Question lift kits?

hey guys i have an 04 f150 supercab with a 3 inch coil over spacer and 33s but i didnt really get as high as i thought it would be up in front

i dont really want to buy real lift kit because im afraid it would look lame with only having 33 inch tires

ive seen these adjustable coilovers made my icon, king, fabtech, camburg etc.

does anyone know if those would give me a inch or so more of height or would i just be wasting my money?

if anyone has these on their truck picturs would be awesome!

thanks guys, Andrew

don't do anything else unless it is a real 6" lift kit.


with a 2.5" or 3" spacer, you are pretty much at the maximum for the front suspension.


adding another inch is going to kill your ball joints, and negatively affect your wheel travel.



6" + 33" tires isn't ideal...but buy what you can as you can.
