well lets see if you want half sizes then talk to fabtexh but dont use there articles they are always out of date call them and see what they have i personally dont like fabtech at all, im a skyjacker man and i know they make a lift for you because i get a pamphlet from them every 3 months on all the new ford parts but call them and see, but here is your best bet i order all my stuff from these guys and they are very good people call rocky mountain suspension and ask your questions they, supply just about every suspension, body, space etc. etc. product you could think of, there number is toll free 1800 521 4908 they are very good and they will help you find it. hope this helps a little

do you think i can run 38s with one of these lifts? stock you can shove a 35 under with just a little rubbing, so i think with a 5.5 inch lift i could run 38s no problem.

hey donahoe, nice website.

I have never heard for your suspension products before but perhaps if given a discount my man soon2be here might be very interested in lifting his truck using your products and putting a sticker on and plugging your site in his posts to other superduty owners. Just a thought.

yall got some nice lookin trucks on that site.
