Just bought my first truck, 02 f150 super crew 2wd and its going to be my daily. But I can't stand to see it stock anymore so I decided to go with the prerunner style. Keep in mind its my daily so I don't want to go all out I just want the basics such as fiberglass bumpers etc. Its going to be my first build so I have lots of questions.what will I need as far as suspension? Do I need to lift it at all? Are 33" tires to small for a prerunner? Do I need to upgrade the rear suspension? Can they stay stock? Any input would be greatly appreciated thanks!

Find some spindles and fiberglass fenders for it and you can clear 35's. My supercrew had an H&M kit and cleared 37's without a problem.



My 01 had Hanneman fenders and 35's. Cleared MTR's with no problem.

How did you get the tires to kick out to the side? I'm looking to do this on my '12 supercrew, but the way I want it seems like it's gonna cost 8 to 10 grand after it's all said and done.

Offset wheels. A deeper wheel will push the tire more out away from the truck causing them to stick out.

The right way to do it is to buy proper wheels designed to do it, the wrong (and unsafe) way is to get big wheel spacers.

The truck had an H&M front end on it. Lift spindles will widen the track width slightly but they're not made for the newer trucks that I've seen unless they're fabricated spindles.
