any ideas on 4" lift kit for dually
 
Hey guys I'm look to put a lift kit on the truck and thinking about 4" any ideas. On where to get one for a dually every place I looked say its not for dually Cus the rear springs r wider. Thanks for the help guys

Should not matter with a 4" lift... Just need the correct size blocks for the back.

Edit...

IIRC the springs on a F350 dually are the same as a F350 single...

I think someone is feeding you crap.

rough country makes a good lift kit for the money. fabtech rough country rancho skyjacker procomp all good lifts

fabteck is expensive but if you realy have some cash to spend go kelderman adjustable air ride lift kit

Be careful, I ordered leafs for my 01 f350 and when they arrived they were 1/2" narrower than what was on it. I called the guys in PA and they said yup, 8500+ snow and tow, you need a different spring. Told them up front I had a heavy 350, dually, snow pkg, tow pkg, crew, long box, Still got the wrong springs.

I would do rearched springs with the overload and a leaf removed, and air bags to hold it up. Much better ride than a blocked up truck.

What happens if the bags take a crap?

If I wanted a smooth ride I would buy a caddy...

Factory overloads, add-a-leaf and blocks. No issues, ever.
