body lift
hey
I have a 99 F-150 4x4 and I want to put a 3inch body lift on it. I was wondering if anyone could tell me just how hard it is to put on. Also if anyone had some instuctions that they could e-mail me that would be great. Oh and on more thing. What size tires do you think would look good on a regular cab stepside with a 3in body lift? Thank you.

Hard is a relative word. I only found it time consuming. Like 14-16 hours. The kit comes with the steering extension. I didn't Have to modify much else cause The 5 Speed Shifter just sits a little lower now. If you have a 4x4 you can run 35's with a 3" body lift. So I'd get those. Also Air tools will help severly with the body lift.
