leveling & body at the same time?
I have an '88 4x4 ford f150 which i would like to lift the truck enough for 33's but also level out the truck. For a body lift, it is about $200 with bumper brackets and grade 8 bolts. Is there a way to level the truck out? Larger coil springs? shaving blocks in rear?
thanks,
Josh

body lift = dumb idea.
suspension lift = good idea.
You can get leveling coils or you can get a lift and they will usually level the ruck when you lift them. ie- a complete 4" lift lifts the front 4" but lifts hte rear 1.5" or something... oh, btw dont do a body lift.
EDIT: DONT DO A BODY LIFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i'm still in college and steadily working on graduating and i still seem to work on my junk, i just look for ways to do things myself instead of buying kits or paying shops to do something i can do at home with a grinder and a welder
search for lifts b/c we have discussed this issue till WE are blue in the face!
