Default Ordering this week!..What's next?!

Hey guys,I will be ordering a 2014 FX4 Super Crew 5.5ft bed in tuxedo black with a 6.2 this week! The truck will have all the goodies, leather, nav, sunroof, etc, etc.

My first mods will be as follows:
- 2" front and 1" rear leveling kit
- 295/60/20 Nitto Trail Grapplers
- Corsa Cat-Back Exhaust
- 5 star tuning SCT tuner
- Weather Tech mats
- Tint

I am coming from a 2011 FX4 with the 5.0L. What has changed since 2011? Is there anything I should be aware of? What do you guys suggest for my next mods?

The dash lay out of the MFT is much better on the 13+ I think you will be very happy with the 14. Wish the FX2s came with the 6.2L i would have gotten that over my 5.0L. Not that I'm not happy with the 5.0L cause I love it. I just go but the old school term, there's no replacement for displacement.

Sounds like you've already got enough to keep you busy.
How about some photos as you go?

Sounds like a nice build and good luck with the truck when it arrives.

Get those 6.2L engines while you can - it appears orders need to be in by May 23.

I've heard that the 2014's are a little different if you want to level them? Can someone elaborate on this?

I think ford changed the lower control arm or something on 2014, but im pretty sure if your just doing a spacer type level on top of shock that will still work since that hasnt changed.

Likewise, ordering my own today with config shown in my intro post link below. My specs are more "function" than "zoot" with no plans to mod it beyond adding a few things. Yep, window is closing to get a 6.2 like the OP and I want...
