Default Hey everyone

First post

I have a 2005 F-150 FX4. I was thinking on getting a 2.5 inch leveling kit and a 3 inch body lift to raise it up a bit, and add 35 inch tires and 20 or 22 inch rockstar rims. Can someone give me a pic of what a 2004 FX4 looks like with a 2.5 inch leveling kit and a 3 inch body lift with 35 inch tires?? Thanks

If you dont mind me asking, how much was it for you to do your body lift and leveling kit? Did you do it yourself? Does it sit as high as a 6 inch lift if it had 35's? And your truck is gorgeous that is pretty much how high I wanted mine to sit up but with 22 inch rockstar rims I think.
