Talking Finally Got My Lift!

Alright, after a year of planning I finally got it. I got the Rancho 4" lift, Pocket style Bushwacker Fender Flares (painted red), the 9000XL shocks, 18" moto metal 951's, and 35" Toyo Open Country M/T. I'm only 16 and paying for it all myself so do go hammering me saying I didn't work for it haha. Lol as of right now I've got 467 pictures of all F150's saved on my Ipod just to make sure everything looked ok. I've been going back and forth for over a year. Everything came in 2 day ago( except the flares that was a while ago), but I'm going to need a full weekend to put it on so its not on yet, I play football and we are in playoffs now so unless we go all the way or lose.... I could possibly have it on next week.

Anyways since everyone is always picky and wondering the measurements of everything does anyone want me to take any(specify where to where)? I got my dads stock truck on 31's my truck on 31's leveled, and going to be 35's with 4" lift. So just to help some people out does anyone need anything?

Congrats man, it always feels better when you accomplish it all yourself. I was as bad as you when I was 16 and it was cars then and 16 years later it's still cars (with expensive sporting shotguns and women thrown in for good measure to ensure I'm perpetually spending too much money).

I got a 4" Rancho because 1) I've heard good things about 2)...some stupid reason my dad didnt want me to be that high ( anyways the rancho 4" sits pretty close to a 5 or 6" anyways, and I know I wont go any higher than a 6" and there are plenty things I could do on top of the lift if I really do want 6") 3) I don't want to look like some show-off running around school with a big@$$ F150 looking like I'm all that. and 4) I've always liked how it sits with 35's.
