SAS lift?

1994 f150 reg cab long bed
Got done converting it to 4wd using TTB but my buddy just picked up a 78 f250 with a 9" in th rear and 44 in the front so im gonna be pitching the TTB and swapping those onto my truck.
My question is, Do i just peice together the lift?
6" lift springs, 6" rear lift leafs, drop pitman arm, extended radius arms, and longer shocks? (i know ill need ext. brake lines, driveshaft work ect.) but as far as lift goes, where can you buy all that stuff and peice it together?

Thanks in advance

Did you convert to leafs in the front? The 78 F250 used a leaf suspension. If its a F150, then it will be an easier swap, but you will still have to do some custom fab work to make it all fit.

both the F-150 and F-250 came w/ dana 44 fronts but only the F-150 came w/ a 9in rear... F-250s rears were dana 60 and i think some had the 70 but not positive... they also came w/ a dana 60 front i think they where the camper specials
