    did they discontinue the lift for the 97-03s? If I'm not mistaking a guy on here with a burgundy 97 bought one a while back. That sucks though. Hope you guys get your money back. If you do and still want to go suspension check out rough country. I've seen a ton of reg cab 4x4s with that lift kit.

    Zone still makes it, as i asked a rep whos on F150Forum not long ago. the RCX is nice, but i dunno if i want to stack a BL with it. I kinda really want to run 37's, since i know i wont like 35's after a few months. But if i go with 20x12's, i'll have to BL anyways. All depends on where i'll be at height wise for the laws here.

    Lol. I'd drive it up there, but my luck we would run into a problem, and i'd be sol.

    but you probably wouldn't run into a problem with a bodylift unless the body bolts are as stubborn as my lower A arm bolts. hopefully the mounts aren't rusted through

    haha im sure the install would be fine. we torched bed bolts till they got red hot and they came right out. that was the only problem aside from the drivers side core mount.

    The core mounts are what scare me. The SCab is starting to rust near the body mount on it. I can only imagine the black truck could be the same.
