good lift for low bling bling

Post by broncoman »

i called around and the average lift is gonna cost like 2400-2800$ plus an aditionaly 900$ for installation...I want a good lift but dont wanna half to spend like 3500$...my one friend says just reverse the front shackles which makes his truck higher but it doesn't help his articulation much and also he's actually loosing suspension because his leaf springs are straight...help me please what should i do???

Well, you can get lift in the rear for almost FREE. All you have to do is build new spring hangers. I'm using stock fullsize Bronco springs in the rear with home made hangers. I actually sold off my skyjacker 4" leafs because this was better.

In the front, you can do a solid axle swap, including axle for less than these lift kits go for. I'm all about keeping wheelin affordable. All you need an axle, coils springs, and some radius arm brackets.

I believe that a three inch lift is only 600-700 dollars with shocks. Looks like you are staring at the full race suspension.
