Hey,

I have a 99 f150 4x4 off road and i would like to put a 4" suspension lift on it. I dont know what type to get or waht you have to change on it. If i could get sum ideas adn a price range and if everyting kums in the box and all ihave to do is install it. I would really appreciate it

Thanx
dave

 

well if you really want a 4" id go with Rancho.

but there are much better choices.
1. Fabtech 6"
2. RCD 5.5"
3. BDS 6"

And most kits come with everything needed. just make sure they include shocks

price ranges from 1200-2300 depending what you get

With a 4" Suspension Lift and 35's your truck will sit about 2" shorter than mine.

 

What truck is urs?? how do i c it??

My truck is in my profile take a look.
I dont have to have a differnet driveshaft or anything like tht do i??

 

Ill post up a picture.

And ive never heard anyone having problems with the drive shafts on the 97-03 lift kits

 

here's a pic. if you want another then let me know.

 

So u have the 4" rancho with a 2" body? Lift??

 

no i have a 3" Body Lift with 36's. But i also got 2" from cranking my torsion bar adjustment keys.

i dont mean to affend you but ill never buy another Rancho lift. I broke one on my Ranger twice.

 

what kind should i get then i jsut want a 4" lift lol

 

i put a 4" rancho on my truck about a month ago. i have no problems with it and i installed it in my driveway on jackstands.

no driveline problems to date. just follow the instructions and everything is pretty self explanatory.

 

if you only want a 4" the rancho is really your only option.

The prices are pretty close to the same for the 4" and 6".

 

go w/ the 6'', there really isn't much of a price difference, and the quality/durability is better, imo. from what i have read, the rancho 4" is not a true 4'', and the last bit is gained by cranking the torsion bars up. just go w/ a 6'' fabtech/BDS/5.5''RCD, and don't touch the torsion bars. you will be happy w/ this way. i have personally seen the durability of the fabtech when beat on, and it will hold up to quite a bit of off-road abuse.

 

I agree. The Fabtech and RCD are great lifts.

 

Can u put on here so i can c the rancho lift.

Well I am thinkin bout the 5.5 RCD lift. if someone could give me an idea of where to look i would like some prices if possible.

I have to spend this money quick lol

 

Hey just curious why you guys are calling the RCD kit a 5.5" lift when it's listed as being 5? Wasn't sure if I was missing something here. You guys get me all excited too, not too much longer and I will be able to order my lift kit....I have been waiting forever!

 

6" fabtech is a good choice. Kit comes with everything and isnt difficult to install yourself. Lots of members seem to really like them and give then good reviews. I installed mine and its been smooth sailing, no issues at all
