Lifting Dually
I was looking around at sites for a lift kit for my dually (Just bought an 2001 CC LB 4x4 DRW 6-Speed) I wanted to know if I can use a lift kit from a SRW F-350 or will that not work. Tried the search could not find what I was looking for Thanks.

Only difference is the rear u-bolts used. Dana 80 axle tubes on the DRW are larger diameter and need larger u-bolts.

It depends on the truck and the ammount of lift that you put on a dually to make it look good I have seen some great ones but I have seen some butt ugly ones too. Also you will probably lose some of your maximum load capability.

Load capacity will depend on the method in which the rear is lifted.
You can go to a 8-10" lift and still keep your stock load capacity in the rear if you use One Up Offroad Traction Blocks in the rear.

Pretty sure that's a 4.5" Icon (or 5.5") since it's an 05-07.
