Tuff Country 73-79 Ford F-150 4X4 4in Performance Lift Kit (w/2.5in Wide Rear Springs SX8000)

If you're looking to give your 1973-1979 Ford F-150 4x4 a 4-inch lift, this Performance Lift Kit from Tuff Country is a solid option. It's designed to provide a noticeable increase in ground clearance for tackling rougher terrain while aiming to maintain a comfortable ride similar to your factory setup. This kit includes components that work together to achieve that desired lift height and improved off-road performance without compromising too much on daily driving comfort.

Tuff Country has put together a comprehensive package here, focusing on delivering the critical parts needed for a safe and effective installation. They've paid attention to details like the rear springs, specifying 2.5-inch wide ones, and included their SX8000 shocks, which are known for their good ride quality. The goal is to give you the best of both worlds: the capability to explore off the beaten path and a comfortable experience when you're back on the road. This kit is built to be durable for off-road use, so you can feel confident when you venture out.

When installing this kit, keep in mind that new shocks are required, and Tuff Country provides specific part numbers for different configurations. For example, the Pitman arm #70203 is only compatible with 1978-1979 F-150 models. It's also important to check your vehicle's existing shock mounts, as they can vary by year. Most trucks will have stem-to-eye front and eye-to-eye rear mounts, but if your vehicle came with a factory quad shock option, you'll need a different shock part number. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for the most accurate guidance on fitment and installation procedures.
