2WD lift kits

I guess people don't lift 2WD trucks, because I'm having a hard time finding a suspension lift for my crewcab. I was somewhat debating lifting it a little bit, but I guess the decision has been made *for* me LMAO.

93, F350 2wd crewcab.

I could *make* a kit, but I'd rather not go through that if I don't have to.

Anyone know if a kit?

Thanks

www.autofab.com can whip one up for you w/o using drop brackets, etc....you just have to e-mail John w/ you application.

Thanks guys for the leads, I'll explore during the week when businesses are open.

At the moment, but it's leaving for a stroked 460. Plus the weight of superbumper, the homemade turbo manifolds, the turbos themselves, the dual alternator and dual battery configurations (once I get there), I figure a lift kit for a diesel truck will have the truck sit correctly rather than sag.

Why, want a 351?

Guess I'll probably have to fab something.

The rear is easy... change or re-arch springs. big whoop.

Front, well, it appears that the independant front attaches to what looks like a big crossmember. Make new crossmember? Triangulate to frame rail? Move steering box down same distance?

Looks easy.

Back burner project anyway... I have a dash, a 500cid, exhaust manifolds, and a dually rear to finish first.
