Do i have the right combination?
[updated:LAST EDITED ON 21-Nov-01 AT 03:22 PM (EST)]Hey everyone! I'm a new user and this is my first posting so bear with me? My question is...I just bought a 1999 f150 ext cab sport 4x4 4.6l 5 spd last week and i've been looking at all the major manufacturers of suspension and body lifts and here's what i've come up with. I want to install a rancho 4" suspension lift with the rs 5000 shocks and a performance 3" body lift along with a set of 35" pro comp xterra's on 16x10 eagle 1439's underneath. My truck has the factory 3:55 gearing and of course the ifs front suspension. Am i in the ballpark with this setup without having any major problems or am i missing something? I've been told the ride will be very good with no steering geometry differences? I'm also aware that i may have to change the gearing to 4:56 to account for the tire size. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
