Lift Help

I am looking at trading a lift kit for my stock suspension. I have a 2000 F250 and the truck that Im getting the lift off of is a Early 99. What is the difference between the 2 lift kits? Like, what do I need to get so that I can put the lift on my truck?

Thanks

Trac bar bracket and pitman arm won't switch over. I ran into that problem when switching lifts between my early 99 and a 2002

So all I need to get for now is a pitman arm? I can run without a track bar for now. Im doing a swap in NC and he has a E99. So does he just need a stock pitman arm from a E99 and I need to get one for a 6" lift and then a 6" track bar drop?

Thanks alot, I appreciate the help!

He'll need a stock track bar bracket unless he wants to run without it. Although, I drove 15 miles home with no track bar after I lifted mine and it was a little hairy..... Just a heads up

Ok so all I need is a 6" drop pitman arm and a 6" track bar drop bracket

and he needs a stock pitman arm and track bar bracket.

Works perfect for me and those wont be a problem. Thanks alot for the help, I really appreciate the help. Wheres the best place to get the 6" ones I need? I can get both for about 250 shipped from summit racing and have them the next day?

Ok cool, yea I looked it up there last night and they have it for $170 shipped so Im getting it from them!

Thanks for the help! And for the sway bar links, just move my fronts to the rear for the lift or are the stock rears ok? It has blocks in the rear for the lift but his doesnt have a rear sway bar.
