Re: Lifted 2wd?

There is about an 8" difference in curb height between a 72 and a 2012. Much of that is the cab interior height and the fact the floorpan sits pretty much flat on top of the wider frame. Trying to raise the truck that much is going to be costly to have it done right and still ride like a street truck. A set of taller front springs, rear blocks and 33" (255-85R 16 for example) tires should do a lot without killing the ride.
