First of all I'm so thankful for these types of forums! THANK YOU

I have a 2012 F150 FX4 and looking to put a quality Suspension on my truck with out making have to much of a lift, maybe 2-4' lift max?

Also reprograming the sensor for performance, do I need to buy a programer or does any shops offer this service?

Im in Huntington Beach, CA.

Thanks,

Jerry

Hi Jerry,

You are in CA and unfortunately I do not know of any SCT performance tuners that are CA legal and some places shy away from selling to us. What motor do you have?

2-3 inch lift are you planning on off roading or just mostly for looks?

Welcome to the Forums! I'm in HB too!


If you are going to be mostly off road but don't want a crazy lift, stick with a 4".


What is your budget?


Here are couple of options...

Im rocking the Stage 2 icon and am about 4 inches taller all the way around and gained wheel travel. With a 4inch drop bracket lift you will literally just lift the truck frame and the diffs will be in about the same place as stock and you wont gain much in travel :/ If you got the budget and want some real suspension for light offloading try an go ICON or Equiv!
