Suspension Lift?

Any ideas on a good suspension lift? Would like to just raise the front to match rear. Also, What size tire will look good after getting the lift? I have a 2004 f-350 crewcab with single rear wheels. Thanks for your help.
Does anyone know what this does to my warranty?

Welcome to the site.

Sounds like you are after a leveling kit, correct?

If so:
Depending on what code springs you have and what engine you have it could be a 2-3" leveling kit.

For a 2":
Edge 2" mini spring pack....about $225.00 w/o shocks.
RCD hanger and shackle...about $329.00 w/o shocks.

For a 3":
Edge 3" hanger and replacement boxed shackle...about $425.00 w/o shocks. (Also will need a 1" bumpstop spacer and new shocks.

I'd recommend going to Bilstein 5100 shocks with the SD specific valving with all of the above setups.

And I'd also look into a adjustable trac bar to keep the front axle centered.

33/12.5 tires look good with a leveling kit.....on some 8-10" aftermarket wheels.

Hope this helps.

I just had the Tuff country 2 1/2" kit put on with an additional 1 3/4" rear block. It lited me about 3" overall, kept the same shocks, cost about $400 installed. Now I'm looking for rims/tires
