Lifted my truck
So as some of you know I recently got new tires on my truck
https://www.f150online.com/forums/wh...new-shoes.html
Wellllll that started a whole new problem that had them rubbing on the upper control arm
So I than had to buy new rims that pushed the tire out more and that gave me a whole lot of rubbing on the front and rear fenders (knew I had to get a lift with the new rims before I ordered them)
Well after a few days of working on it with a friend of mine we were finally done! It was a lot harder than I was expecting .... we had to drop everything down the front diff the rack and pinon had to swap all the parts out inside the knuckle extend the brake lines and the list goes on haha
It's finally done and I'm loving it! Wish I had done it sooner though onto the pics
New Rims Moto Metal 18"x9 -12 offset
New rims and tires no lift
Pulled up ready to start
Just a during pic I snapped
New Crossmembers and skid plate
All done and on the ground!
Outside in front of Poorboy's World
Had to give her a quick wash with Super Slick and Wax and used QD+ as the drying aid
So that's it here is a quick comparison of before and after
Loving the high life driving around
Just a bit of info truck is an 07 4wd and the lift is a Rough Country 6" Lift with Bilisten shocks all around

Very nice, the wheels fit the look of the truck good.
