Question Need answer ASAP....

hey,
i have an '89 F150 straight six,5 speed, 2 wheel drive. i want to put a big enough lift where i can run 33 inch all terrains. i got the front springs from a '85 4x4 bronco. from what i understand that will raise me 2 inches up front...is this correct??will that be enough lift for the 33's? and if so, will they rub any?? any help would be greatly appreciated, im running out of time and i want to be sure before i go buy new tires. thanks a lot guys,
Mike

No you need atleast 4" of lift on a 2wd truck to fit 33's. Look at the red truck in my gallery, it's got a picture where it's all muddy...that's a 2wd with 4" lift and 32" tires.
