I am buying a 6 inch lift kit soon (please look at my other thread "Battle of the Lifts" for some help) for my 2005 4wd f-150 and was wondering 2 things. This i am pretty sure is a yes to my question but jsut in case, can i add this 3 inch leveling kit on top of my 6 inch lift for a total of 9 inches of lift? If yes to that will the rear of my truck be lower then the front end of my truck?

 

yes your front end will be 3 inches higher than the rear!

will not look good

 

well i know a guy who put a fabtech on and a 2 and a half daystar leveler on it and then a 3 inch body for 11 inches of lift.....and the truck is level....so how could i make it level.....i dont want a body lift.........

 

well tech. it would be 11 inches in the front and 9 inches in the back. The trucks to start out with are unlevel with the front lower than the back. So say you put a 6 inch lift kit on your truck, you would have the six inches in the front and usually like 4 in the back if you wanted it level. If not level you would put 6 in front and 6 in back and you would still have the front lower, and if u added a 2 inch spacer in the front you would just be raising the front to the back. so a leveling kit does not make it 11 inches all the way around. So if your truck is level allready and you put a 3 inch leveling kit ( which is pretty big for a leveling kit) then your front end will be 3 inches higher in the rear.

ok thats really confusing haha hope this helps.

And your friend probably did a full 6 inch all the way around then added the daystay to make it level and then added the body lift. so it is 11 inches in the front but only 9 in the back.

 

Well how do you suppose i can make it 9 inches leveled??? or 8 if that. Cause i know i want taller then 6 inches, i would purchase a 8 inch lift but i can only find two and they both are lik 3000$$$

 

Geez stop crying. Just get a 6in lift and a body lift and you'll be set. Oh another way you could get 8 inches of lift is the 6 inch lift and the spacer in the front and a block in the back.

 

im sorry who said i was crying. I asked a simple question but thats ok be ignorant. But im told with body lfits you cant tow or you shouldnt i dont see why not but ye

 

you can't use your bumper to tow but you can use the reciever

 

correct and the crying statement was uncalledfor

Ok i suggest get a 6 inch lift, and body lift. And when you get the6 inch lift get a 4 inch block in the rear. it will be level with a total 9 inches of lift. Will look GREAT! Yah you just cant tow with the bumper! not a biggy.

hopes this helps!

also you can just get a 7.5 inch lift if you want, and i think skyjacker makes an 8 inch. Just depends on what truck you have and if its a 4x2 or 4x4. Just do some research youll find what you need.

 

Thanks f150lariat, did help. I hate people like him, those are the people who ruin forums by flaming peoples threads and posts. Instead of the 3 inch body lift how bout using that Truxxx 3 inch leveling kit and then adding the boxes in the rear, how would that turn out opposed to the body lift?

 

Im pretty sure that will work
