leveling kit for the front"

Im sure you can find a lift for it, rear should be the same a 4x4, but you mentioned leveling the front out, are you looking just to do a level kit on it? and how big tire;s are you wanting to go?

and don't let Dan's comments ruffle your feathers. he is our resident idiot, and is not happy unless he insults at least one person a day.

it just gets tiring when folks come in and ask for hand outs. with the way the internet is nowadays, if you have a question it HAS already been answered or the answer is a few clicks away. if it was a tech related thing it would have been different.

he came at me first. it was self defense, and i have a great lawyer on retainer

you are so full of puppy muffins.

although i do think it is a good choice of profession to keep you out of trouble, since you can not keep out of trouble on your own.

Well look at that. The clown that knows it all and drives 4wd station wagon is wrong. Learn to read. I bet you think if your the first one done with a test in school you win?? The link you posted clearly states not for diesel. What now? I have looked for a kit and keep ending up with the same results which is why I turned to this forum.
I apologize if that offended anyone other than the obvious expert.

I will accept an apology from the Chester mustached profile pic user whenever he gets ready. I don't care how cool he thinks he is by cleverly telling me to "stfu".
