450 is a good price. i did my own body lift on my 04 and it took my 16 hours to do it myself. it took forever but i had a blast doing it.


how much would get cost to get the tow hitch welded back up like stock?

i trimmed the frame horns when i did my body lift on my 03. I've never seen an 04-08 body lifted F-150 up close, so i don't know for sure how nicely everything lines up. however, if you are patient, you can get it to look really good.

Sorry to bring this thread back... but does anyone have more pics of their 3 inch body lifts? I just want to see if they look ok.. and if the frame shows too much with from the front and back. i would definitely do that tow hitch mod cause i really dont like how they hang down.... thanks.

I think you should do it 950 is a good price i paid $1000 for my install, once you get the gap guards on, they make it look alot better, then do that tow hitch mod and it will look good
