2wd 4"

I have a 4" spacer on the front going on, and the angle are not that bad but I wonder if I just got the front end parts to the 6" lit will it still be alright like the lower cross member to drop the lower on down.
from all the kits I see they only use a 2.5"/3" rear block for the 2wd lift kits....well I only have that in. So I might as well just get the drop cross member and the maybe the new new spindles, leave on my 2wd shocks and 4" spacer that looks like all I will need. and my ride will be the same as a leveled fx4 wiht stock geometry

or if I just put in a 3" spindle it would life the upper control arm back up to stock geometry problem solved. I will go ahead and replace ball bearings while it's apart with moog
does anyone know how taller one of the 6" suspension kit spindles are than a stock one. they aren't 6" taller are they I though that cam from the spindle and the new shock.

if they did make a 4" lift, i would bet money it would cost more than a 6 incher.
by the sounds of it, you have no idea what a suspension lift consists of....the subframe lowers the a-arm mounting points. there is a spacer that lowers the rack and pinion to less the strain on the tie rod ends , then longer knuckles address the angles for the upper control arm, either a spacer is used on top of the shock assembly or a longer bodied shock is used to make up the 6" difference from stock. basically that is all the front lift consists on a 2wd drive truck...you just can't pick a part and use it, it all is designed to work together, if you did try, it would just bind up anyways.
good luck cobbling together your truck together.....

apparently I can not convey what I am trying to accomplish over the internet to you people and have everyone on the same page so I will do what I have always done and just do it
