Leveling Kits/Suspension Lifts/Tires/Gearing Information For 04-08
12" Bulletproof suspension for 2wd and 4wd... 2.5 level on 2wd clears 35" tires very easily. I have 9.5" wide wheels and the back of the inner fenderwell is barely cut. Not a single rub. 37's with 6" lift will fit both 2wd and 4wd with minor trimming.. 37's can also be used with oe wheels or 8" wide with minimal backspacing with 2.5" level and 3" body..
i like to cram. haha

Your better off waiting instead of getting that 3inch skyjacker
RBP has done it with their feature in Truckin magazine. It was an 09 but it can be applied to 04-08 as well. Its either on the tech section of truckinweb.com or on RBP's website. And theres a guy that always parks near me at school thats rolling a 2006 F150 Reg Cab with a 6" Fabtech on 37x?x17 Cooper STT with 17x9 Moto Metal 951's. I died a little inside when I saw it because he parked right next to me and I looked like a ford ranger compared too him. ha. I need more lift/tire.
I've done a lot of searching on the site for some info on Rough Country's 4x2 2.5" lift and level kit.
I live in an area where the nearest "expert" on lifts and levels is over 100 miles away and I'm hesitant to spend a good bit of money on a lift and tires without getting as much information as I can. Most of everything I've been able to figure out on my own. I can install everything myself, but just don't have a reliable resource with experience on how everything will line up.
I have a 08 F150 STX 2WD. Talked to the guys at RC about thier lift/level kit and they told me everything would work perfectly for my truck. They also reccomend running a 35x12.50 (or 315x70x17) tire, no trimming or other mods required as long as I used my stock wheels.
I read over a lot of the posts and most of you guys agree that that's tough without trimming. I'm planning on ordering everything at once and can't afford any screw-ups and don't want to cut. So, what do yall think? Could something have changed since 2010? Or am I not getting all the info?
Thanks for any advice. I'priciate it much.

Haha I have this linked in the one in my sig, and the sticky at the top of the suspension forum has both of ours linked in it.
I was looking all over trying to make sense out of a million different sites and threads flipping around with a note book and pen writing down all kinds of opinions, anyhow it was nice to find this, it's just what I needed so thanks for being so forthcoming and thorough !!!
