Exclamation Body lift + leveling kit????

I have a 2004 F150 XLT Super Crew. Is it possible to do the 2" leveling plus a 3" Body Lift on my truck?

If it is possible to do both...will 35's fit fine?

If I can only do one I would pick the 3" body lift.....will 35's fit fine?

I have a limited budget so a suspension lift is outta the picture that is why I am going towards the body lift.

Yes, you can do a leveling kit and a body lift. Yes, 35's will fit with that combonation easily, depending on what wheel you use.

Wandell........

Do you just have the 3" on yours....and no leveling kit?

Do you have any bigger pictures so that I can see if the 3" would be good enough?

I agree - save your money, buy what you want all at one time. Took me almost 8 months to save, but I went with suspension lift. You wont regret it.

My truck is an 01, which is completely different than yours. If you want to see some pics though, I have a gallary here. Just go to the gallaries and do a search for "wandell".

Beaver, What setup do you have as far as Lift?

I have the same color 5.4 Lt, XLT Standard cab short bed. I REALLY like the lifted look on that color. Our color.

I'm liking that. Any major problems? How's the ride? Any sound problems....clunking etc.? How hard was it to do both? Would you go with that again or do a suspension lift?
