I work at a ford dealer and this 5.0 trucks do NOT last long with the whipples. Even with the warranty it sucks having to wait for a new engine because the whipple blew the motor. And the 5.0s are on back order.
@@FastLainePerformancehow many of the blown motors are from people just beating the piss out of them all the time? Heard stories too where people never had issues.
I would have hoped to had seen more of the rear end suspension flip conversion. But it is what it is. I do appreciate that you are doing everything yourself. I really enjoy your content. I’m getting my 2024 in mid November
Hell yeah! I went with VAS 3/5 with shock relocation kit, traction bars, adjustable UCA’s, Viking double adjustable coilovers up front & Viking adjustable shocks in the rear on my 2023 F150 RCSB
How comfortable is the ride been looking at the vas because is cheaper than the ride tech but I’m willing to spend the extra money if the the vas isn’t that comfortable or close to stock
@@justind9631 lowered 4x4s make sense if they're gonna make big power like this one is. It's a drag truck, you'd have to be insane to want to run 140 in a lifted truck. And by the way, they don't make all terrains that'll handle those speeds 🤣.
Not sure if people are hating or just speaking their mind but either way yes it was nice to see it leveled but the plan from the beginning was lowered fast🤷♂️
MAN, it’s gotta be SOOO nice to wrench on a brand new truck. 🥳 I just lowered my 2003 F-150 that’s lived in Michigan it’s entire life, and did full brake job front and rear recently and DAMN what a pain in the @$$ it is to work on rusty old trucks. Made the jobs take 2-3 times the amount of time to do than it should have just because of wrestling with rusty/seized bolts and whatnot. Love the videos-thanks for sharing. 💯
You make this seem so simple . It hasn’t been so at all for me. I ran into an issue where the Bottom u-bolt plate on the driver side would not line up with the holes at the bottom . Other side slid right on .
Dang. That truck was literally perfect before you lowered it. It was the best set up for the single cab. Those wheels and tires were made for that truck 👌🏼
Keep up the good work man, Pretty impressive you do all this ur self. Also even with the whipple I still think the dmax will take the W 😂 we shall see.
since it's lifted already woulda ya consider doing performance mods as is ... test it and show whats the difference between the 2 directions ... p.s. Ty for taking the time to share it's progress, like where the truck is and can't wait to see what ya do with it
Man, please put some Weld racing wheels on it with a good meaty street tire out back. I know everyone and their momma has that setup but it’s hard to beat.
@@cody6.6max your gonna have to jog my memory a bit. What other lowered vehicle does he have? But I agree on the other stuff been waiting for some dmax content for months
I’m not taking about his fleet or past builds I meant that it was nice to see a new single cab leveled on UA-cam since now in days the majority of this single cab builds are nothing but lowered trucks on drag radials…

I can’t believe someone would make a kit like this that requires you to drill out your factory steering knuckle. Why on earth couldn’t they use the stock size ball joint?!?
I thought he was going to do the rear first and have the front the same with the leveling kit and it was going to be mad squatted but surprisingly he didn’t.
Truck looked so good as it was leveled with the wheels and tires was almost perfect!!!!everyone already has the lowered 5.0 it’s nothing different…😢…I was in love with the leveled look
Well.... That is different i will have to wait and see with new rims and tires, rims should be gold or copper (brass) a tune up not a fan of turbos that is for people with deep pockets , you can tell i dont have pockets that deep, and i like to see stock beat souped up
I used to think that too but these trucks are beating everything. The 4wd combined with the 10 speed and the 5.0 coyote is what makes these things so damn fast. These things are beating AWD Honda's , GTRs and Audi R8s
That poor truck is screaming "he cut my testicles off" I'm no longer a real truck. Four wheel drive has been rendered useless now. You should have bought a 2WD if your looking to slam things or maybe a Civic.
No it's not. Have you seen what these lowered 4wd 5.0 trucks can do? These things are crazy fast and they been beating everything on the street. You should watch Cletus AWD shootout. 4wd is what makes these trucks so damn fast. Its pretty much a AWD Mustang GT
i can’t wait for the whipple supercharger for this truck

