it can be done but i think the f-150 springs are 3+in lift and they ride like hell....and thats only the front 'm telling you dude just get a kit it will be cheaper in the long run

i'm pretty sure it is mid 90s f150 coils and s10 leaf spings mid to late 90s. both should come from 4x4s. the ride is not bad it is what I have. I did not build it po diid. about 4inches of lift.:thumbsup:
