1981 F350 4x4 Front Add-a-Leaf
Looking at doing a Skyjacker 2in front Add-a-leaf on my F350.
Skyjacker Suspensions F35G - Skyjacker Softride Add-A-Leafs - Overview - SummitRacing.com
Anyone have any experience with these? I am currently running 35's with the stock suspension so I'm hoping that the add-a-leaf will allow 37's.

Thanks for the warning. I expected that might be a problem, but I thought I might see if anyone else had actually experienced it. If the camber is off a little bit it's not big deal as the truck rarely sees the street.

Good thing I logged in.
I just got done with my front add-a-leaf's on my 86 F-250 4x4. I will NEVER do it again,and thats why the front add-a-leafs have been removed and are sitting in the trunk of my saturn.
If your front end is sagging,then you "might" be able to get away with it. If not,your camber will be so jacked up,its a pain in the *** to get it correct. They dont make a ball joint sleeve with enough camber adjustment to make mine have the correct camber. If your going for just lift,then I would save up and buy the correct lift kit with the appropriate brackets for the TTB front end.
Your more than welcome to try,and I would be more than happy to sell you my front add-a-leafs for pretty damn cheap. If you need help,let me know,I JUST did this last week. And I have some short cuts that will save you time and some cash.

Thanks Man! That's all I needed to hear.
I very well may just hack up my fenders to make the 37s fit, its main purpose is for the mud any how. If I do much of a lift I'm not going to be able to get the rig in my shop. Way too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer to work on it outside just to have a couple more inches of lift.
