I wouldnt go any bigger than 35's with an IFS system. I would only go with 37's with a front live axle for strength.

I disagree. Take a good look at the front knuckles on the lift kits. The a-arms are plenty strong and the much beefier knuckles are overkill for 35s, atleast in my kit. I would not put 35s or 37s (if they would fit) on a truck with only a leveler kit though...

My gosh dude...that looks sick! I got an 09 I'm planning on 6"-ing soon. Only problem is that Igot some 17" wheels with 35s. lol Bad move on my part. But I'll just sell those and my stock set and get a new set of 18s. Thanks for the preview man! Badass truck!!

Thanks for the compliments guys. The BDS kit is a great kit in my opinion and I have been very happy with it.

BDS is the way to go.. Lifetime warranty even if you break it yourself they'll send out replacement parts you can't beat that deal.. And it keeps everything up snug and tight to the truck which is what you want

Ive been looking around and cannot find any problems with the BDS 6'' lift but when i bought my 2009 f150 Lariet it had a 6'' lift with 35'' tires. When moving over a bump or a defect on the road the front end feels like its shaking and my steering wheel shakes bad also. Do any of yalls trucks ride like this or like factory?
