Is this 3" lift Good

3 Inch Lift Kits - 2005 F150 FX4

KEY FEATURES • Platinum Series Coil Over
• Rear Leaf Springs • Massive 2” Piston Bore
• Huge 22mm Piston Shaft
• Off-Road Race Inspired Wafer Valving
• Heavy-Gauged 3.175mm Steel Body Wall

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
• No grinding or cutting of the front differential housing is necessary.
• Includes New Softrideฎ Coil Springs.
• Provides Increased Wheel Travel.

This surprisingly simple yet completely durable suspension package, allows the rack-and-pinion steering and front & rear sway bars to be left in the stock positions for precise steering response. There is also no need to modify or replace the drive shafts... plus it makes way for larger 285-75Rs tires.

Shock Options:
Hydro Shocks: Hydraulic fluid contents, recommended for mild to moderate off-road use.
Nitro Shocks: Nitrogen filled, recommended for moderate to extreme off-road use.

i ve read people had problems with that kit. put to much stress on the front suspension.
i would just get a 2.5in or 2 in leveling kit
cheaper
yields same lift height
easy to install

I agree. 3 inches is just too much lift without dropdown brackets.
