I have a '95 F-150 and I want to lift it 6 inches to run 35's. Superlift has a kit for $499 for a 6", if I do that what else am I looking at buying? (driveshafts, brake lines...)
Any help would be appriciated.

lengthened driveshaft, extended brake lines. If you get a six inch lift, don't use superlift, they have had a lot of problems with the TTB drop brackets breaking. Go with Dick Cepek, Rough Country, Rancho, etc. |

I have a Superlift 6" and the only problem I had was the radius arms breaking. I have never heard of the drop brackets breaking. They have since redesigned the radius arms to be stronger and they are. Looks like you are going without them though. If you can swing the extra $$$ I would suggest getting them. Also I did not have to use extended brake lines on mine but check to be sure you have enough before you take my word. Not sure with the driveshafts on an F150 but I did not need to lengthen mine. I did have both custom built though when they began to have problems (possibly becasuse they were too short.) It also wouldn't hurt to get the allignment bushings. They are fairly cheap and make alligning the TTB much easier. Good luck. By the way those other kits are fine kits also.
