2wd body lift ?'s
I was looking at a 3" kit from the Bronco graveyard for my truck, it says it will not fit 2wd models with the box close to the firewall. Is this due to steering column angle or what? If so I assume you can fix it with just a custom column or some fab work.

How much do you intend to lift the truck?
Yes, it is true that the column to box interface is the problem when considering boady lifts for 2wd's. Since the column is directly mounted to the box via a coupler, and does not have an intermediate shaft like a 4wd does, making the connection os not eay to do. This will require some sort of slip coupling, and the limited space will make this quite a chore. 2wd's are pretty simple to lift, and can be done without too much trouble, for not a bunch of money. Since there are no driveshaft issues, the twin I beam suspension can accomodate som decent lift without repercusions. Probably less work to lift the vehicle correctly, than try to get creative with these steering components. |

The Width of the springs will make it a little harder, being 2.5" vs. the 3" for the 4wd & F-250/F-350's of similar models.
