A pitman arm puller is the way to go get on loan from autozone or take the box down to a shop and the steering box out of the truck and in a vice to do it is best plus huge caution using a torch to heat the arm up you can melt the seal on the worm shaft easily ruining the box and a bunch of pounding and prying is not recommended either great video

Hey thanks man! The front springs do break in so it gets a tad bit lower, but yeah it was a lot higher than I expected to

Looks like it turned out to be more like an 7 or 8 inch lift. Put a 4 inch lift (supposed to be) on my 91 F250, measured before and after and it turned out to be 5.5 inches of lift. Make sure that front brake line isn't stretched too far

Got the same truck and I'm thinking about getting that lift, but I am concerned the truck will feel gutless with 35s... when you put 35s on it, did you re-gear it or is it just fine?

Nice Truck! I just recently got a 1997 f250 4x4 heavy duty truck. I am think of lifting the truck. All I have ever own has been Chevy trucks. I am excited. Thinking of a 6" lift kit. Your 4" seems to sit just about right. Now, what size tires are on your truck or have you put them on your truck already?

That would be great I just need to be close. A measurement from a strait edge between the two spring mounting bolts and the top of the axle it would help a lot.

@UpNorthOutdoors 8 жыл бұрын

I honestly think the 4" looks great and now that I made my new bumper I could easily fit 38" tires. But a 6" lift would be sick too!! The only reason I didn't do a 6" is that I would be getting pulled over alot here in mn for being to high

@frostbite1991 8 жыл бұрын

I'm in N Idaho. Just saw a newer power stroke lifted about 10" with 46's at the grocery store. Cops dont care here lol. I used to have a 92 f250 with a 351W crate motor lifted 6" with 35's. Rode like shit, and I bet it was a rough country lift, but it had a D60 up front and a sterling 55 full floater in the back. It was a beast but I could literally watch the fuel gauge sink at wot. I might look into a sas if I do decide to lift it big.
