Hi im planing on taking off the front coil springs to put 2 inch spacers. Is it hard to take them off and what do u remove?I have a 2wd f150

 

you need to buy spring compressors if you dont already have them and then jack up your truck enough so the coil is loose from its pocket. Then unbolt the shock and then you can pull out the coil. Autozone and kragen I believe will let you buy the tool then you can return it when your done and get your money back.

 

Is your leveling kit an above strut assembly spacer, or a poly-type coil spacer?

 

Can't you crank the torsion bars on a '97?

 

if hes asking about a coil, then his truck is most likely a 4x2 unless there something i dont know about. torsion bars are on 4x4's which dont have coils

 

The new body style 04-07 150's have coilover front suspensions whether a 4x4 or 4x2. Same type of leveling kit will work on either. Torsion bars are a thing of the past.

 

My Bad! Thought he had an 05, stupid me.

 

i have a 2wd but im not sure what to do i dont know if it will be better to get new coil springs that give it a 2inch lift in the front or jst get the coil spring spacers. wat should i do?

 

I guess it's a matter of cost, new springs are going to set you back more than if you went with the spacer, but if your springs are worn, you may be better off with new lift springs.

 

if i buy the spacers will there be anything else i have to buy with it except the spring compressor.

 

I don't know much about your year model, but don't buy a spring compressor, rent one from your auto parts store. The only other thing you should have to do is get an allignment done after the install.

 

I think I have the same leveling kit as you do, Was your black anodized aluminum? If so, do you notice any difference in the ride quality? Anything I should know before i put mine on? Oh yeah, i actually tried putting it on today, it took me like 7 hours just to realize that I didnt have a big enough rachet size, by then the stores were closed, grrrrr It was a nice day out to be laying on the gravel for as copuplew hours though.
