My X was lowered by its previous owner.
I am having it restored to stock height this week to get more ground clearance.
Anything I should ask for in this department as long as it's being worked on?

Maybe a rear swaybar and some shocks. Is it a 2X4 or 4X4?

It's a 2 wheel drive.
I've heard mention of lubing support points to eliminate squeaking.
Any more details?

What are you going to do with the aftermarket suspension?

I might take it off your hands if you are interested.

Oops didn't notice the date. Need to get used to the new year still.

As long as you are going to do it, I would get some stiffer and 2" taller coils for the front and put three inch F350 blocks in the rear to level it out and get a bit more height. Add some Bilsteins, sway bar and you'll be good to go.

If it's a PS I'd add three inches of spring over stock up front to get it level.

Good luck.
