lifting

Hi there i've been mostly a lurker for a while but getting back to working on my truck.on my 86 f150 4x4 looking to raise the front end only (2.5') seems like nobody can get spring spacers for this thing-any ideas as to where in s'toon .supposedly the kit for 04 f150 works but is expensive and i won't need all the parts.thanks in advance,

andy

Since that truck has a TTB, to lift it correctly would require new springs and drop brackets since raising it over 1 1/2" it will eat tires like candy.

Have you tried some of the local spring shops? Stop in and see what they have to say on the subject.
