The blocks are out. The rears are done. Thanks to all of you who provided the answers with gave me the confidence to tackle this project. I think I'll pay the local garage to put the front shocks in, and lower the springs.

The truck looks leveled. It measures about 37 1/4 inches in the front, and 37 1/2 inches in the back. Here is how it looks. What do you think?



This is what I took out:

 

Block out.

 

Are you planing on changing the shocks? I don't think it is necessary, but some have mentioned it before.

 

Looks good!
Hey, are you looking to off-load your old bolts & blocks?
Sent you a PM.

 

Hey Greencrew are you colorblind?

Truck looks good man.

Isn't this site great!

 

I think he goes to the same eye doctor I use.

 

Best recommendation yet. No shackles, better handling.

 

I put on a new set of Bilstein shocks. I spent a little extra to get the adjustable shocks which will go from 4x2 0 to 2" lift. That way if I go back to the stock 4x4 high I can use the same shocks.

I'm planning on keeping the blocks in case I ever sell the truck I can put them back in. I'll probably put the 4x4 shocks on ebay though.

 

This is my fourth F150. I should have know better than to put the color in the name. My wife picked the color of this truck.

 

What height does that kit end up at? I'm not going for a low rider, just stock 4x2.

 

I'm looking at $220 to have the front shocks put on at the local repair shop. This project is getting expensive.

 

I did the same thing, at least you didn't put the year in your name like I did.

 

I came close to doing the same thing to mine, and after seeing what yours looks like with rear blocks out I should have! Congrats and it looks awesome!

 

Good point, I stand a chance of going green again. I think I'll get another 9 years out of this red.

 

Thanks, it was leveled.

The front shocks are on now. I'll measure and get new pics later.
