lift question

Have a question about a 2wd f250. I have a buddy that has a set of 8 inch coil spring. Now my question is, I have a set of 4 inch blocks and u bolts can I use the coil springs to lift the truck by either keeping them stock or cutting them. Would it work.

that high of a lift, you'll need drop down brackets for the i-beams or lengthened i-beams, the camber/caster would be way off, let alone, the tires themselves would be sucked under the truck, from i-beams being in same stock location.
