Stock height

So im curious - my truck is a 1500 with a 6inch pro comp lift with 35s. thats enough height for me lol

the stock 2017 f250 looks pretty tall and I saw one at the dealership that they say has a 6 inch procomp lift on 38s and it looks huge compared to my truck.

If I am looking for a lift similar to my 1500. Would a 4 inch lift with 37s be in the ball park? Of hitting 6inchs. Because that lift on the super duty at the dealership looked like a 8 inch lift instead.

Anyone know ?

Based on my F350, compared to 1500s, 150s, I would say a front level would be same is as a 6 inch lift. Go f350 the rear blocks are 2.5 inch taller than the f250 rear blocks.

I can't remember the threads but there were some guys that posted their 6" lift trucks next the the new 17's and there wasn't much of a difference. Maybe a 3.5" front with 1" back or just a level.

I would take your truck to a ford dealership and place it right next to one of the new 17's and see.

My F350 SB CC 4x4 is 60" to top of bed at rear for reference. My 08' with 4 1/2 lift and 35" tires was 60" to top of bed at rear.

Stock 2017 side by side a 2008 with 6" lift and 35" tires. Exact same models and everything.

When you say "exact" same models...you do realize the back one is a long bed...and the front one is short.....

You are correct and the old has a canopy and wood box liner new one is bed liner. New one also has cooled seat, lane assist, power rear window, massive sun roof, etc...

But I believe we are comparing ride height and a long bed does not make your truck taller?
