couple of questions about my ford... any help??

I have a 2000 f-150 2WD, it currently doesn`t have anything yet.
im fixing to buy a flow master dual exhaust and wanna get a 3 inch lift on it with some nice all terrains on it.

My question is when its all finished, since its a 2WD would i be able to go offroad on it???

Sure, and get stuck much sooner than a 4x4.
The exhaust won't do anthing more but make more noise.
What else do you want to know?

Sure you can take it offroad, but it'll still have it's limits as a 2wd. If you wanna make it more offroad capable spend your money on a locker especially if it doesn't have a factory limited slip.

Here's some things to make it more offroad capable: locker, decent set of m/t tires, and little bit of ground clearance. After that there's not much you can do, especially if your not experienced in driving offroad you'll get stuck somewhere every time. In 2wd off-roading the driver makes all the difference. And if your asking this question your probably not.

Depends how much shops around you charge to install, but probably close to 7-1k out the door. Oh and I forgot to mention if your planning on running bigger tires gear's are a good thing to think about too.
