So let me get this right, you have some longer upper arms, a 2.5" spring, and 1.5" spacer?

So thats 4" plus the 3.5" Spindle right?

WHat arms? Hows the alignment?

Thanks


correct, the alignment is perfect now, when i put the lift on i was able to adjust the cam bolts and eye ball the alignment and when i took it to the shop they said it was very close. I got the arms from doetsch. you can get them from their website or canuckmotorsports and springtech use their arms aswell. I searched all over and these are the only people still selling upper arms.

What is an a-arm, does it lift your truck, or did you need it to install the spacers? is that the control arm, I'm not exactly sure what the arms do?

I've been wanting tolift my 03 f150 and a suspension lift seems quite expensive, around 1300 i think. How much did all of this cost and how much of a lift did you get? thanks

The a-arms are another name for the upper and lower control arms. the lift kit i have i kinda pieced together: 3.5 fabtech lift spindle, 2.5 lift spring/1.5 spacer, and because i added 4 inches to the coil spring, i needed to purchase an aftermarket control arm that is longer than stock so that the truck will align properly and the tires wont sit crooked.

this kit is a 6.5" front and 3-4" rear. which is what i am running currently

this kit is a 5.5" front and 3-4" rear. The difference between this and the other is this one does not come with upper control arms because it is not required on this amount of lift.

Thanks for the links.

I am currently running the 7" spindle, with a 1.5" alum spacer. My alignment is dead on, but I would like just a bit more lift to fit 37-38's. I think with the arms and springs it would be perfect.
