mine doesnt ride too bad, definetely not as soft as when I first bought the truck, I need new shocks and struts though

 

Why not add a block that way you still have your factory ride. Or do you not want a block? AS sells them up to 3" I belive.

 

A lift block would work too, I guess. I'm a complete newbie when it comes to suspension lift. I thought maybe the aal would be easiest, but maybe a block would be the way to go. I guess it just depends how high to go. Will definately check into it. Like I said, this is just for looks, not load capacity for me. Thanks.

Questions after thinking about this, if I went with a 3 inch block, would I need new shocks, and what would this do to the driveshaft angle? What size is the factory block?

This would do the trick, but I would still be higher in back than the front. It doesn't say I would need different shocks.

 

block is much easier to install than an AAL

 

the pro comps are about $100

 

I have a 1998 F150 4x4 off road with the 1.5 inch blocks stock. I though about an aal on top of the stock blocks but maybe i shoud go with the 2 inch block under the stock blocks and a level kit in the front. Will i need new shocks?

 

Your factory block is 2". You could add a 3" block on top of that one, and yes you would need some longer shocks. I doubt honestly that you will get a whole 3" in the front out of torsion bars though. I can see you getting maybe an inch and a half or so but 3.. I doubt. You could get by possible running a 2" block on top of your stock block but your shocks travel is going to be affected alot.. less travel=stiffer ride.

 

Safely you can get 2 and then any more can cause problems thats why i want to do it the right way and level it. Then add 2 more inches in the back.
