93 f350, need help with lift

Hello, I have a 93 f350 that I'm thinking of putting a lift in. I'm on a very tight budget so I'm thinking of doing what my friend did and putting in lift blocks and longer u bolts. I've looked and lift block kits but they all say they're for the rear. Does anyone know of any block kits that I can get for front and rear with 4 in or so of lift? If not any suggestions on getting them made? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Using blocks on the front is unwise. It will change the dynamics of the steering which could be unsafe. 4in Suspension Lift Kit for 86-98 Ford 4wd F-350 Pickup [491-86-98.20] | Rough Country Suspension Systems®

Not sure if you can buy the front set up separate

I understand being on a budget, and have done many lift's over the years, but their is a reason you won't find front lift blocks.

welcome to FTE.
front lift blocks are illegal, and extremely dangerous.
if you get in an accident, you will be in a world of trouble, and if you get roadside inspected the truck will be impounded and you will get a stack of tickets.

You don't think that an alignment would fix that problem?
