6inch 37's????

Hey I just bought a 2005 F150 King Ranch and was thinking about getting a 6inch lift and hopefully running 37's.
Any suggestions?

If you are starting out wanting 37's, I'd suggest the 8 inch Rize lift.

It will be crammed and trimmed with only 6" of lift on most kits. Most who have added 6" and 37's end up running coilovers or a leveling kit in addition to get 8" of lift. I would also say that most who go larger end up wanting to go even bigger eventually.

I agree with Wandell, the 8" rize is a solid lift for your truck.

Imo just get a 8" rize with some 38's, later on if you want to add a couple more inches you could always get the bilsteins or a leveling it and it would still look good with 38's. If that makes any sence.

i agree start out with the 8inch rize and some 38s that will look good.... Now if you go with a 6inch then you will prob wnt a leveling kit to run 37s...... Also running 37s+ your gonna need to re gear as well front and rear

I wish I went with the rize... A 6 inch lift will require coilovers or a spacer to run 37s.

dude you can run 37's with a 6 inch and it will look great. Truckin' magazine just did a 6" and 37" combo on a 2009 2wd f150. i go for the crammed look everytime i lift too. im running a 2.5 coil spacer and 35's right now... 37's can definitely be done with 6 inches. but if you want to be really big an 8" rize and ATLEAST 38's will be a good crammed look. but we all know that rize is not exactly cheap. a good 6" can run you less than half of what a rize will. so its all in what you want. big or really big
