Trying to decide how much to lift and who to go with
Hey everyone have some questions about lifting my 02 f150 2wd. used to have 235 70 16 tires on it and i just put 265 75 16's on the other day now im looking to get 3-4" of lift without dropping serious cash as im only 18. rough county has a 3" spindle lift which i hear is good but it only has 2" lift blocks for the back and i would like to lift at least 3" all the way around (not looking to do a level kit).
Now my question is can i run 3" lift spindles with 1" strut spacers and not have weird alignment, and than a 4" lift block in the back or possibly use the 2" blocks in the kit and add a leaf to the back? does anybody make a 3 or 4" lift block for this truck? I haven't been able to find any!

Yup you can run that setup and not screw the alignment up because the only thing changing angles will be the 1" spacer.
As for blocks, try looking for ones that fit a 97-03 4x4. The blocks are the same between the 4x2 and 4x4 and you should have a better selection. Also, a lot of full kits come with a 4" block so you could try going through the manufacturer versus a retailer too.
