06 F350 Lift Question

[lramos]

I have a 06 F350 CCSB. Went with a RC 4.5" lift, 20x12 and 35x1250x20's.
I would like to add a 1.5" leveling kit to make it a 6". Then go up in size of the tire. Like a 37x13.50x20. If I add a 1.5" leveling kit will I have to do any other additions to the front. Like extend brake lines, trac bar and etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks In Advance!

I kicked this idea around too, I'll see if I can dig up my thread and find the responses i got. Give me a few.

To do it the right way, and keep your truck steering and driving the same, you need more than just the spacer. Sure it would work to just throw a spacer on there but it's far from ideal. Off the top of my head

Adjustable trac bar(if you don't have one) or a trac bar drop bracket. You could do without this but your axle would be off center.

Extended sway bar links or drop brackets

Brake lines wouldn't be a bad thing to do. I ran stock ones on 7'' lift on my 08 and it wasn't a huge issue but we did have to modify the bracket down next to the coil.

Drop pitman arm

Possibly shocks, but hard to say. I know some are 4-6'' height but some are 2-4''.

Something with the radius arm assuming you don't have an adjustable 4-link or something like that.

Another thing to think about is 7'' Icon coils from PMF are only $350 and you wouldn't have to run the spacer.


Copied off my post months back.

Ok. I gotcha. Sounds like the right way to do it. Is to just buy a new kit. I should have went with my first instinct and buy the damn 6" lift! Looks like Ill do it the right way.
Here is a pic of my truck as it sits. Thank You for your help!!!!!
