More and more I find myself daydreaming about a new truck. Of course it will be lifted so how about some input? Could everyone with a new body style F-150 with a full suspension lift kit post a couple pics and a short review of their impression of their lift. Don't forget to include wheel/tire sizes and specs!

 

Procomp Stage II 6" lift. Installation was all straight from the directions. brakes were a little interesting, but other then that it was a snap. Would do another one myself after this one. 305/55/20 with 20x9 wheels 4.5" backspacing. 35s are a much better fit, but these were new and gonna wear them out first. Coilovers are a lot more responsive and the overall suspension has a stiffer feel, but not spongy as i think the stock suspensions are. Other then that its just like driving a stock truck....cranking coilovers eventually with some 37's

 

Great looking Screw! I love that color. I also like the looks of the FX4 & FX2 packages the more I see them.

 

wandell you helped me years ago lifting my 2wd 01 screw. Here's my turn to help you.

This is my 2010 FX4 screw with a 6in BDS lift and 35x12.50 Toyo Open Country's on 18in Dck Cepek rims. The lift was installed on my rig before I bought it new from my dealer so I dont have any insight on how easy the lift was to install, but I have heard it was straight forward. Heres some photos, there's more in my garage.



I havent had any issues with it on the sand or snow








The tires dont stick out all that far because of how far they tucked them in with the backspacing. Im not sure of the backspacing but there's only about a finger width inbetween the inner tire and spindle.


The only problem I have noticed with it is the powder coating on the cross members are peeling off, but I think that is due to the sandblasting of driving on the beach.

 

Here ya go wandell,
Had it installed at a shop and I'm extremely happy with the quality and ride. Here is my set-up:
6" Zone Off Road Lift Kit / 325/65/18 Nitto Terra's / 18 x 9 KMC XD Series Addict -12 Offset 4.5 BS / Yukon 4:11 Gears (in hand, waiting install)

Great looking trucks! Keep 'em coming!

 

I keep telling myself I'll wait to make it back to CONUS before lifting my truck, but the more and more I see these great looking rigs makes it that much harder to wait.

 

Here is another option Wandell:

4-inch Rancho Suspension System
35x12.50R18 BFG KM2s
18x9 XD Addicts

The Rancho is well engineeredf with welded subframe and retained the stock geometry so truck handled like factory but still rode very well even with the slightly stiffer RS5000 shocks (or you could opt for the adjustable RS9000s).

 

Wandell, Here are a few shots of my truck. I have a 6" BDS lift and 35x12.5x20 Toyo MT's on 20x9 Incubus Supernatural wheels. I am very happy with the lift and ride of my truck with the lift.

 

Dang it DeereGeff, I just went through my rationalization how I need to keep my mods pretty tame so I can use my new Plat for business purposes and commuting, and you have to post pics of yours.

Dang you!

 

Great looking trucks guys! Looks like most of the lifts come with adjustable camber bolts, or do the 09-12's come with them stock?

 

Desert Dawg, Just looking to pay you back for putting up all of the great pictures of your last trucks. I know you have made many on here question their plans with the fine trucks you have put together.

If you are looking for a little more tame, then here you go;

6" and wheels/tires, before the flares.

 

I'd been waiting to see pics of the Zone kit, looks awesome. I've been wanting to pull the trigger on one for a while.

 

The lower control arm inner bolts are through slots. No camber bolts required. This is the best pic I have from when I installed my 5100's. if you look closely at the control arm to frame mounting location you can see the slot. It is much more noticeable on the front hole in the pic, but they are the same, front and rear.

 

Man I have been getting the extreme desire to lift mine back up to stock, level it, and throw some 18s wrapped in 33s. Threads like these fuel the fire. I would just do a 6" with 35"s but I need to be able to park in my garage.
