Probably up at Clayton, a bunch of friends were out there this weekend instead of Barnwell with me.

Find a 4" rancho, use your current leveling kit, your current wheels, + 37's!

I bet with a 1250 wide tire it might squeeze in there.

It depends on where. You shop. I got quoted yesterday for a 4" fabtech lift. Parts were $1,900 and an install was $2,300 which = $4,300. He said that included 16 hours labour and a wheel alignment which is bs. The fabtech site says 8-10 hours for install. Make sure you price out the lift online and read what the company's install times are and then make sure the installers estimated time is not too far off

02 f150

I have an 02 F150 7700 series and am looking at getting around a 6 inch lift with a 3 inch body lift.

would a regular F150 lift work and would I need loner brake lines and steering arm etc...

Maybe too late but talk to Adam at Tribe 4x4.
Right now he is in race prep mode, he does a lot with the ULTRA4 series and is the "go to" guy in TX for race cars and prep.

And did you buy the lift kit first
