PA body lift on 94 f150?

I saw that there is a sale on performance accessories body lifts this winter. I was thinking of buying the 2" lift for my truck (about 100 bucks). Right now i have 33-12.50s on it and i only have taller front springs. After the springs broke in, the tires started rubbing on my mud flaps and i dont like that so Id like a little more clearance. I'm looking for any information i can get about them, installation, reliability, other parts needed, and anything else you can think of. My uncle and i could probably install it unless i hear from you guys that it would be too hard. Thanks in advance for any help. Tyler

i put a PA 3" bodylift on my 89. its a great kit, and very easy to install. no complaints here at all. only thing, mine didint come with bumper relocation brackets, so i got some from a local 4x4 shop. it took me and a buddy of mine the better part of an afternoon to put mine in.

mine is a PA 3", I have tortured it and no problems. Mine came incompleate, missing some bolts. It didn't have lifts for the 4wd lever, manuel shifter, or bumper brackets. I put mine in (basic kit minus stuff I fabricated) in about 2 hrs. The only other thing is that it did bad things to my parking brake, I have yet to relocate it, nothing hard just haven't found the right time.

Thats a nice looking truck Donate. Those arent 35s are they? If they arent, a 3" lift must not add what i thought because my truck has almost the same fender clearance as you with only the front end lifted. I looked at the reviews section and it must have been a misprint because it said 14 hours of installation? I like the sound of 2 hours better. Anyway, thanks for the info, ill try and keep you posted on what happens.

no thyere not 35's, theyre 33's. you probably have more clearance than me if you have a 4x4, because my truck is only a 4x2. btw, its definitely NOT a 14 hour installation, i think it took us about 4 or 5 hours, and that was taking our time since we had never installed one before.

Does anybody know where i can get the instructions on here? My uncle would like to know what hes getting into before hell say that he will help me. I dont know wether it matters but its a 94 regular cab long box f150 4x4 with a 302 auto. If somebody would scan the instructions and email them to me at tmw3386@aol.com, thatd be great. Or if you know of a site that has them, let me know. I was able to find instructions for like an older nissan on line but i figured they might be a bit different. Thanks for anything that helps.
