Lifting a 2WD (Question)
I recently lifted my 2 WD Super crew 2006 F150. I put a 6" Fabtech suspension on it and love it. I would however like to go higher. Ive talked to ppl around here that have said doing a body lift or spacers would be a bad idea due to the suspension. ANybody know anything about this?
thanks,

how is your rear end lifted?
Add-a-leaf or blocks?
For the Rear:

For the Rear:
almost all the lift kit companies sell bigger lift blocks.
but if you already have lift blocks, then I'd suggest a 1.5" AAL.

alot of guys stack a 2.5" leveling kit spacer ontop of the coil-overs. This gives them enough room to clear 37"...and sometimes 38" tires.
But since you are starting out 1" shorter than a 4x4, I'd stick with trying to clear 36...maybe 37" tires.
another option would be to buy new shocks...but those things can get downright expensive and quick. A good set of Kings or Dirt Logics can sometimes cost more than the 6" lift kit itself
