    I had a '96 Bronco with a Rough Country 3" front suspension, rear block lift. You can look at the Krew Kab Klogger build thread. The Klogger started as a 6" front superlift coils and 6" blocks in the back. I have switched to a shackle flip.

    Your '93 F-150 is a great truck. Ford really had the fuel injection thing down with that truck. They are simple, you can work on them, it is not uncommon to get 300k out of that truck. Other than the wind noise in the cab and lack of an air bag, it is a truck that can compete with the new ones.

    I daily drove the Bronco, I went all over with a 3" lift. If this is to be a dailt driver I would stop around 3 or 4 inches of lift. If you leave the front open (unlocked) the TTB will hold up to 35's easily. BDR had a '95 F-150 that spent it's entire life on 36's or 35's with little issue.

    The blocks in the rear are cheap, I think I still have mine if you want them, but I would say the shackle flip is much better than the blocks. For a truck that will see some towing, the lifted leaf springs are probably the way to go.

    One more note on TTB, you can get spare parts for almost free. Talk to Mayfield about the cost of straight axle parts.
