1.5 " block suspension lift...

[taylorking]

this guy on the fire department with me has a 96 F350 4x4 and i noticed his truck sat up higher than mine.

he told me he had blocks in it so i took a look and there was a 1.5" block under the bottom of the leaf springs.

i wanna do this to mine but my dad's real strict on what i can do to my truck lol

will i hurt anything doing this?

well there is a big difference between an f-250 and F-350 he has a solid axle you have IFS so if you do it you will need to realign your truck which could be hard to do his is fine but I don't recomend sticking blocks in the front. If your talking about the rear then go for it.

wouldnt it look goofy with only blocks in the rear?

if so whats the cheapest way to get a inch or 2 of lift?

I for got who but there is a 2" leveling kit for our trucks but not sure you probably need to also buy Camber Caster bushings to make up the difference. I have a leveling kit and barely got by with my 1.75 degree bushings

i got my leveling kit off of ebay for like 80 bucks.
it was from rough country and it was just a add a leaf kit for the front and it made a huge diff.
but im def. pleased!!!

I still have my ole 96 and I lifted it with IFS and hated it I would never recommend it to anyone. I bought a dana 60 for it and it was awesome.

definitely do not do blocks on the front that is not good at all especially with a diesel. There is just a leveling kit that is made I got a 2.5" lift for mine that came with new brackets for the front with camber adjustment bots and add aleafs for front and back. Like said above though it is a real pain to lift this TTB suspension. doing a leveling or small lift like this though wont hurt anything just get your front end re alligned after doing it
