My old 2004 Dodge Ram 3500 had 3" wide rear leaf springs......I measured the F150 today, and also found the same 3" width
Onto the Timbren install.........I have 2" gap from the bottom of the Timbren to the top of the axle tube
Total install was 30 minutes and total Timbren cost is about $135
Drop brackets:
Installed with the optional spacer, which I used since I have 3" tall rear blocks

I decided to try out this AFE Silver Bullet TB Spacer today
http://afepower.com/afe-power-46-330...le-body-spacer
For $40, why not...........took 20 minutes to install and it was a very easy 20 minutes at that
No noise increase..........I will give it 2-3 week and see how it does
I have an AFE Bladerunner Charge Pipe also waiting to be installed, after the TB spacer is ran for a while

Onto some quick pics

Tired of getting the LONG antenna caught on everything, I looked for solutions
Stubby worked good and fit good...........easy 5 min swap
I use Sirius anyways for all my radio needs, but I will report back on how the AM/FM reception is

I bought an auto zone knock off of the stubby antenna and it was terrible. I could not get a clear channel anywhere. If that one works well I might have to try one.

Reception is decent, at best...........Maybe the 3" version was too short. I think there's a 6" version
Who knows
It serves it purpose and I don't need it to work well, since I have Sirius

This truck hauls, plain and simple
With the CAI and TB spacer........I can hit 90 without noticing
So much smoother and pulls harder
Hopefully next weekend I can throw on the AFE Bladerunner Charge Pipe
I think the previous (leased) owner added a cat-back exhaust
A section of pipe before the muffler, the muffler, and the tailpipe are not rusting and the upstream area of the exhaust has rust
I know its not stainless, but the aluminized color is noticeably different.........I will snap some pics to see what everything thinks.........Stock or not
