Whats under the hood?

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 2:40 pm

yeah, i know what you mean.. if it's a ford f series, i know a cheap way to lift it lol

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 2:53 pm

86 step side has a300 6. the low rider has the 5.0 302

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 2:55 pm

you can lift the stepside for under 300 bucks.. just need E250 front coil springs and buckets.. and F250 leafs with a 2" block lol

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 3:02 pm

how much lift would that give me?

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 3:04 pm

4 3/4 up front and 4 1/2 in the back, which will get rid of some of the typical ford slump in the front lol

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 3:09 pm

wish i knew that a couple months ago when i wanted to lift it and had someone to go wheelin with. but thats a helpful hint i keep that in mind. E 250 2 wheel or 4 wheel? F250 2 wheel of 4 wheel?

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 3:17 pm

2wd on the E250.. F250 doesn't matter, depending on the number of leafs in the pack.. best bet is stick with 4x4 with less than 6 leafs, otherwise it'll get bouncy in the back lol

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 3:31 pm

my truck has factory blocks like two or three inchers in the back

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 3:31 pm

probably 2".. they have the piece of steel sticking out towards the pumpkin that kinda looks like a shoe horn, right?

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 3:37 pm

yea when i first looked under there i was like wtf? lol

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 3:40 pm

haha yeah.. they're 2".. you could use them and F250 leafs and get 4 1/2

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 3:44 pm

is that what you did to your 93 f 150 how much lift does that have under it

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 3:46 pm

no, my F150 had a 6" skyjacker lift and 3" body lift.. my 85 bronco had E250 coils and 3" blocks.. it was enough to clear a set of 50% tread 38x12.50 TSL's.. the E250 coils alone gave me 3 1/2" of lift

Subject: Re: new from south jersey September 11th 2009, 3:48 pm
