I'm looking for the biggest suspension lift I can get my hands on for a 1999 Ford F-150. There's currently a 6" Suspension & 4" Body on it. I wanna do away with the body lift and get a bigger suspension lift... But, I'm having trouble finding one... Any help would be appreciated

 

from what i have heard the full throttle 10" kit is the better of the over 6" lifts but wiplash makes one and so do a few others, good luck

 

full throttle=whiplash

or so I hear

 

whiplash would be the only one i can think of.... like 10- 12 inches

 

I like Full Throttle... I think they're coming out with something bigger than 10" soon. I knew Superlift made a 10".. but, I can't find it anymore. I'd still like something a little bigger. It would be possible for a 10" suspension lift with torsion keys in the front and arch my springs in the rear.. That'd give me 12".. Right?

 

i dont think superlift ever made a 10" for the 97-03 F-150, and i would stay away from reindexed torsion bar keyways they put your front CV shafts at a very bad angle causing premiture wear and falure, why dont you go with a 10" lift and a 3" body, for 13" of lift? i hope you dont plan on doing much hard offroading, with the over 6" lifts and the tire size your front CV shaft are going to be prone to falure, but if you are making a show truck you should be fine, good luck

 

no i just checked two diffrent companys

and i checked the full throttle website and it says they have a 14" kit comming soon

 

Whiplash has a 14" kit now I am pretty sure, call and talk to them.

 

not for the 97-03 f-150 they do for the 04-06

I talked with them about this kit back in Sept of 05, and they wre just getting the finishing touches put on it at that time. It comes with dual shocks in the front standard, and seems to be a pretty nice kit overall.

You will need new driveshafts, and a few other things to make it work though...they quoted me boiut $5000 installed with driveshafts and all....at that time I lived pretty close to them and thought about the kit and having them install it.

 

If you wanna go that big, convert the front to a solid axle. A decently built dana44 will hang on to 40 inch tires with no problem. Cut the IFS out, weld in leaf spring mounts, and shackle mounts, shock mounts bolt it up. You wont have any alignment problems that are inherent with the IFS, and it will be 5 times stronger, for a lot less money. Also, you lift are a lot less limited and a hell of a lot cheaper........just food for thought. I am gonna do mine this winter more than likely....

 

Whiplash does have a new 14" lift out. 10" springs with a 4" block in the rear.. It's about $3,100.00 for the kit w/o the driveshafts. I don't know though.. I think I'd rather sell my truck and get a new one and start over rather than changing my lift out. I'd like an 02-03' ... The newer trucks just haven't grown on me yet. Dont have the money to convert my truck to a solid axle... Just a few more dollars I wouldnt like to spend!.. Thanks!

 

I know this is an older post.. But, I am finally doing it. I'm in the process of getting my 14" suspension lift. I'm having a hard time deciding between tires. I really want a 44" .. but I'm afraid they'll look too small!! BY THE WAY!!!, I AM STILL LOOKING FOR THE TOW PACKAGES MADE FOR 3" Body lifts.... Please help!!

 

here you go. this is where i got mine. if you don't see your truck listed call them.
