Hello, I have got a 66 f100 4x4 manual 4 spd. Looking to get a few inches of lift on the truck. Don't want to throw to much money into it, wanted to put a body lift, but don't see a kit specifically for this truck. Any suggestions, i know they make a 66 bronco kit. Thanks for all the help

 

this is how most body lifts look to me


you could relocate your spring mounts downward
very common and cost effective

 

My 65 f250 4x4 clears 35x12.5 with ease and without a lift.

 

Anthony - LOL You are so right. I'm sure that truck will walk through the deepest ruts with no issues.

Suspension lift not only looks better, it will allow you better clearance if you decide to go off road. Just be aware that if you go to high, your steering geometry changes resulting in the need for a drop pitman arm etc.

 

You are forgetting his is a 66 F100 4x4 that is a whole different animal than your 65 F250 4x4. You have leaf springs front and rear. Sipe33s truck will have leaf springs in the rear and coils up front. Generally the stock 66 4x4 that I have seen sit quite a bit lower than your leaf sprung truck. The 66 F100 4x4 is the only odd man out in the 61-66 factory 4x4 line.

 

Thank you for the information Im fairly new to these trucks and I dont know much about them.

Sipe33, lets see a pic of that truck!

 

Thanks guys, I will get a pic of the truck up here shortly. Didn't pay that much for the truck and trying not to put a lot into lifting it. But it def. is squatter with the coils up front. Just trying to get a little taller without putting a ton of money into the suspension. Thing is a beast though, I live at 10,000 feet and it starts right up even in the winter mornings. Got to love it.

 

Got a pic? sipe33.

 

Did you ended up lifting the truck sipe33? If so, any pictures of how it turned out looking?

 

How'd it go? I'm looking to lift the front an inch or two on my 66 f 100 4x4 to level it out.
