Suspension please help!
Hello trying to find a way to fit 325/60r/20s on my 05 f250 6.0 2wd without installing a 6inch lift , I’ve been researching and I literally can’t find any other size except for 6 inches . If anyone knows where I could find a 3.5 to 4inch lift that would help tremendously!!
the rear tires fit perfect no problem , I’m ordering a 3in front leveling kit and was wondering through anyone’s expertises would that solve the problem with minor trimming ?

The biggest issue is to lift the front end (the back is cake, just some blocks and your done or a new set of leafs) but how do you lift it? Well longer springs or coil spacers, ok great, You could even get a set of the 6" lift springs and cut them for 3 or 4" of lift. NOW, you install them and find out, WTF the tires are tipped top to bottom, and the steering is wonky. You need drop brackets to lower the twin beams to correct suspension and a drop pitman arm for steering geometry. I have no idea where your going to find the drop beam brackets. Maybe you can find a monobeam axle for the front of the truck, then your dealing with a much simpler system since you can use all the 4wd lift parts to lift it, but then why do that? Just do a 2 to 4 conversion. In the end raising a twin beam ford is a PITA.
