I will be picking my new truck up on Tuesday. 2012 F150 4X4 5.0. Im kinda curious of any issues that anyone may have with theirs, and how much lift do i hve to put on it to fit minimum 38's!! Ive been in a few F150s and was finally convinced to get one after many years with Chevrolets. Anyway, good to be here, and i know i will love the new ride!!

 

I think you're looking at 8" or more lift up front.

welcome and howdy!

PS love me some Shiner too

 

Thats kind of what I was thinking.... Its definitely gonna be a couple months before i can do the lift.

Even my dog is named Shiner, makes me sound like an alkie!!

Hey Shiner5.0....welcome to the Forum! Hope you find it as useful as I did and still do. Everyone in here is friendly and can help you with almost anything you want to know.

For instance, I have a question for you. What is a Shiner?? Is it a Texan thing? Just curious.

All the best to you!

 

Only the best local Texas beer ever, 100+ years of brewing

 

Definitely the best... Shiner Bock is my favorite but there are a couple more that are good also. Shiner Blonde and Ruby Redbird are good...

 

Nothing better then a cold Shiner Bock enjoyed in The Great State of Texas!

 

welcome, enjoy the 4.88 gear swap, at leat 8 inches of lift


I can't wait to see how it looks

 

Welcome and have to agree with the Shiner comments! Definitely the best. Where are you in Texas?

 

Im in Katy, i just moved down here for work. Im originally from east Texas around Tyler. Im loving this new truck! I gotta put 4.88s in it to run 38s? Must explain why i dont see to many of them lifted that high...
