The Donahoe Racing method of lifting the front end of the F150 is (IMO) likely a better engineering solution, than is the 'quick and dirty' spring spacer lift that Daystar is offering. There is no info on their web site now, but I will be interested to see what they price their lift at, and who the shock mfg is.

Food for thought... It may pay to be patient on getting a lift done for the new F150, as some of the better players (like Edge) will, no doubt, soon have better lift solutions available. It would be a shame, to screw up the nice ride qualities that Ford engineered in to their new F150.

So I emailed Off Road Unlimited about their Black 04 Scab and they said they will have pics up on the website the first week in November because the truck has to be finished for SEMA. i am eagerly awaiting those pics, it was a damn sweet truck.

the truck is even more impressive in person. oh baby, believe me...

beastboy, all of that stuff was custom. custom Bilstein lift, custom Borla Exhaust, in house fabricated grill guards, custom wheels, etc. none of those are kits unless ORU decides to put out stuff using the same components. luckily they are not far from me. damn, this is going to get expensive...

I've never been a huge fan of lifts but this one looks sweet and functional. I want more pics of the interior too, looks like they did a nice job on the head unit/nav system.
