leveling a f350
Hey Folks,
A buddy of mine just picked up a f350 4WD, 4 door. He is running (I think) 33s 12.50 and wants to pick up the front end to level it. Anyone have an opinion on which lift is better or worse?
Thanks, Steve

I'd go with a hanger and shackle lift.
Fabtech has a 3.5" that is a replacement hanger and a bracket to relocate the stock shackle.
Edge has a 3" that is a replacement hanger and a full replacement boxed shackle.
I also have heard good things regarding the RCD 2" which is a replacement hanger and I believe a replacement shackle as well but I am not positive on that.
I'd stay away from some of the hanger and shackle lifts that are nothing more than spacers and use the stock hanger and shackle.
Replacement springs or spring packs are also available.
Whatever route he decides to use to lift his F-350 I'd recommend looking into Bilstein 5100 shocks all the way around.
Hope this helps.
