My Bling Bling is on....

Finally got my wheels and tires and I must say I'm impressed. Only problem is that when I back up the tires rub the back of the fender. Not when I go forward and turn but when I back up and turn. That is weird. Anyway, I have 305/70-17's and I decided to fix my problem I need a 2" or 3" body lift. Anybody make one for my truck?



Eagle 136 size 17x10 Super Finish with Summit Mud Dawg size 305/70-17 tires and a Daystar 2.5" leveling kit.

I got the tires from a local (wholesale only) warehouse called Harris Tire. Since I got them wholesale they only cost me $125.10 each. Not bad for some 17's I must say. I'd be willing to extend this deal to anyone in my area or anyone willing to drive this way and meet up. Thanks for the thumbs up man. I know I don't have as many mods as others but you gotta start somewhere right?

Well my problem is I have the STX 4x4 (removed my sticker) and the 4.6L so that kit won't work on my truck. I'm guessing nobody else makes one to fit?

Yeah I'll post some more pictures when I get better weather. It's been raining here for 3 days now. Thanks guys.

I spoke with the guys at Performance Accessories today and they told me that they need someone to bring them a 4.6L 4x4 to use to fabricate a body lift for it. I told him I would but I live too far away. I can't afford the money or time right now or I'd take mine to him. I know the frame is totally different on the front end and rear end between the 5.4L truck and the 4.6L truck. This is the reason the kit will only fit a 5.4L truck. Their local Ford dealership won't work anything out with them so they are waiting for a consumer to show up and donate their truck. Would be nice to roll out with a free body lift.

Come on guys! Will someone from AZ please go by and drop your 4.6L 4x4 to them so they can help us guys get hooked up?
