Added an FX4 badge to the truck today

Like I did to my other 2 FX4's I put an FX4 badge on the tailgate of my 13. I put the center of the badge 6.25" from the edge of the tailgate.



I also removed the rear blocks to level out the truck some until I wear out the pirellis.



BTW I measured the blocks after I pulled them, and on a 13 FX4 screw with a 5.5 bed they are 1 3/16"

I know it's not for everybody but I like it and that's what counts.

Cool

I like it....I kinda did the same thing. I took a V8 badge from an Explorer (I think from a '02-'04?), and put it on the tailgate at about the same area. I also put one on the dash under the passenger side A/C vent by the door. I had put a set on the fenders of my '94 T'bird and had a couple extra incase I had a mishap and needed them. It's kind of hard to see in this picture. I also put th SCT badge directly under the F150 badge. I like it....

Looks pretty good. If you had the appearance pkg red badges it would even more probably, blend with the red FX4 bed decals and such.

Those blocks get smaller and smaller. Did you need new U-bolts?

I probably could have gotten by with the 4x4 bolts but I ponied up and bought a set of 2wd ones. They were less than 50 bucks for a set from Tasca, chump change as far as I'm concerned.

I remember the blocks on my 05 were a real 2" then the 07 was 1 5/8", now the 13 is only 1 3/16"
