If I replaced the front coil springs and wanted to say, get 2" of lift at the same time, could I just replace the coil springs with the some that are made to lift 2" over stock, or would I be better off going with stock replacements (from like Moog) and the F-150 Coil seats?
 






It a tough call.. most people can't get the front end (camber) correct using 2" lift coils w/out drop brackets. Using stock sized springs and the f-150 spring seats is always alignable..

Also, from what I've "read".. most 2" lift springs are stiffer than stock.. but I don't know for sure what brand is stiffer or softer (if any)..

stuck the SKYJACKER 2" lift spring fom summit racing in there......... took to the tire shop/alignment shop....... got it done.
Over 2" for the TTB without drop brackets = unalignable within specs
