Default 2017 F150 STX Build

Hey guys finally getting around to posting some pictures of my “build”, got the truck new in Oct 2017 and started adding things little by little. Here is what’s done so far. I will be posting mostly in small parts as I buy them, since I’m a freshman in college and save in order to buy my parts and don’t buy them all at once.

Upgrades
-5% All around including sun strip and 30% on full windshield
-Swapped the matte door trim pieces to the gloss black with keypad
-PTM door handles
-3” Front Level
-3” Rear Blocks
-Tinted taillights
-22x12 -44 XD surge on 33”
-Resonator Delete

Correct. Thinking of moving up to 35/13.50r22 or to 355/40r22 to have some more tire sidewall. Haven’t decided.

I ran 22x12s with 325/50r22 (35x13) with the Maxtrac and had to trim a bunch. I dont even want to know how much more the 14s wides are going to need with a 35"

Love this wheel. I’m in the market myself. How is the ride and how big of a hit did you take on mpg? Truck looks sick !

Sorry for the late response. Suspension is ok, has enough travel for the UCAs to not hit. Definitely rides better then a 3” Level. Planning on removing it and going with either RC 6” or BDS” with Vertex coilovers to gain so more height. Want to run 24x14 on 35s. MPG is around 14.5 which is mostly city driving, and I have a heavy foot. It’s been so long since I had stock wheels that I don’t remember what I was averaging. I’d say I lost around 2 MPG if I had to guess. Worth it though

No worries on the late reply man, I’ve been up with my baby since 4:45 AM and have work all day afterwards. I know it’s not easy to find time.

Crazy you say that because I ended up going with a 6 inch BDS lift with the fox call overs and shocks. I have not had time to put it on yet, but I will let you know how it rides and when I do. I ended up spending many hours replacing my blend door actuator and now I have to do it one more time so that’s been putting off the lift . 2 MPG loss is nothing and well worth it !
