doesnt offset just distinguish how much your wheels will stick out?

You have gotten me so much closer to getting this done. I still just am confused about which kit I will need. thats all still a little bit blurry for me. I am also affraid that my lift spindles on my truck now will be a problem when i put the kit on, depending on which ever one i get.

offset is how far the hub goes past the center of the wheel either more into the wheel or more out of the wheel. http://www.raceandroad.com/images/ns-offsetexplained.jpg

well Idk what to tell you about the sprindles...might need to put the stocks back on it you can idk. however you cant go wrong with either kit I showed you. I have the springtech kit on my truck and its held up very well especially through some abuse. the belltech kit is an even better kit than mine so you would be fine with either, just make sure you have a camber kit.

how much are the camber kits, and where can i get them? the ford dealership right?

some belltech kits come with camber kits but if your kit doesnt you can buy one from ebay or the dealership and prices will range from $40-$50

sounds good...all you need to do now is buy one of the kits and install the spindles and kit then pick up some rims and tires.
