more flex from stock suspension or just go f150 springs

I'm looking to get more flex from stock supsension. Not really looking to lift it and mess with my center of gravity or have my 32's look tiny with a lift. Would just getting longer travel shocks do the trick with maybe some shackles? Any ideas? if I did end up lifting it I was thinking f150 springs. Any one running those?

Front? Rear? Both?

Seems like lots of fab work for minimal to no gain.

I'm looking to get about 3 or 4 inches from both axles. I did do a search. Maybe I'm not using the right key words cause all my results came up with vehicles that aren't sfa.

Go with the ford 57 inch or chevy 63 inch springs. I have the chevys and I think they do great.
