Finally, after the SCT X4 crashed during uploading of Custom Tunes, (had to send it in to them) and 4 weeks later we got it back. Installed a 92 Perfomance/Tow tune yesterday. Wow what a difference. The X4 unleashed a beast! A lot more fun to drive now. Throttle response is much more crisp and turbo lag seems to be minimized. You certainly can hear the blow off valve now! Thanks to Stage 3 for hooking us up with the tuner.

What happened with the tuner? I bought mine from Franchi then sold it to a buddy at work for his 2011 eco. (Didn't want to void my warranty from the service ****'s at my dealership Lol). Was it just a freak occurrence?

^ Really have no clue what happened. We are Mac here at F50Lifts so went over to a friends to load with a PC, X4 not Mac friendly. During uploading X4 lunched itself. Tech support from SCT got on with us remotely but failed to fix it and said it needs to be sent in. So, in it went, took them 4 weeks and communication was terrible as to what was going on. But in the end it came back and we like the tune!

That's good. Maybe it was just a freak occurence. I haven't heard about any other doing this. My buddy said his loaded just fine after it finally updated itself. Lol. Glad it's working fine now.

Truck looks amazing Alex! Love how it turned out. The Toyos, Dropstars and ADD Venom really set the truck off. Love it.

I have an f150 with a 2.5 as level and am running 305/55/20's. I love the stance of this truck. It's really making me want to run a coilover for the .5". Can you tell me how much lift there was on the rear if any? Also, I know that original truck goes back a while, but do you have the measurement on the front? I'd like to know the number difference if I'm going to pull the trigger. Thanks in advance. Looks like you've got a really top notch company there.

Bistein went into their backordered status and we produced and moved into the New Boss Coilovers. We added an NFab light bar and the cool PIAA lights and 305-55-20 Duratracs to our stock FX4 wheels, of course had to have the Icon UCA's. Now it's time to re do the F150Lifts truck. This was brought on by our sister company Toytec Lifts, that just built up their new 2014 Tundra for SEMA 2014 (this coming week) The F150Lifts Boss Coilovers can be seen in the ToyTec Lifts booth #36125, thank you to Toytec Lifts for showing our F150Lifts Boss Coilovers! So the plan is to get F150Lifts and our F150Lifts truck to SEMA 2016. So we have a year to get the truck how we want it.

We have already got an Addicted Desert Design front bumper being made, we have received from SOLO Performance Exhaust their Mach-X-Eco-Dual cat back exhaust which we will try to install next week. The SOLO Performance exhaust sure looks sweet and we thank Solo for teaming with us for our SEMA build! An all New Graphic package from AFM Graphics is in the works as we speak. New 18x9 customs wheels, new 35x12.50 tires. Firestone AirBags went in last week. Our Raptor Style rear block coming soon. Lots of plans. We will post the pics here as we make over the F150Lifts truck.
