Suspension Tools

Looking to lift my F250 4". Just wondering what tools i will need. I have 2 3 ton jacks and 4 3 ton jack stands, pitman arm puller, and typical tools (rachets, sockets, open end wrenches...), I would also like to know what size sockets i will need to use.

Thanks,

Why do you want to ruin a perfect truck with a lift? All you would be doing as opening a giant can of worms for yourself. The TTB front end and lifts don't mix well. If you have to lift it go to a Dana 60 in the front. Then the cans of worms is a bit smaller. Just some friendly advice.

Ya I would rather do a Dana 60 swap... but I am strapped on cash, and i need to replace my suspension anyway, and my buddy is selling me his used skyjacker lift for a good price. What exactly will i be getting into? I know the camber will be all screwed up.
