Suspension Lift

Hey guys/girls,

I am still working on restoring my '65 F-250 4x4 and would love to lift it up a little bit. 4" the most. At least enough to easily fit 35"s under it. (althought some people say I already can) it would just look better. I have been unsuccessful in my efforts to find a suspension lift for my truck over the past two years. I have found a few from "jackit.com" and some other place which is the same kit, but it was for a 1966 F-250 4x4. I was under the impression that these years had the same suspension but I guess not. So with that in mind...would those kits work...if not what would be a good source for a lift? Thank ya much!

Why not get some custom springs made up? National does trick one-offs all the time. The only pinch would be if you would need a dropped pitman arm or not. I would talk to the guys at your local spring shop and see if they can take care of you. Good luck!

Try some one like Fabtech. They get their name because the give you what you need and you fab the rest in place. These are great lifts, especially if done correctly. Look in a few 4x4 mags to get theiir website.
