hey.. newbie here to this forum and i jus wanted to know if a 3in lift to a F150 2WD was a way to go or could perhaps a 4 or a 5?

 

3" spacer? no! it puts ur angles to steep and stresses to many things. 2.5" max.

3" body lift? if you do that do a 2.5" leveling kit so your truck sits level.

 

if you plan on doing that id go with a body lift thats 3 inchs not a leveling kit but if your going to get a suspension atleast go with a 6 inch

 

Yeah, what kind of 3 inch lift are you talking about?

 

...ohhhmmm im not sure yet on what specific lift kit, which is why i was asking here and ideas!

 

well if you dont want to spend 2 grand on a 6" suspension lift i would recomend 2 1/2" spacer and 3" body. spacer should be no more than $300 installed. 3" body for a nbs i think runs about 800-1000 bucks installed. if you do just a 2 1/2" spacer you can fit 33's on oem rims or a rim w/ similar specs. if you top it off w/ a body lift you should fit 35's

 

performance accessories is the best body lift brand. i cant remember the most popular brand leveling kit people use someone will chime in and let you know tho. i think its autospring but not too positive.

 

ahhh NICE! thanks for your rapid reply and im seriously considering your recommendation! thanks!

 

autospring is a good leveling kit

 

yeah get a Auto Spring spacer bc its very cheap and easy to install yourself

 

I agree.

 

ive got a 3 inch body lift for sale if you were interested still in box and never used..

 

...ahhh really??? hmmm, how much are ya asking for and will it be compatible with my '06 2WD?

 

to check to see if its compatible go to their website check part numbers or email them and ask. if your near a truck shop you can also call/go up there and ask them. if you decide to do a body lift make sure to get gap guards. makes it look 100 times better.
