Alright guys, I finally have some sneak peak pictures. She's not even close to being done but I figured I'd post some of how it's sitting right now. I had a few bumps in the road on the build progress mainly the wheels. I had been waiting for the BMF Rehabs for a year and finally was told they were available for the 6x139 bolt pattern a few weeks ago so I get the call that they are in and to come down and look at them and make sure they are ok to mount on the tire because once they do they are yours. I get down there only to find BMF Novakanes So my wheel guy gets on the phone with BMF and basically was told if I still want the Rehabs I've got another few months. ( I had been getting that run around since I saw them at 2011 sema) So My guy says if I keep the Novakanes He will make me an offer I couldn't refuse. So I did and am actually glad I did after seeing the Rehabs in person even though they were 8 lug . Here's a list of mods so far

-2012 F150 FX4 Ecoboost Supercrew 3.73 157" wheelbase

-Camburg performance kit 2.5 FOX coilovers up front with uniball upper control arms, and FOX piggyback rear shox

-Custom arched Deaver leaf springs set

-LED conversion inside and out on every bulb except puddle

-6000k HID's Heads and Fogs

-35x12.50r20 TOYO MTs

-20x9 BMF Novakane Wheels 5" backspacing 0 offset

-Thule M.O.A.B. Basket and Traverse foot pack and load bars

-Red/black FORD overlays

-SCT Tuner with 5 Star tunes for when I tow and MPT tunes when I play

-AFE Stage 2 Intake with oiless filters

-Straight pipe exhaust 4" from muffler back

- Custom "RBP Edition" badges from steve at Billetbadges

-RBP RX series grille

-RBP license plate frames

-RBP 5" exhaust tip

-RBP Hitch cover

-custom mde lower bumper grille

-Ford rear wheel well liners

MODS TO COME:::::

-50" RIGID LED light bar mounted on THULE Basket

-Either a road armor bumper or ADD bumper

-Either Fiberwerx fenders or bushwacker flares not sure yet heard some bad things about Fiberwerx

-RPG stage 2 rear kit minus the leafs.

-Amp steps

-Stainlessworks Turboback exhaust

-Whenever I get time I need to mount my actuall train horn setup from my old truck that consists of Nathan airchimes K5LA, 3/4" airline, two Viair 200 PSI compressors, Parker regulators, 15 galon Firestone airtank, all wired into my stock horn onto a toggle switch so I can switch back and forth.

That was the only thing that bugged me about my 04. I plan on going a different route with this one. I loved the look of my old one and even being 7 years old it still turned more heads than any other truck in my town but it was killing me on gas and was a pain maneuvering around town and on long trips. And as you know when trucks are lifted that high no matter how much money you put into them they still demand more whether it's for tie rods, wheel bearings, blah blah blah. You've got to pay to play I know. So anyways I decided to keep this one lower and go with the camburg performance suspension kit. That way I will still have that awesome factory ride if not better and still clear 35's. And it will be a machine off-road! It's also gonna be rocking a black and white theme with almost all RBP products. I'm typing on my phone so when I get home tonight I'll add pictures of my old truck and pictures of all the mods going on the new one! So here's s list of mods I'm going to be using. Some already purchased, some not yet.
--Camburg performance kit with deaver rear mini pack.
--Fiberwerx fenders front and rear
--35x12.50r20 Toyo MT
--BMF REHAB wheels 20x9 (not even out yet)
--Full LED conversion in and out
--RBP 4x5x12 black exhaust tip
--RBP Rx series grill black
--RBP Black Hitch cover
--RBP license plate frame/matches grill
--RBP RX 3 Nerf bars
--heartthrob 4 inch exhaust
--Roush or injen intake not sure yet
--xetronic 8000k 55watt HID heads/fogs
--Custom made badges from Steve at "billet badges" that say RBP Twin turbo ecoboost edition.

I'll use this thread to update my progress as soon as I get the truck so keep checking in!
Hi Nick,
let me say I have enjoyed this Thread!! hada few laughs along the way!
between you and Bisonium, too funny. I like the products your bought.
You almost have me convinsed to buy the Camburg set up, I already put Procomp 3" leveling kit, and yes the angle of the ball joints bother me but it won't get many miles a yr on it because of the 3 other vehicles we have. .........I think next summer I plan to get the Camburg, what kind of price for that set up you have....I love they way mine rides handles with the Pro Comp 3"....... I did a **** load of Accessories, which are listed at the bottom of my Post. or in my Garage with pics.....


I too had hard time choosing color , Ive owned alot of Black Vehicles and still have 2 that are black, my supercharged GTP Grand Prix and the Wife's FX4 Scab......I was going between Blue/white/Gray
Ive never had gray and I liked the way it sparkled.lol. with the chrome, so it won out! it was a sunny day!....lol
I wanted chrome accents this time around...I did a few white trucks and they look sharp with the right amount of black and chrome on them....

I bought a sterling gray - 2012 XLT-XTR(chrome pkg) Screw 5.0, 145"
I built my truck up, adding Katzkin leather and heat, Webastco Moon Roof, Blue ambient LED lighting....Im done for now, last i have to do is the Exhaust and im going with Solo Performance duals - dual tips and out the left & right side, and Im going to 35" BFG KM2's & RBP 94R Chromies for my summer camping tires... I have BFG Rugged Terrian T/A's 275/65/20-34.1" winter rain tires Vancouver, BC..lol........Today i just purchased all my Stereo Equipment, Alpine X Power 5 Channel MRX-V70, 2 pair of Infifnty 6x8" 8602'cfx, MTX 12" sub & custom fibreglass Box, Dynamat , next is the install......lol

Your truck looks great, lot of nice trucks in this thread!!

Cheers - Grant
