Unhappy Bummer

Im a little upset that i cant put a 2-3" suspension lift on my truck without taking out another loan,,very expensive from what i have found,,$1,400-$1,600,,way to much,,if anyone knows of a cheaper price please let me know,,I have the 1997 F-250 4x4 lariat,,7 lug,5.4,,new F-150 body style,,I cant even find a true dual exhaust using my cats,, I put 285/75/16,BFG A/T K/O..on my stock rims looks good no probs,,but still want to lift it,,might just go with body lift..lol if i can find that

dewey...

.crank the tortion bars and put airbags on the rear ....or re-arc the springs....that will give you 2-3 inches without changing shocks, pitman arms,and brake lines....very cheap...I have done this with my f250ld with 285's and it looks great!...the only difference is I have factory airride on mine that I have adjusted to the max height.....good luck.

yup you can get aftermarket air ride or load levelling systems...they are great....and not too expensive 250-300 $$.
They are nice because they don't affect the ride like springs do.

try it you'll love it!
