inexpensive lift???

I want a 4" lift on my diesel 2000 f250 4x4 and was wondering whats the cheapest way of going towards it. I dont want a body lift and Ill probally be using bilstein shocks. I just wanna fit 35's on there.

the cheapest way would probably be to go with a hanger and shackle lift

I was able to fit 35's with just a leveling kit off ebay. Add a leaves are pretty cheap. If you want a lift, I agree with MTDewX, you get what you pay for. I'd do something simple from skyjacker, or even rough country. All the big names mostly come from the same place, anyway.

Well I only want a 4" cause its the highest I can go legally here in Jersey and I want a little more than a leveling kit. I just cant see spending like $900 for only a small lift. What shocks do you guys recommend?

For good, cheap shocks, I've always had good luck with rancho. 5000's or 9000's depending on what you want to spend. They may not ride like a caddy, but they're tough, and I think they feel good.
