Thanx

I don't understand. Why lift a 2WD?

I have never seen any type of after market lifting Ibeam for our two wheel drive trucks, but then I have only been looking at ways to lower.

About the only way of lifting the front end of a Twin I-beam truck using bolt-on parts is with a kit that uses rebent I-beams, like these from Autofab:

3-inch lift kit: http://www.autofab.com/65-79.htm
5-inch lift kit: http://www.autofab.com/5lift.htm

I have no need to lift a 2wd, but those kits look pretty cool.

want to put some 33" tires on the crewcab and get just a little more clearance... taking it up some dirt roads etc to camp dont need to lower it

Thanx for the info.

Todd, Hey, how you been man!

I ain't seen you since you sold your F-350 Crewcab, did you buy another one?

I will be picking up a 72' crewcab (the green one in my icon) in a couple weeks so will be posting once again... this time keeping it 2wd just fix it up

alittle simpler. Still have the 95' F350 motor to put in it though. How youve been??

Doin good! I'm still on the hunt for a Crewcab, I must have Crewcabatois or something cuz I'm just obsessed with them!

Will you help ease my addiction with a bunch of pics please?

(using this one for camping)

I saw that truck at cars for causes in santa paula, ca awhile back. I wanted it, just didn't have the money at the time. Good for you!

zakt,

Hard to tell from the picture...
Is this a coil or leaf front suspension.

Got one guy here that's hard core against it but I know several that have done it sucessfully.

If the front is coil sprung, you can lower the spring towers and easily get another 2" of lift from it.
