How can I get another inch or 2 up front in addtion to a leveling kit?

I've got an '06 reg cab flareside that I just put a 2.5 leveling kit and 35" BFG AT's on it and absolutely love it, but think it would look even better if it was up another inch or two all around. I can easily throw some blocks or add a leafs in the back, but how can I get the front up a little more without stressing anything?

Click on "User CP" which is located towards the top of the thread which should take you to the User Control Panel page. After getting there look again where you first clicked "User CP" and about there inches under that link there is a link titled "Edit Signature" click on it. Which then takes you to a page where you can add a link of a picture you have uploaded online by using f150online, photobucket, myspace, etc, etc, etc.

Good Luck.

add a one inch body lift, barely noticeable from a looks stand point, but will give you that extra height your looking for...
