Camburg setup

I have a 2004+ F150 2wd crewcab. I want lift but I dont know if I want 6" of it. I was thinking about doing the camburg coilovers with their UCA aswell. The UCA states that you must use rims with now more than 5" of backspacing. Would rims with 5.02" of backspacing work? Also with this setup the 2wd with the coilovers cranked what size tire do yall think I could get under there, Id love for it to be 35" but Im happy with a 33" tire if that all I cant fit. And lastly, what kind of AAL would I need to get in order for my truck to sit level? Thanks in advance for helping me out.

I think you'd need about 4" of lift in the front for 35's and they would still be stuffed. The Camburg UCAs are sweet, but you would still be in trouble with your CV joints and lower ball joint angles. I would go with a 2" level and 33's on the OEM wheels. Rancho Quicklifts are also a great option and you'll love the improvement over the stock shocks.

no, 5.02 is too much. I asked them the same question. Luckily it was before I got my wheels. You have Diamo wheels ? ?

Also, you don't have front CV's and your lower joint should be fine.

I would say 33" tire would be squeezing it in. Not 100% on that one tho. And that would be on OEM wheels. Aftermarket wheels would change the size tire you could run.

you could do front coilovers for 2" of lift and then throw a block in the rear. the UCA's arent really a necessity, but if you want to drop the $$ on them, you can go with TC's UCA's, they will allow for a wheel with 4.5"s of backspacing. you could do 33's on a aftermarket wheel on your 2wd with the coilovers and block in the rear. heres my setup with TC UCA's and DL 2.5" coilovers...
