1967 f-250 lift kit No blocks

Post by mljjones67 »

I am in search for a high quality lift kit for my 67 I want to replace the springs completely rather than put blocks under them. Anybody know of a good lift kit?

He wants to put in heavier arched springs instead of blocks to lift his rig.

Superlift might build a lift that doesn't use blocks. You can also go to a spring shop and see what they will do to build ya a set.

Front springs on the highboys and lowboys are 3in wide. Highboy rear springs are 2.25 wide and lowboys are 3in. Also the lowboy has a different lenth rear spring. higboys are 67-77.5 and 77.5-79 are lowboys. Skyjacker carries a front and rear kit for your highboy for leafs all the way around, just a little more cash then with an add-a-leaf or a block. 76 springs will be the same as what you have now unless their lift springs.

I looked into changing my rear hangers for the ones off a lowboy and moving the front rear hanger forward also to have 3in springs all the way around but the lenth from the center of the axle to the rear of the frame are not the same on highboy-lowboys, so just a hanger change will not work unless you reverse the spring. Remember one side of the spring is longer than the other from the spring center pin.

Here is a link for the skyjacker kit. http://www.ntwonline.com/acb/showdetl.c ... 6&CATID=12

When ordering you have to make sure you tell them you want all 4 springs.
