Truck look sweet. Time for me to save some mone for that sick Raptoid grill.

Is that setup harder on components vs a body lift?

Is this what you have? Just curious as I really like your setup

http://f150lifts.3dcartstores.com/F1...-13_p_126.html

And that 2.5" rear block gets you 1" of lift over the stock rear block, am I right?

Body lift is a waste of time. You have to get new mounts for your bumper, and all you've done is lift the cab and bed, the frame is still exactly where it is. Looks horrible IMO. Body lift does little to no wear on anything though.

Yes that's what I'm running, but mine have springs powder coated red. I will likely be replacing them soon though with an upgrade.

Decided to install a Fuse Block in the bed to power the various items I have in the back there from the lights and 12V plugs to the brake light and auto lock, as well as the soon to be installed small power inverter. This block has 6 circuits but you can get one with 12, also available with or without negative bus.


USED:

■ Blue Sea Systems Fuse Block
Amazon.com: Blue Sea Systems 5025 ST Blade Fuse Block - 6 Circuits with Negative Bus and Cover: Sports & Outdoors Amazon.com: Blue Sea Systems 5025 ST Blade Fuse Block - 6 Circuits with Negative Bus and Cover: Sports & Outdoors

■ ~30ft of 10 AWG Primary wire each (black/red)

■ MAXI Fuse holder and 100 AMP fuse

■ Assorted Radioshack connectors

■ Smart Glow ATC Fuses

■ 14 & 16 AWG primary wires

■ Heavy duty Velcro


Really easy install, real simple device, easy to use. All nice and hidden.
