Looks good!

 

looks good dude.... now all you need is a CB and whip antenna......

yeehaw!

 

you know, i never really liked white but on these trucks...DAMN!

 

thanks for the compliments and stopping in to see my truck.

Beaver Trick, funny you mention antenna, thats my next mod, a shorty antenna since the stock one slaps the garage door everytime I pull in or out.

 

I see you used a 2" 4x4 block. How easy was it to install?

 

had both the front and rear done by a friend of my brothers that runs a truck accessory shop. The whole deal took less than two hours, including a side trip to take the strut towers to a shop that had a heavy duty spring compressor. They had the rear axle done in about 20-30 minutes. The neat thing is the rear setup is all Ford factory parts. The block can be ordered thru Ford parts, as well as U-bolts and nuts. The block has two notches in it to align with the plate that the leaf spring sit on. The front was done on the ground with floor jacks, the rear on a lift with a tranny jack to hold the axle while they did one side at a time. This shop has done several 6 inch lifts for my brothers dealership so they had all the takeoff parts laying about, which made it real nice for me. They only charged me for the cost of the Daystar kit, no labor! Then I took it to the dealership and had it aligned.

 

With the truck on a slanted drive way it was a little hard to tell... but basically the front end still slopes forward, but it just sits higher now, right?

Looks sharp.

 

thats true. I still have a forward slope of about 1-1.5 inches. Before the level kit and blocks my truck had a two inch difference front to rear. It doesnt seem as dramatic as the slopes I have seen on some FX4's. The Daystar kit raised the front a little more than the blocks did in the back, so I still have some slope but not as much. I wanted mine that way because when I tow my boat it pulls the rear down about 2 inches. I didnt want it to look like it was dragging **** when towing. When the front kit was installed by itself it was not level, but rather the front was high by about an inch. To me it looks more natural to have a slight rake to the front, but not the 2-3 inches that some have from the factory. I know the pics are not that great, there were taken with a regular 35mm auto focus and several did not come out right. I will take some more this week after I shine it up again and park it on level ground so ya'll can get a better view.
