What's everybody think of a 2002 F-150 Lightning Lifted with 33's on 18's, Baja Styled, and what will it take to get it there? What would be my best bet for front end parts? Deaver makes a 6 inch rear spring pack that I plan to purchase, and I am thinkin' Fabtech's Long Travel for the front. I'm deployed to Iraq, and am in a personal toss-up between the Lightning build and a 2004 4WD Double Cab Tacoma build when I get home. The reasoning for the Lightning idea is that it will be something noone else has. Let me know what you think.

It's been done. And is pretty cool when done right.
I'm not sure how the Lightning suspension differs from the regular truck, if at all, but I would steer clear from Fabtech and go straight to Camburg. If you want it to really perform and stay together doing it I would for sure go with a proven desert kit and not a lift kit like Fabtech. Thats not saying Fabtech isn't a good kit, it's just not a desert kit.

Front only. I don't know of anyone that had a front/rear 'kit'.
For the rear I'd look at something like a set of Deaver leaf springs, like you mentioned.
