Yes. Any 97-up 2WD F-150 based vehicle. 4x4 kit will not, must be 2WD.

I went with the AP Racing kit after looking at everything I could find. In the end it really came down to one of the three kits from Brembo, Stoptech, or AP Racing. https://www.f150online.com/galleries...3038-40413.jpg

I looked at going with some used calipers, but never could find a deal on some. I did find a company in North Carolina that sells used parts from NASCAR teams after I purchased my brakes. They seem to have several god deals on used Brembo, AP Racing, and Wilwood brakes. The only problem seems to be getting them to fit. I will be checking them out for some rotors though. http://www.bidracer.com/

Apparently, several of the items they have aren’t even used, definitely worth a look.

Just regular old fender flares. I have the 2002 model; the dirt may throw you off.
