8" Rize - 09' Platinum F150 - DONE!

Picked up the truck from the shop today and I could not be happier! Total lift is 11" in the front and 10" in the rear and it is sitting a tad high in the front which I don't mind at all Lift comes from 8" Rize suspension lift and King coil-overs ordered to provide 1" out of the box and then cranked 2" with room to spare for a total of 11" ! Rear lift is coming from a 4" Skyjacker spring pack, and the 6" Rize block being held up by King piggy backs for 10". Still waiting on the Rize rear traction bars and still getting the run around on them, but here it to hoping

I am getting some rear end vibration from the drive shaft, but due to having a 2 peice drive shaft I might luck out with a simple carrier barring drop which has been ordered and hope is here next week. If it doesnt work, then custom will be a go.

Truck is dirty as hell, but here are some pics to tide over the masses until I find the time to clean her up. Enjoy!

Bro were you in Killeen today? I swear i saw your truck or there must be another one like yours. I knew it was an 09 platinum addittion but didnt pay too much attention as i didnt wanna hit someone haha. But truck looks sexy man. Love the kings. Any idea of when the traction bars will be in? Thats the only reason i wanna stick with the block in the rear and run 8inch leaf packs as well.

However are you missing a dust cover on the front driveshaft where it marrys to the front diff?

I'm gonna say those are 16" springs, but are they 700# or 600#

Thanks for all the positive feedback!

jd2518,
The whole murdered out look has been played out in my opinion, and honestly I like the contrast the platinum accents, and lift give the truck. My previous 300c SRT8 was completely murdered out, and now im going for a change Also, the front res comes with a mount that bolts onto the same point as the front tow hooks. It is sturdy as hell and a safe place for it to sit.

bulldogfan / hawaiian boy,
They are 37x13.50x22 Toyo MT's on 22" KMC Rockstars.

Jcaz07,
If you are asking about the shocks they are King's f/r, not sure what a pumper is

mhockey,
Nope, been in SA. I think the guy that bought my BDS lift lives around that area, and bougth the same front replacement bumper as mine so it could have been him. No idea on the Tbars, I keep getting the run around. Thye like to say, " It will be two more months" Have heard it for 7.5 months now.

FX4Life,
Ha I noticed the dust cover as well a long time ago. My truck didn't have one on it when I had the BDS kit put on, and it was also missing all the rivets for the fender flares. Oh and they are #600.
