LIFTED. On a side note, how hard is it tot put a small 2in lift on a 97 ford F350, how much will it affect towing, and gas mileage?

On your two inch lift, are you going with 2 inches all around? Is the truck 4wd? I would go a little bigger in the front, since they usually sit lower than the rear. I would do three inch blocks on the back, and 2 inch coil springs on the front. This would be very cheap compared to the fabtech, etc. all out lift kits. Install shouldn't be that hard. I was thinking about doing this to my truck. I don't see why it would affect towing, but your fuel economy might decrease a little bit.

It really makes more a difference than most people would think.......when Ihad my stock wheels on my truck (I had little squaty tires on them) and the 2/4 drop......I could load my quad by myself without ramps......but when I put the 20's on and lifted it back up......it really mad a huge difference.........I have to use the ramps now.....and I actually have to hook them on the bed......

Definately lifted for me. Some times a lowered truck looks cool, in my opinion, but when it is scraping the ground, you went too far. But if I ever saw a lowered truck parked in my driveway, it'd be time to get the Bobcats and flip her over. lol No one better take offense to my opinion this time.

LIFTED TRUCKS ALL THE WAY.
