The drop, shocks and anti-sway bars are going on Friday. Major alignment Saturday morning. Since the TPMS reset tool made it in, I'm going to try and get the tires mounted to the wheels Saturday, also. Exhaust is suppose to be here Friday. If I can squeeze it in Saturday afternoon, it's going on as well. Trying to be patient. Before and after pics to come. - Og

Supercharging is out of the question for at least a year! I would love to get my hands on a Roush! Thanks for the compliments, but I wish I could have gotten my hands on an anniversary HD (2003) like you did. They don't make 'em like that anymore. Stealth's my buddy! He's guided me in the right direction for a while now. I blame him for the money I've been spending! - Og

Official Update

Last night I installed the TPMS sensors to the wheels. That's right. In the living room. (My wife was gone.)




Early this morning, I got the tires mounted and did not put them on the truck because the drop was next. Wanted the alignment done with the factory wheels.



After that, I was at the friggin' custom shop all day. 9am - 6pm. During that time, I got some bad news. The anti-roll kit does not fit the 2007 F150. Front or rear. It's made only for 2006 and back. Of course, I was pissed. I got over it slowly during the long wait. I didn't know my truck had a factory installed front sway bar because I didn't look. That kinda helped the pain go away. After the drop, I took it on the interstate to check for vibration, ride and handling. Got up to 75 mph. Keep in mind that I haven't had the alignment done yet. I was shocked about how great the ride quality was. The 2/4 drop plus the dampers were excellent! I really couldn't tell that much of a difference in the ride. Big ups to everybody who advised me on the right parts. Even without the sway kit or the alignment, the truck rides great. When I got home, finally, I had another surprise. The Corsa exhaust and my decals from Patriot made it in. So tomorrow, alignment, wheel/tires on and a good wash job. The smoked Hellas probably won't be back until some time next week. The weather is great for a clean "after" pic. More pics to come. - Og

Sweet man, Now go wax those rims before they go on! what was the problem with the roll bars? your harley is 2WD and being a 2007 should not make a difference,I think someone just wanted to get out of doing the install?

Nah. They showed me the difference. At the end where the bar meets the tie-rod end, there is an angle on the Eibach sway bar. The factory sway bar does not connect with an angle. It drops straight on. The installer showed me the problem. Again, I was pissed. Think about trying the sell the entire kit or send it back to Sears. Going to give the guys on the forum first dibs. - Og
