I removed my crash bars. I didn't cut them, I removed them. The bumper needs to be off to take them out once I cut the bolts..

Sure - https://store.dirtydog4x4.com/access...ford-f150.html
I don't see why it wouldn't work for a supercab - it basically hooks to the top and bottom of the side pillar covers, the grab handles, and to the bottom of the console / jumpseat.

Edit: I just noticed a review from someone that had a supercab, and they said there wasn't anywhere to hook the upper straps to since y'all don't have grab handles

It took me a week in beautiful weather but it's done. Glass, wheels, leather. I'm foregoing wax and using a polymer sealant (Meguiars M21) now. A little more work, it lasts longer, but you don't want to get this stuff on your black plastic so I tape it off.

There's a lot of other great products out there!

Getting too old for doing crew cabs!

Put the rear bilstein 5100s on today. Don't have the stones to do the fronts so I'll take it to someone next week.

Good move doing the fronts, too, regardless of how they get tossed in there.

Did you follow the instructions for the rear install? because the shock mount bolts should be tightened and torqued when the truck is *on the ground* at normal ride height. Has to do with shock bushing torsion.

And, man! Are you going to be happy with the change in driving dynamics of your F150.

Finally got around to changing out my headlights. Had the anzos sitting in my garage for a bit.

yea i did the whole install without jacking it up at all. i took it out to grab food tonight and could tell a difference just driving it a couple miles down the street. No more bouncing around! Can't wait to get the fronts on and cant wait to see how it feels with the camper in tow.
