i own a 1.5" spacer still
Im thinking for the rear do a 2" AAL
just unsure bout the front...bilsteins? my spacer? a new 2" spacer instead?
If you dont want to add more lift (since you already have 6") you could do fiberglass fenders and fit 37s .... just a thought

haha yeah i have a thread on the 09+ about it.

I am worried, cause i dont want to look liike im copying a raptor. But im also trying to keep my center of gravity where its at.
Then Im worried that fiberglass fenders would make my trucks wheels look skinny. My offset is 0, but I dont wanna get all extensive with new axles, LCAs, UCAs, steering, etc.

I am looking at biting the bullet and doing the fox coilovers from BDS. but that would cost a pretty penny with 37s and new gears haha

LOL yea ... we are trying to separate the two divisions:

Brenthel Industries = Race Vehicles & Prototyping

Baja Kits = Suspension Systems & Truck Accessories

We have only been promoting it that way for the last year, but most dont realize Brenthel = Baja Kits

I wouldnt worry about copying a raptor, as we have had a lot of F150s rocking larger fenders way before the Raptor came out. Fiberwerx makes really nice products and thats what we use on all of our trucks.

As for wheels offsets, you could get by with some hub centric spacers, as thats what I am doing on my JK Wrangler. They are fairly inexpensive at around $80 a set. Just be sure to buy HUB CENTRIC ones as the non-hub centric ones will give you wobbles and issues.

Someone is offering me their ADD venom bumper for sale this summer...

I think Im gonna give up on trying to raise my truck anymore suspension wise. Keep the COG where its at, and work at getting 37s under there either way (fenders etc)

Anyone have any opinions on a reasonable way to upgrade my audio? Dont wanna do a new head unit, just thinking of maybe some door speaks, and a powered sub. Component, 2/3/4 way, etc I have no clue...gonna read on here more.

Bout to look into your UCA preorder now [MENTION=147935]Baja Kits[/MENTION]

I had memphis audio in my old f150 and loved it...buddy used them in his competition car and has won some trophies for sound. Spent about 600bucks for a screw to have a 10in sub , box, amp and door speakers installed.

Let us know if you decide to do Fiberglass as we have good pricing on Fiberwerx products

And as for the UCA, its going to be really nice. As far as I know its the ONLY boxed upper control arm for the F150, everyone else uses tubes.

What time frame are you looking at for release?
and Baja Kits, how would I go about trying to get King Coilovers to fit my BDS lift?
