2002 f150 3 inch lift

I am looking at putting this lift kit on my truck http://www.ebay.com/itm/Crown-Suspension-1997-2003-Ford-F150-3-F-3-R-Lift-Kit-Adj-Torsion-Bars-Block/181322865166?_trksid=p5713.c100044.m3207&_trkparms=ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140502135644%26meid%3D9b7e9a4168ef4b1992ce01e64cd15551%26pid%3D100044%26would 3 inches be noticeable or not really? Also would I have to get new brake lines and get an alignment?

One thing you have to do is picture what is happening on the front axle. The center pumpkin will stay stationary and the wheel / tire will drop 3 inches. That will make the axle half shafts go to a much more drive angle. Jack the truck up with a floor jack under the frame and let the tire drop 3 inches. That is basically what your going to get... The tire is going to angle out at the top and in at the bottom. Yes you will need an alignment. The brake line will be stretched a little .......... might be a good idea to get a longer hose.... also I would call the company and ask about the spring / shock on the truck. Possibly they should be longer also.
