2014 F150 4x4 Front hub options
I'm in the process of buying parts to finish the rear of my truck (4 link) and in looking for rear ends all the hubs have bolt patters of 6x5.5 or 5x5.5. Going this route I would need front hubs to match but with 4WD what are my options?

What exactly are you looking for....a straight axle swap for the front, or trying to swap hubs and keep the IFS or what?
What width? What tire size? What are you using for a rear axle? There's no reason you can't 4 link an F150 9.75" rear and keep your lug pattern if you want. But if you are swapping a front straight axle, you'll probably have to change the lug pattern anyway. For a full size driver side drop straight axle, a Ford HP44 or HP60 in 5 or 8 lug is a good start.

It's a prerunner. I have a LTK up front with coil overs / bypass / bumps. Track width up front is 90". Looking at 3.5 fabricated housing. Rear is already too narrow and I'm already committed to go full retard on the rear. Backhalf / 4 link / cell. It's already caged. Running deavers / bedcage 3.0 triple bypass in the back right now. Running spacers for clearance. I want more uptravel and a bulletproof rear end and not have to worry about launching it.

I don't have a clue about the IFS stuff. But if you are doing a full custom rear shafts anyway, then you can have them drilled whatever pattern you need to match whatever you come up with for the front.
