Body lift

[Cutter26]

I just have to say I like this forum. Most the questions I've had were answerd before I even asked. I am going to go with a 3" body lift, wich I read about in the tech library, and I want to level out the truck. Somewhere I read on here that you can use a 1.5" spacer from a 150 half ton to level out the front. With the 1.5" spacer, will they just go in or am I going to have to change other parts to compensate for the 1.5" lift. And if I go with the leafs out of an Explorer, how much will that raise it from stock.

You'll need to get camber bushings to align the front end after you install the spacers. The spacers are actually only one inch, but they lift the truck about 1.5" due to the design of the axle.

If you go with Explorer rear springs, you will likely get 1.5-2" inches of lift, and it will ride stiffer.
