99 F-250 powerstroke suspension
 
I have a 99 F-250 xtra cab powerstroke 4x4 and just installed LT 305-55-20's. The front of the vehile sags a bit. Is there a way to just raise the front of her without doing an entire lift kit. I dont want to kill the ride of the truck. Was told to install a fabtec 5.5 lift kit but dont really want to lift her that much. Any ideas?

Get a hold of buck183. He cann tell you what you need, then you can pick it up locally.

The leveling kit is what I'm doing to my 2003 this winter.

Do you have any pics?

I did the jackit leveling kit on my 01 350. It looks great but rides like ****.

Mine has the blocks removed over the rear axle. This lowered the rear so it sits level :cool:. Also has 20" wheels and 305/50-20 tires.

i was told to find a spring shop and re arch the front spring and add a leaf or to get the drop down bracket for the front. drops the front spring mounts approx 2-2.5 inches...hmmmmm.

You posted 305/55-20 , mine are 305/50-20. That would make your diameter just slightly larger...and mine JUST clear :cool:
