Here is the 145" with the A-S 1.5" level. Still on the factory Bridgestone 32s. Likely will be on Toyo or Nitto 33s next.

Don't know what wheels those are. That was my s-i-l's deal. They won't be on mine. He likes the black and I'm fine with aluminum.

That is a little expensive for a block. Most I see are anywhere from $130-$150. But it does seem the 2inch blocks are harder to find.

Great transformation as in simple and just right. Kinda has "speeding" all over it. I like that truck!

Makes you wonder why they don't just "come that way". What's the annual aftermarket on F-150s (let alone the global half-ton market)?

Why can you not order the degree of rake you want (assuming an order)? Why do they all have to be the same? Why not become an industry leader in "stance" as well as overall looks?

Yeah, mass production. Seems like another $395 option might be eluding the marketing dept.

This is exactly the look I'm going for, is it 1.5 or 2? What size rear block? Link to the rancho setup you bought?

I just picked up a nice 2011 Screw. I am amazed at how smooth these late model trucks ride. It rides like a lifted Crown Victoria LOL.

Will a leveling kit and bigger tires kill my cooshy ride?

^ Yes, the car like ride goes away. But it is totally worth seeing how different your truck looks and all the compliments you get.
