Did you try Jeff's Bronco Graveyard. Also you could have a spring company make you a custom set of springs for the same cost as any kit. Jeff's also offers a variety of adjustable steering components to go with any lift size.

Skyjacker makes lifts for the 67 thru 72 trucks. I have a 4-inch system installed on my truck. Check out my gallery for photos. I still need to add the "add-a-leaf" to the rear. I'll get the part numbers for you.

OK, I have part numbers. These are for a F-100 4X4 and is a 4-inch lift kit. Skyjacker part number is 174EPK. (Part number break down: Front Coils #174 and rear "Add-A-Leafs" are #R225) They also have kits for F-250. You will have to check on shocks; not sure if they come in the kit. Superlift and Tuff Country may also carry kits for these trucks. Check their websites.

I have some photos of the suspension. It looks like I have not posted them yet. I'll try to get them up. As I was going thru Skyjacker's website, I am almost certain that I saw lift kits for the F-250. Perhaps I am mistaken.

well if ya want to save some cash use chevy rear spring mounts that will give ya atleast 4 more inches of lift and with the stock high boy 4 inch block that is a 8 inch lift and for the front you can eather get them r arched or custom make some drop mounts for your springs and that way you will still have a stock ride buy a drop arm for your steering and call it a day
