ebay lift

I've seen a 7" lift kit for 99-03 f150s on ebay for 500 dollars from some company out of Lake Havasu. I won't post the link cause I guess it's a no no.
Has anybody seen these and what are their thoughts on them?
Thanks

Ebay Lift

Im Gonna Buy The 7" Spindles. He Wants 300 For Them. They Seem To Be Cut Like Any Other Spindle, But We'll See Right. Ill Re-post When I Get Them, Shipping Should Take A Couple Weeks He Said. I Like The
7"ers In The Front Cause Rear Lift Is Easy To Acomplish With Blocks And Lift Springs. But That 7 In The Front You Can Add A Lift Coil On Top And Get Some 38-40"s Under There.

well, sorry to inform you, but thats what they are....... bud. did some research found a company on ebay and they make their own spindles. they call them monster. it goes on in the morning. im by no means and expert but ive lifted a few different vehicles that i have had. the kit looks solid to me. it was complete with their front 7" spindles and a fabtech 5" rear block kit for the f150.

does it use a drop cross member or anything or just replacement spindles? seems like your control arms would be at a steep angle?

got it finished today, sorry no pics yet its too dark to get a good shot. ill get'em up tomorrow. went in smooth. the only problem was that the tie rod touched the rim on the drivers side ever so slightly but regaurdless it was a problem. obviously the backspacing was a little much. went to a rim shop and got some spacers 30 minutes later the problem was solved. fit my 35x12.50r18 mud grapplers beautifully. looks high too. its a true 7" inches.
im very happy with the finished project and got a sick deal on it.
