Lift Question?

Ok Gents, I have the 4.5" Icon kift on my 2006 F350 Lariat CC, SWB, PSD. 35x12.5 Pro Comp XAT. The front of the truck is not level with the rear. The front sits 01 inch lower then the front. I'm just looking to level out the truck and mabey just get some added lift without loosing the 4.5" kit, I really like the way it rides.

I was thinking of installing the Icon 1" TEI spacer at the front, does anyone here use them? and how did the instal go?

I was also lookin at puting the 2" RISE front spacer on, and then swap out the rear 5" ICON block with the ICON 6" block. I figured this would level the truck and lift another inch from where it sits now? All opinions and ideas welcomed Thanks

both methods would work, but consiering your current lift system is deisgned around a 4" lift, stepping up to 6"s via spring hats, would result in screwing alot of other parts up..

you would need a new pitman arm/brake hoses (unless currently already replaced with longer ones) trackbar brakcet/replacement arm/ shocks just to name a few...

i would just use the 1" spacer and call it a day..

I was thinking that way too. Would like to get some input from anyone who has used the TEI spacer.
