Re: Lift or f250? Help

Re: Lift or f250? Help

So lifting my 97 would be cheaper than the '00 I found?

Would a 97 be worth lifting? My truck is in good shape, no body rust

Re: Lift or f250? Help

Ya I thought the same on the miles but the f250 is a diesel and people say diesels last awhile. I'll probably go with lifting a ranger. Jut need help on right lift kit etc.
