Lift?

IF you guys had a 2006 f150 2wd would you get the fabtech 6 inch with coilovers or the 7 inch cst. I want to get the most possibe lift to fit moto metal 951 20x10 with 4.5 bs and 35 by 12.50 tires without rubbing. Im trying to get away from using a spacer. I want my angles to be ok. Thanks

i would do the coil overs. you can crank them to get 8" of lift from the 6" kit. also, i believe the rcd kit just uses a big spacer like the procomp kit does

Do you have the coilovers? How are your angles? Do you think I could fit those tires and wheels without rubbing?

I don't believe RCD makes a lift for 04-08 4x2's.

I have 20x8.5 with a BS of 5". You might rub a little with BS 4.5" on a 10" wide rim.

Do you have the coilovers? What did you do with the rear 5' block or all?
