Hi, I have a pretty much stock 69 F100 long box, 4wd. 360(for now) 4 speed. it sits at stock height, but I want to install a 4" lift and 33 or 35" wheels in the future. I'm banging my head against the wall researching lift kits! not much choice out there for my application. 2 1/4 rear leafs dont' help.
I don't want to be buying part after part to get this installed. Can you recommend a setup that will work without a lot of dicking around?
Do I need the Radius arm drop brackets??
which is better ? blocks or Add A Leaf? I'm not competing wiht this truck. no crazy off roading.
will the F100 Heavy Duty front coils achieve the lift I want or are the lift kit coils bigger ( more heavy duty) still?
thanks
Mark

Superlift makes a 4" kit (K498) that is front springs with relocation brackets for the radius arm mounts and rear blocks with new shocks all the way around. So if your not wanting to buy pieces and part from multiple manufactures then I would get this. Personally I never liked adding blocks to the factory set up due to axle wrap so I would do the two this. Buy the Superlift kit and scrap the block and replace it with the 4" add a leaf from Skyjacker (R225). My
