2wd lift concerns
I've got a 3.5" spindle lift with 285/75/16's and no rubbing at all. Its got a good aggressive stance, but not as high as I would like. still love it though with all that extra clearance. check the sig and gallery for pics.

Also, if u just want the 3 inches plus 2 why dont u ditch the idea of a body lift and just get the spindle lift? The spindle lift will be much cheaper plus its all suspension. Look on ebay for Doestch Spindle 3.5 inch lift. I had this lift on my previous truck. I think it was about 200 something for the lift.
Just the more logical decision IMO.

I did the 3.5" spindle and 2" coil spacer with a 3" block in the rear. Worked perfect for me, and was alot less than the 7.5" fabtech. and I was only a inch lower.
Im on a work pc or i would put up a pic, but you can find it in the thread for lifted regular cabs.

I have been looking for a spindle lift also for a 2004 NBS and can't find it. I don't think they make one. And a leveling kit is another way to get a little lift.
I went this route on my 2000 F150 2wd Long Bed -
3 inch spindle kit ( rough country ) ; included the front spindles and rear blocks. A lot of people don't like the RC kits, btu I have to say it's really strong and has not given me a single problem ...
I also got my mind set on 305/70/16's on 16x8's. Ordered them and found that I needed to cut somewhat into the inner fender well and remove some metal. It's all inside and behind the fender, but i was hearing it on tight turns and seeing s a few gauge marks here and there.
I also noticed that on level ground, the front was sitting a little lower,so I got new springs and a set of 1 inch daystar spacers. Springs alone would have made the 305's JUST fit without needing to cut ... The 1 inch was like $30 , so what the heck ...
Too bad, cause I already began eyeing up the 3inch body lift was well ... 6 inches is the highest I can do without having my wife bitch ...
She goes for paint tomorrow ...
