I want to get 4 inches of lift without buying any custom springs. I was wondering if F-150 springs with my AAL and my Wa153's would come near 4"

put a body lift in it! unless you want all suspension???
 






Yes All suspension its safer
 






how is it safer? you have more weight closer to the ground with a body lift then you do a suspension lift. A suspension lift ALL your weight is higher up in the air.
 






Ok I understand the body vs suspension lift arguement but I was wanting to get a set of lift spindles and I was just wanting to know if f-150 leaves with my AAL's and WAR153's will yeild 4 inches
 












The F150 leaves add quite a bit of ride stiffness. The add-a-leaf adds alot of stiffness too. Both together would probably be unbearable. I don't think you'll get the full amount of lift you want either.

Overall, I don't think you'll be happy going that route.

Spring over axle would give you too much lift.

Best bet for 4" suspension lift is saving some money for aftermarket springs.
