Can you lift a 4x2?

I'm just curious. I don't need any kind of lift kit on my truck but I was wondering if it was possible. Do they even make 4x2 lift kits?

Lol yes they do. I just bought my lift for my 2wd (should be about 12.5") and am putting 38's on it in a matter of weeks.

Your is possessive, (ex: That is your truck)

You're is a contraction, short for you are. (ex: I can tell you're a truck noob.)



We've all had our share of "dumb" or "noob" questions, no point in attacking a fellow member for asking theirs - I knew very little (and still do!) about the F150 and personally find these forums to be an invaluable resource.

Yes they make lifts for 2WD trucks, Fabtech is probably the best. Mine's a lifted 2WD.

It may just be for the 2003< trucks BUT...I would go for a spindle replacement lift. I love mine, and have 0 problems with it. I only got 3.5 inches of lift...but I feel that is all I needed in order to give my truck a more aggressive truckish' stance. I put 35" tires on mine...and trust me you will feel the weight of them while you drive...AND it will hurt your gas milage. Just something to think about If you do go for a lift and get larger than stock tires...I would strongly suggest regearing your diff. as this will make up for the lost power of the taller tires and such. Just my $.02

You can lift or level them, they have a lot of great looking 4x2's on this site!

Yeah man you can, look on teh site and you will find plenty of lifted 2wd trucks. I like to call them a prerunner in tehk desert racing style. I am working on getting mine leveled, but thats because i cant afford a lift kit while in college.

N00b

Yes, I am a n00b. I bought my first truck less than two weeks ago. Before that I drove a Chevy Metro (formerly Geo Metro). I appreciate the patience you guys have with me as I've got a lot of questions. Thanks for all the advice - John

PS - In common Leetspeak, the word "n00b" usually has the 'o's replaced with zeroes but since 1337 is completely freestyle, you can spell it any way you want. It's just that using the zeroes will make you look less like a n00b. Pwnd.
