Speaking of mods, in a previous post it was stated that the dream beams narrow the front end. Is that still the case and if so will I need to modify anything other than possibly the the tie rods?

just the rods nothing else.

Plan on running 22s or 24s and towing about a 400lb tongue weight camper.

Will Add a Leaf kit work? or would i need Helper Bags and if so, would i need custom mounts for bags, or do they have a kit that bolts right up?

Thanks
airlift helper bags go right in.

djm arms
rear belltech flip
rear belltech shocks
850 shipped

before i set up final kits i always have the customer measure from ground to fenderlip. You might need a 3/4 kit due to the different leafs/springs ford used on these trucks

Since I know what I'm getting myself into now, go ahead and figure a price for me.

No grinding out the mounts with this set up? Really don’t want to do that.

Default Lowering

I have a 2014
f150 Screw 6.5' bed
ive always been a lifted truck guy. Had a 6" rough country lift on my last truck, but I have 2 kids now and was looking at something adjustable for lowering so it's easier for the wife and kids to get out. I was thinking about the belltech air jack but I honestly have no clue what to get really. I want it to be adjustable so I can also go on the farm. Thanks for the help. Not looking to spend over 1k
