What to do

Hey I have a 2001 F150 XLT Sport Flareside w/ the 5.4L V.8. I was wondering what I could do to fit 35 inch tires on 16x10 rims. I do not want a suspension lift..its too expensive and I dont do much offroading. I have heard alot about the 3 inch body lift kit, but I'm not sure that would be enough. What are 3.5 inch Pro Comp lift spindles? Would they help? Any suggestions would be great. Thnx.

If you're gonna buy the spindles, you're gonna end up doing suspension modifications no matter how you slice it. Is your truck a 4x4? Spindles are only for 2wd trucks. You'd have to buy new shackles or lift blocks for the rear to even it out if you do buy the spindles. I know offhand that an F-150 with the 17" wheels will fit 34" in stock trim.

Good luck,

It's 2wd. I actually havent decided what i want to do. Lower it and put 17 or 18 inch rims with dual exhaust or raise it with 35's and dual.
