Ready Lift

There may be a thread on this subject already, but anyway.

I was thinking, of installing a 2'5" bodylift part#69-2518 on my 2008 f-350.
Any input, from anyone that may have one, installed on there truck. As far ride, handling, ect. Would be appreciated.

The ready-lift company I'm familiar with does suspension leveling kits not body lifts. They were decent inexpensive spacers and torsion keys mostly.

Body lifts have a fair amount of disadvantages, but are the cheapest lift you'll find. Two of my biggest dislikes are the gap left between the body and frame (gap guards hide it pretty well though) and the odd feeling while driving/riding. I think it's from the raising of the center of gravity without changing the suspension to compensate.

What are you goals? A leveling kit will give you 2-3" in the front for a slightly larger tire and cost about the same.

Your right Leveling kit!
I'm not looking to go off road. Just may be looking to but some 35'' on the truck. I do belive, i may have to go with the compleat package, for the front & rear ? I don't think i can get away with just installing the front spacer. truck may sit to high in the front ? ReadyLIFT
