Default How big?

I see that most lift kits for the 11-12 is going to be your typical 6inch kit. I was wondering if anyone out there knows of any kits that are bigger or do you have to have something custom made?

Well I thought there would be so I checked the usual suspension lift kit manufacturers that would have 8"+ lift kits.

Rize, Whiplash, Bulletproof, BDS etc. And BDS has a 6" and the rest haven't developed anything for the 09-Present MY F150

You can get up to a 14" Suspensino lift kit for the 04-08 MY F150 but apparently 09+ are limited to 6" for the time being.

I'm still in shock that there isn't anything bigger than 6". I'm like you I figured Rize or BDS had at least an 8" but BDS only has a 6" and Rize has nothing for the 09+

Yes he bought some MX6 Adjustable Coilovers for a 6" lift and set some extra pre-load on the coil to lift the front 2".

Ya I might just sit back for a while as I know a lifted f150 isn't all that uncommon but I would like to be bigger then most to be a little different lol
