What height lift kit do I need for a F150 4x4 to fit 35 inch tires and to fit 37 inch tires?

What brands do you recommend? Thanks!

31's may be even 32's will fit without a lift depending on how wide you go 35's a 4" lift and 37's a 8" to 9 " depending on tire width. New a guy that put 35's under a stock truck and cranked the torsion bars all the way out and put a 2" block under the back. The truck did ok, but it will wear out ever part under your front end fast not to mention it's hard to keep aligned and your tires will wear faster. it ended up costing more money in the long run than if he did it right to begin with.

If I am going to do it, I will do it right. Nothing worse than a sloppy truck cruising down the highway!

Sloppy is bad enough, but unsafe with wrong suspension...worst yet! You Agree?

the new trucks are still limited on kits available 2001-2006 but I belive there are ones from pro comp and sky jacker that work well and drive nice. if you buy a new truck do it right and go aheed and spend another 3% don't buy a 40,000.00 truck and put a 40.00 lift and 2500.00 tires on it that never feel right to drive. talk to the experts at the shop as to tire size lift size and buy it all to fit and drive together. having a warranty is always nice too and some (most) home modifications negate the mfg warranty.
yes I am a salesman but I believe what I say I'm not trying to upsell you here its true.
