ok i have a 97 f150 2wd with 3 inch lift coils, 3.5 lift spindles, and 3 inch body lift. i have installed new upper controls too. im running 35's on it now. but im wondering if i could add a 2 or 3 inch coil spacer to what i have now.im trying to lift it up high enough so that i could run 38's. any help??

 

No dont think so. Longer upper control arms might make it alignable how it is but it doesnt put anymore room between the coil bucket on the frame and the lower arm. Really all i think it would do is compress your 3 inch coils and make your ride even worse. If you could even bolt it back together!

 

then what about a 1 inch coil spacer? its all aligned now as it is. tires dont lean at all.

 

ill try to post a pic of it on here

 

That would be a pretty insane setup. That thing would ride stiff as a board and like alex said I don't think you could bolt it back together. If you wanna go bigger your gonna need a new drop down crossmember. I'd like to see those pictures because I have no idea how you got that thing aligned because I'm running a 2" spacer and my camber/caster is almost maxed out.

 

3 inch coil lift 3 inch spindle lift 3 inch body lift 20 inch rims 35 inch baja claws

 

so what could i do? besides crossmember lift

 

I'm not really sure what else you can do with what you have. They use to make 6" spindles but I don't think they make them anymore. Your alignment has to be maxed out so you can't go with bigger springs. I think you need to look into a Fabtech lift kit or others. Theres one on ebay right now for 650 and its almost new. Someone else might know something I don't but I'm pretty sure your gonna need a new crossmember to go bigger. Something that lowers the lower control arms to gain more lift. Your truck looks great though, I really like the rims.

 

Your only option would be to have custom lift spindles made or order a kit with a drop down sub-frame

 

The link to that kit is using a picture off of BAF150s profile

 

when i had the spindles put on i had new upper control arms with lower ball joints put on. i took to a place called columbus springs and they installed a camber kit to get it aligned. im goin to attempt a 1 inch spring spacer.ive already ordered a drop pitman arm jus waiting for it to get in

 

ok custom spindles? where could i get them?

 

Your gonna spend more on custom spindles than you would on a lift kit and it wouldn't be as safe. A big *** spindle just seems dangerous to me. B2, you think that kit is a scam? Before I purchased mine I was talking to him for awhile and we almost came to a deal, he seemed legit.

 

ive seen it. i think it is legit too. but im going to attempt the 1 inch spring spacer. ill have to add 2 inchs to the back because it sits 1 lower in the back now. and tomorrow hopefully get my 38's put on.

 

Post some pics when you get them on, I think your gonna rub the fenders pretty good though.
