Cheap and safe lift?
First of all big fan of 4wheel off road,thanks for giving me the chance to ask you guys and gals out there this question. I have a 1997 F150 extended cab flareside 4x4, and I want to put 15x10 wheels and 33′s on it, so I was wondering what is the most cost efficient and safe lift for my application? Thanks for your time and info 97flare4x4

Tip:

Differences Between 4x4 and 2WD The first difference you will notice is that the 4WD has far greater ground clearance than a 2WD. Some 4WD's have what are called free wheeling hubs fitted to the centre of the front wheels. These hubs can be either manual, where there is a knob to be turned, automatic, where once in 4WD the hubs lock automatically or a combination of both. The idea of free wheeling hubs is to disconnect the front diff and axles from the wheel, so when traveling on highway, the vehicle doesn't have to use extra power turning these when they are not wanted.
