2-3 inch front lift questions

[craveman85]

i have a rear block 2 inch kit for my truck and want to lift the front 2-3 inches. i was wondering if anyone has any suggestions besides buying a whole kit. i tried twits in spring boosters but one shattered and i found out they looked like swiss cheese on the inside. worst casting i have ever seen. also would i have to buy different camber adjusters or could i just keep my old ones. its a 95 xlt reg cab 2wd short box if that helps any. got to git it a few inches higher for some 31's

Daystar leveling kit or washers welded together from what I gather. I am thinking about lifting my truck a little bit as well. You can also get lift coils which should give you enough lift for 31's. This information is from a few months of research I did here on this website.

washers welded together?

yea made as spacers, check out the tech library man. it shows good ways to level your truck and good pics of the washers welded and how to use spacers

washers welded together?

From what I read, you really don't have to weld them together, but it is a good idea. You would also have to paint them too if you don't want them to start rusting as soon as you put them in your truck.

Go to the junkyard and find some F150 springs from 80-96. It will throw off your camber and you will have to fix it.

am i looking for super cab, v6, v8 4x4, 2wd? they probably all used different springs. how much lift did you get total?

no matter how you lift it plan on getting it aligned and having them adjust your camber with new bushings.

I got a little over 2" of lift. I got mine off an 89 f150 regular cab v8 2x. springs and shocks for 48.00 with guarantee.

The ones one the outside are the F150 springs compared to ranger in the middle.

did you need new camber adjusters or did you use your old ones.
