Ok, I think I've decided how much and how to raise my '95 F150 SC 4x4. I'm only going to run 31" tires, and I don't do any major offroading, mostly going for looks (yeah i know )

Anyway, I'm looking at the 2" coils from bronco graveyard to raise the front, they come with the adjustable alignment bushings so I should be ok there (or I could go with the Daystar spacers). In either case, my question is, how tall of a block do I get for the rear of the truck? I like the rake that it has now, and want to maintain that. Do I just put a 2" block in the rear, or would that make it sit level??

Help me out here guys, I'm new to this lift thing!!

THanks!

Well you already have 2" blocks in the back as it is now. You'd need a 4" block or get 4" lift springs and get rid of the blocks completely. The other route is to add a leaf to the spring pack but that will stiffen up the ride a bit. The problem with blocks is that it will increase axle wrap. The best way to go is with new leaf springs and no blocks but that's expensive.

 

All you need is bigger blocks, and in turn longer U-bolts. They are fun to take off you will need to soak them with penetrating oil. I bet you could get away with just air shocks, or maybe even overloads, or add-a leafs. The easiest is air shocks.
