Exclamation Suspension Lift for a 2WD

Any ideas on a good suspension lift for a 2WD F150 Crew Cab? Nothing too high, maybe 2 to 4 inches at a good price. I've got 35in Goodyear Wrangler All Terrains and some new black 18in Fuel Hostage rims to go on with it, but I need help getting a good lift that'll keep my ride smooth and like I said, at a good price.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated

to fit a 35 you need a 6" lift.

pro comp and fabtech are good lifts. not really a bad option for the 04-08's though.


what are your wheel specs? you need atleast 4.5" backspacing (-12 offset on those 18 fuel hostages) for most lifts.

Fabtech has always been a reliable setup. 114,000 miles and no complaints.

Curious about the options for 2wd for the 09+. I could only find a 6" from BDS but was wondering if their is a 4" that would fit on the 2wd or other 6" lifts.

sorry to hijack

Oh and also, has anyone seen or met anyone with black tips for their exhaust? Wold automotive here in Columbus does them but none of my buddies have them. Wondering if they are a good buy, and if so, do they last long? I just have normal chrome on mine now, but I'm going for a blacked out underbody on my truck. Rims are black, running boards are black, bullbar is black, and I think these tips will help wrap it all up.

I ran a single exit with a black tip for about a month on mine, once a bunch of rocks and other things hit it from flying off the tires it'll knock the black off and it starts to get almost like looking at the stars at night if you get what I'm saying.
