I have called everywhere and all they make for my 1994 Ford
F-350 is a 6" lift. Skyjacker is sopposed to come out with a 7-8" lift, but not until June. My truck has a Dana 60 straight axle in the front, so it isnt really too much different from the '73-'87 GM trucks and they sell a 12". Anyways what im really asking, is there anyway i could make a lift or piece on together with front springs and what not, i dont know? somebody help me out. Im looking to have around 10" of suspension lift.

thanks

ORU sells a shackle reversal kit that lifts the front ~2 1/2". http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=27589

Pretty spendy (suprise suprise), but if you're to cheap to buy it you could always make one.

don't forget your driveline will need attention- a c/v out back mos likely and maybe a long travel shaft up front if you go reverse shackle and soft spring for a nice ride-Jes

Ok you want more. Why? Just a question. I have the 6" on mine and the 38.5 and 39.5 fit nicely. 39.5 will rub if you turn all the way and try to stuff it. Just go with the 6" and put cut outs on if you realy want 44s.

i personally like the use of boggers and TSL's on the same truck. also if you think that yallow truck looks rediculous, there is an orange ford in the back round that is even taller with what seems to be the same size tires

I have a 2" lift (add-a-leaves) on my '88 F350 and run 38.7s (325/85R16 XMLs). They do rub a bit, more work with the Sawzall is needed. But not much. I've thought about a 4 or 6" lift kit.

i still haven't figured out those funky disco rigs from sema, whats up with those? i can't decide if they are engineered safely either, was it a crazy guy with a bender, or somebody carefully creating a cradle to hold everything.

maximum altitude here in texas builds lots of trucks on 44s, give them a call. or call the crazy builders of those sema crack trucks.

those would scare the hell out of me if i saw one in my rear view mirror on the highway. i can see why people want lifted trucks off the road.

maximum altitude is located in san antonio. they do have some bad ass trucks on 44's. one of there trucks was a black new model f350 and it was very clean.
