Ok i recently found a auction on ebay for a Rough Country lift for my truck and an tempted to buy it. (Front leaf springs, polyurethane bushings, pitman arm, I-beam drop brackets (80-98 F-250 Only), track bar drop bracket (82-98 F-350 Only), 4 RC Hydro 8000 series shocks, u-bolts, and 3" rear blocks.) Is all that it comes with. Does this seem like a good price for $600 plus shipping? Also how do lifted TTB front ends ride? How high can I go before i have to get extended brake lines. It is a 4" lift

 

The problem with the TTB front ends is getting them aligned after they have been lifted. You will probably have to extend the brake lines. I'm not sure what ford TTB lift kits cost but shipping is probably going to be alot.

 

is the lift used?you could get by without new brake lines,but i wouldnt you can get both front and the rear for about 120 or so,just look around,to get by for now you will have to bend them.only problem with that lift stock brake lines are only gonna have limited travel even bent.i would get the lines and do it all at once

 

My 4'' lift didnt need extended brake lines and i cant keep my truck alingend because of the TTB suspension

 

The lift is new, but i also found a straight axel off of a 1997 F-350 stroker for $600 everything included but the rims and tires, steering parts too. Thinking about getting that instead. Any input on that? How hard is the swap? Just eye balling it doesn't look too bad.

 

im looking to do the same axel swap. It's a straight change over and it'll give you about a 3" lift just from the stiffer leafs, add a leaf in the rear for leveling. $600 sounds pretty good but does it have the springs?

 

I had a 6" Rough Country put on my '96. A pic of it is in my profile. Lift, tires, wheels, dual steering stabalizers, install, and alignment for $1200. Mine rode like a tank, but I had a home-made front winch bumper (1000 Lbs.) on it too. I'd recommend RC Lifts, next one I purchase will be from them.
