Lift recommendation needed for 2001 F150SC 4X4
Hey Now,
Anyone have any lift kit suggestions for a 2001 F150SC 4x4? My truck is completely stock Off Road Package, it came with 17" rims which I am quite satisfied with (I only want some bigger tires on them). I don't want an extreme lift only enough to install some bigger tires which would hopefully not cause me a bunch of problems with excessive wear like I have seen some are experiencing. I was reading some threads and it seems there are 2-3 kits that everyone really likes however I am still a bit confused about whether a suspension or body lift is the best option? Any tips/pics would be most appreciated.Thank ya kindly!

When you say a bigger tire, how big are you talking about? 33's? 35's? You can fit 33's on your truck easily at stock height. A body lift or suspension lift will allow you to easily fit 35's. The biggest advantage of the body lift is it's low cost. Of course you are limited to 3 inches of lift. A suspension lift will give you more lift, but the cost is a lot higher.
