    Thanks for all the info. You've been a great help and given me some relief. Once the truck is done will post pic with our 20 ft. bike hauler we use to get to bike weeks that we use as chase truck. That is the one reasons with not going big on the lift. Try to keep it modest for MPG and other state vehicle laws on wheel/tires extending from the body. Trust me, wanted to go 3" to 6" susp and 3" body for monster look. I'll be checking back to see any additional upgrades on your truck. Again, thank you and be safe. Sweet truck by the way.

    Wondering if you could help with info. I ordered Gear Alloy 715 Recoils for my 2007 4x4 F150 and they have the same back space of 6.18" with 30mm Offset and will have 305/55/20 Nitto. Truck is getting a 3" Readylift on front and 3" Readylift blocks on back. With seeing your postings I now have concerns.
    1) How bad did yours rub the calipers and any other clearance problems?
    2) Are you having any problems with the front Balljoints?
    3) How much did your MPG go down with new tire and wheel combo?
    4) Is there any other problems that have come up since installing the lift, wheels and tires?
    Any insight would be of great help.Thanks in advance.

    Howdy all - the trimming I have done to the front lower plastic will be up soon. The pics I took were crap so redoing them. Just posted some pics that show the caliper grinding I had to do so the back of the rims would not rub the caliper housing. Very minor - plus I wanted to clean and paint up the ford factory installed rust.....

    Next items - hypertech programmer for speedo correction and power - although there is plenty of power, exhaust tip, undercover swingout toolboxes, and yet to be determined bed cover - either diamondback or undercover. I need one that can carry weight on top. Will also be looking at a possible grill change. Will be swapping out the tails and maybe front lights with the 2010 harley trucks.

    Better pics will be posted when I get a day off.

    it just really didn't level it out. the back end still sits higher than the front, and on my 06 the front end was higher. i like urs better, i should've gone with 35's instead of 33s
