Suspension lift question
[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 23-Sep-01 AT 09:02 PM (EST)[/font][p]I want to put a lift in my F-150. It has the 117" wheelbase. Short S*** little thing. I'm not going any higher than a 6" or any smaller than a 4". Question is, if I were to go with the 6" would I have to lengthen my drive shafts any?? I know I would have to with the 4" but I want the most tire clearance I can get without too much hassle. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Please don't pull out in front of me! The last thing I want to do is play identify the pieces with you or your car.

A six inch kit should run 36's, depending on the width. As far as driveshafts go, never owned a shortbed. That's just my experience. Hope I helped
