f250 lift kit
does anyone have a pic of a f250 2007 body style with a 8 inch lift with 38 inch or bigger tires .... trying to decide how big to go on lift .....

if u tow i wouldnt go with an 8. ive got a 4 on my truck and its hard to hook up to a goose neck with it. ive towed bumper pull trailers with a 6 in kit and its not easy. u have to totally change your mirrors around to be able to see the back of the trailer. also if ur pulling a single axle trailer it will whip the truck around like crazy when your that tall.
also before you do the lift and wheels and tires look into the price of tires on the rims u want. i did the lift and then found out i was gunna be payin 2k+ for a decent set of a/ts on 20s not meaning to turn you off with this but i want to make sure you have the info that you will need before you decide. as for pics check out the websites for some of the lift companies out there. |
Whats a single axle trailer lol? i tow from the bumper with a 10inch lift all the time with no problem. if you tow a goose neck trailer it would have to be modified /"lifted" or not done at all. i dont do any goose neck towing with it however. tires are expensive!! Moral of the story be aware that there are some limitations to driving a lifted truck. build with quality parts and do it right. if your like me your wont care about the bad cause its so much fun driving a lifted truck. CHECK OUT socaltrucks.com for some ideas.

like i said i just wanted you to have the info to make a good decision....i tow all sorts of trailers so i have to be able to pull anything
|
Iv got a 6.5 with 37"s and i can still pull a goose neck but i know with a 8inch you wouldnt be able too but if a boat trailer is all you will be pullin then throw a 8 on. put some pics up when you finish id like to see wat a 8inch with 38's would look like
