1970 f100 lift questions! Hopefully you can help!

[straight-shot]

I have been wanting to build a bumpside for a long time so I just bought a 1970 f100 that is in pretty good shape. body is pretty good with the usual bumps and bruises. Rust in the front fenders and some in the rear of the box in front of the tail lights. Needs cab mounts too. Overall truck is in average condition for the year.
I am thinking I want to put on a 6" lift and run 35" tires.
First, does anyone have any pics of or know where I can find any f100's with this setup?
Second, can you recommend a lift?
I have found a 6" from Superlift that I'm leaning towards. Any info on this lift?
Thanks in advance!

35s will fit with a 4-inch lift. With a 6-inch, you'll need to lengthen the driveshafts and get longer brake hoses... cha-ching.

I had to piece my lift together because Superlift was backlogged for five months. Components from Rancho, Skyjacker, BDS, Jeff's Bronco Graveyard, Rough Country, plus a Superlift adjustable track bar came in from all over the country. As of now, if I had to do it again, I'd look to either Rough Country or BDS. Beware, some kits come with shocks and some do not. Budget accordingly.

Contact Rocky Mountain Suspension out of North Carolina. They're a drop shipper and have pretty good prices.

Do you have power steering? Ya might want PS when running bigger tires with a wider footprint.

Thanks for the info HIO!
I have looked at bds and skyjacker and both are similar in price. bds is more but I had a bds on my 01 powerstroke and was happy with it so I might look deeper into that one.
I don't have power steering but it's ok. Driving my truck will relieve me from going to the gym every night
What setup do you have and do you have any pics?
Thanks!

Sure...4-inch lift and 35s... but it's a 73 F100.
I've got a 2WD Bump build thread over in FTE. 'Just dropped in the FE and a new TKO-500: http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/11548 ... build.html:
