Hey everyone I'm new to f150 forum and id like to post my first thread and start making changes to my fx4. I plan to put a 2.5 hellbentsteel leveling kit on my fx4 with 18in fuel offroad octanes and 33in mudgrapplers. I know when I intall the leveling kit I have to get it realigned. I called a shop and they quoted me around 400 for just installation that include alignment and cam bolts. I plan to do the installation myself and then go get it realigned but do I really need to buy aftermarket cam bolts or will the factory ones work just fine with the realignment. And if so, what kind should I buy that would be the best bang for my buck.

Thanks for the help

Without even knowing what cam bolts are I can tell you that you don't need new ones.

Just make sure you have the right size socket for the lower shock bolt, a really good pry bar and a really good torque wrench. Other than that just use the instructions HBS supplies and you'll be fine.


Good luck.

I'd feel a lot better about answering your question if you weren't a Kyle Busch fan.....

OH....Welcome the Forum!!

there are no cams with the factory setup. you don't have to have the cams, but it makes it nice when doing the alignment.

When i took mine to the allignment shop after I installed my kit, the camber was spot on but it was toed in really bad. All they had to to was adjust that and it was good to go. Some people may not be as lucky but i was

u dont need the cam bolts. i put the 3in kit from heelbentsteel on my 04. just put them on realigned and done. i love the way it looks and drives, i have been 4x4 a few times and it great.
