Mine is a dual purpose rig n I went with 4.56 because if u do any offroading you will want them cuz 4.10 feel kinda sluggish with 35s shop I've been told

painted right over the lights. remeber to spray light coats. the more layers you spray the easier it is to remove in one piece. instead of picking at thiner layers. stuff last awhile i had it on my old saab through the winter and summer. we will see how long it last on a f150

dirty under the hood. but some engine degreaser should do the trick. thats on tomorrows list if weather is on my side

tell me if you like it black . does it look better?

switching up the build a bit.


i want to lower it now. it will be much cheaper and i want a lower truck now.

i saw my cousins harley f150 and i want it to be the same height.

what do i need to do to accomplish that?

3" front 4" rear?

could i crank t bars but loose? to lower front? how about the rear?