It’s a pretty truck but lifted with those chrome rims it looks beautiful! Great looking truck man
Yessir can’t wait for you to do some engine performance mods.
I’m usually on board with whatever. But I didn’t agree with this.
You make this seem so simple . It hasn’t been so at all for me. I ran into an issue where the Bottom u-bolt plate on the driver side would not line up with the holes at the bottom . Other side slid right on .
Now the truck looks so much better 😎 can’t wait till it’ll be fast
Dang. That truck was literally perfect before you lowered it. It was the best set up for the single cab. Those wheels and tires were made for that truck 👌🏼
I think so to but hopefully he’s got some good ideas for it
Looks a hell of a lot better
I’m cool with lowering 4wd but please take the 4x4 stickers off looks goofy with those lol
Do any other bolts go onto of the u-bolt brackets other than the u-bolts ? Like the 2 holes in between the ubolts?
Ultimate sleeper; beautiful.
Hey man been here since 9k subs, subbed at 92 and just wanted to say keep up the good work
Looks a lot better. How much was that kit, and do you think a 4/6 would be too low. Another question, how close to a factory ride did that kit get?
looks waaaaay better now 🔥🔥👌🏻
Keep up the good work man, Pretty impressive you do all this ur self. Also even with the whipple I still think the dmax will take the W 😂 we shall see.
Doubt it. These 4x4 single cabs are light and crazy fast. Have you seen Cletus AWD shootout? These 10 speeds shift crazy fast too
What is the wheel size tire combo before the lowering kit?
Hurt to see shorty lifted 😢 gotta keep this one dropped looks too good 🔥
Keep up the good work 👍.
Giving me S10 vibes
Gotta do some weld wheels
does truck feel floaty in the front after a hard acceleration and letting off? I believe it is due to the factory shock and spring
Love all the details good job
Gotta put the black wheels you reveled to us on shorty in a past video!! Those would look SICK!🔥🔥
Love how it’s a tubular arm set up to shed some weight 😊
Love the vids. Keep up the good work
Which lowering kit did you use?
What’s the exhaust setup?
Fox shocks for a lowered truck application helped my IHC kit a lot. Takes some of the stiffness out of it.
What brand is the impact gun
Does this mean 24s on Larry 👀😂
Any squeaking after lowering it?
Hell yeah super excited for this
since it's lifted already woulda ya consider doing performance mods as is ... test it and show whats the difference between the 2 directions ... p.s. Ty for taking the time to share it's progress, like where the truck is and can't wait to see what ya do with it
Any complaints with this choice lowering kit vs ridetech? I am in the process and want to make the right choice. Same truck /nj
What did you end up going with?
Ridetech 3/5
MUCH better!
Man, please put some Weld racing wheels on it with a good meaty street tire out back. I know everyone and their momma has that setup but it’s hard to beat.
305 or 315s on the 24s for cheat code and buy some 24s for chomper to re use the glads?
Now it needs a drag pack, weight reduction, FBO and a good tune!
We need some new chomper footage we need a turbo on chomper
Gotta like and comment on every video so you can get dat whipple
Going low like all the other single cabs in YT and social media 🤦🏽♂️ it was nice to see a leveled truck
He literally has soooo many other trucks and variations and I would argue he has the most diverse fleet out there
@@LupeSmasherhe’s lower all his stuff . Hasn’t touched the Duramax in a year and the black truck he changed wheels for content other that that’s it

Go buy one and build it the way you want it if it’s that big of a deal
How much $ for the old wheels and leveling kit that you took off?
Just replaced the front end on my truck and man how nice it must be to live down south. I live in Missouri and the rust here is terrible 🤦🏽♂️
I’m in Missouri too, I feel your pain! 😫🤷🏼♂️🤣

Put some street tires on the 24s and throw them on it would look so good
sits PERFECT
Looks sick!
So much better! I love me a lowered single cab truck
Torque specs? Never heard of them…
Needs boost and some long tubes with an x pipe
We need a crew cab back😭
Great Video!
We need more offroad vids
The whipple ain’t out yet?
I’ve been waiting for this im about to drop my 2018 Silverado on 22s
Where the duramax and Larry at?? Need more content on them
This solidified my next vehicle choice
Great video and I'm also sure that every bolt you said was standard size was actually metric. 21mm not 13/16 and 13mm not 1/2.
I can’t believe someone would make a kit like this that requires you to drill out your factory steering knuckle. Why on earth couldn’t they use the stock size ball joint?!?
So much better
Bed exit exhaust????
Not gonna lie, I cringed when you hit those threaded studs with the hammer. Great video, enjoying the build.

Still support the channel just sad to not see anymore off road f150 videos
No don't lower it. I like it lifted some.
Time for side exit exhaust and lose the mudflaps and the antenna
Gotta de badge it
Welds now
Hell nah. Left it back up
Looks good but the stock runs are a no go 😂 makes it look ugly
Wow 🤩😎💯👌👌
Yessirrr🔥
needs a sport sticker or the sport 4x4
Bed cover and a black roof asap
Noooo 😭now it’s the same as every other f150 on UA-cam
Never will be clean like a chevy/gmc lowered or lifted gm will always look better
