I have a 98 F-150 I am looking to get about a 3 to 6 inch lift was wondering what the best way to go about it would be would like to do it myself if possible

 

That depends on you 3" or 6" if you only want 3" I would probley do a 3" BL. if 6" than you need to do a S-lift. Some do a 3" B-Lift with AAL and torsion keys up front for about 5" lift but the Keys are a very bad idea. You can do a 3" body lift with the torsion bars cranked up to level the truck out. Or you can do a 5" or a 6" S-Lift. What size tires do you want to run? Also if you want to go to a 35" tire or larger you will want to figure in on regearing the truck. I have a 02 f150 with a 5" RCX lift that with the torsion bar turned up a little and I got 5½" to 6" of lift out of it. I am running 35" and about to regear it to 4.56 gears. It is all up to how much lift you want and what size tires you want. They do make a 4" S-lift. If you run that with some 33 you won’t have to regear. Just look at some pictures and see what you want, or what your wallet can afford. Attached is a pic. Of my truck if it helps

 

Failed to mention whether 4x4 or 4x2. See the link in my sig for more info, it should answer a lot of questions for you.
