Did you have any issues with your camber/caster once everything was done? I noticed my camber is off. Thinking of getting the Moog camber adjustable bolt kit. I want it to run straight with winter coming. Lessons learned after...
Thank you very much! I have the same 20in wheels and 35in tires with 1.5 spacers, on my 2012 EXPY MAX, with 3.5/ 2.5 level kit, Everyone on the web said it wouldn't fit,even the folks on Ford Forum said you can't make it fit, well you and I are proof of what you can accomplish when you don't take NO for an answer. Thanks again!
You're right about wheel spacers being perfectly safe although loctite is your friend there. It aggravates me too when people start a rant about them. The only thing spacers or negative offset rims will do is throw off your scrub radius, but if you don't care than go for it.
Leveled my truck, installed and aligned for 350 including parts and labor, lowballed some dude on Facebook to get pretty much brand new (500 or so miles on his new raptor) takeoffs. So I got a leveled f150 with 35's for 950. It's possible
when i worked at 4 wheel parts, we did some border patrol trucks. 35s with new wheels with a little more offset and zero lift. trimmed the front plastic and rear plastic. also took off the inner fender and had to cut the pinch seem in 2 inch sections and bend it over. no rub no steering issues.
Had experience with the lift you used, the thing that happens is stress on the upper ball joints and they will go bad in no time because of the angle. A good kit will have new control arms to compensate for that angle. Nice video, good job taking the time to explain things.
Whoa.. at 17:09- did you just say “it looks like it’ll go out there and do some SHIT”!?!? First 4 letter word I recall hearing on TFS! You must really be excited about this build!!
I put 3.5in leveling struts with new upper control arms that correct upper ball joint angle, and installed 4in block in the back. looks great, you'd swear it had a 4in lift all the way around. NOW, the down side to it. the front axles were on a horrible bind going over small obstacles, rocks, bumps in the road, speedbumps. it wore out my front axle support bushings, my inner axle bearing on the passenger side, ruined my 4x4 actuators, and passengers side hub bearing in 8 months. I'm installing a real 6inch lift now with front and rear cross members and diff drop brackets to return everything to factory geometry, I would not recommend a leveling kit beyond 2-2.5 inches. just don't do it.
I purchased my 12 f150 already lifted. Block in the back. I can't tell how the front is lifted but my upper control arms are pointing like to 7:00. Not sure what angle that is. I know that's supposed to be level. I can't see any spacers. But the truck rides like crap that's for sure. Bumps go through the entire truck. Not to mention brand new set of 305s ATs I put on a year ago now have the diagonal warps in them. Tires are so dam loud slapping the pavement. My plan is to put the real 6" lift as well to hopefully get a better ride and I'm pretty sure all factory shocks were left when lifted which to me puts the shock extended all the time which I'm thinking is not how it was designed which may also cause the ruff ride. My has factory fender flares so I'm pretty sure this was all dealer done but def not the right way.
I think you’re right. I think most people don’t do that because they don’t have enough jacks and they are just doing one corner at a time in their driveway. In his case I believe he could have just switched them.
Great video. I never worried about regular wheels blowing apart during tire changes. Split rims will get you hurt, they have cages for them, we use to put them under a arm of a lift back in the day. Showing my age as well.
So I should only need 1.5” wheel spacers on a bone stock 2013 4x4 F150 eco to run 33x12.5 on factory 18” rims? Would I need to add the spacers on the back tires as well?
Truck looks super cool . I did 2 inch leveling kit on the front of my wife’s 2015 F 150 4x4 Sport lariat and the axles seem to be at an odd angle is that OK?
big O blows, i use peerless in my town for work, i buy my tires from Discount. I'm running a RC 2.5 leveling strut in front and 1 inch block in back on 1552 00 offset wheels with bfg 315/70/17 and 1.5 centric wheel spacer. NO RUBBING! I see you ran wheeler pass... been a while since i been to Vegas. I'd love to roll that pass with someone next time im in Vegas with my truck.
I own a 2009 SCREW, 5.4 3V with a 3" RC lift/ level, slight rub on turn/bump mix.... Running stock 20s with a slightly over stock Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT. Very comfy but stout ride.
I don't get the rotation of the shock . Like he said, the top will only line up one way. The bottom rod will rotate as required once it's tightened into place, so what am I missing? Help!
So you were saying that as long as you run a hun centric wheel spacer you will be good does it matter what size of one you run I always thought 2in was ok but what if you run a 3 just wondering though. Thanks
Good I'm 14 and my dad told me he would give me his 2014 f150. I'm excited. But I really wanted to lift it and off set it. But its expensive. This is good they have things like this.
16:44 adds up to 985.38 and you didn't count your time your time is worth something. Also no need to spin the hat. Also, loosen upper and lower control arms slightly makes it a ton easier and faster in the end. May want to clarify that you're taking the brake line and speed sensor wires loose from the knuckle not actually taking it off the caliper. Also, tighten wheel nuts in a Criss-Cross pattern to prevent warping brake rotors (yes I know you trust your gun but if you're going to be an example you should use best practices. Torque wrenches save lives from weak batteries and DIYers cheap impact guns)
Was all set to do the exact same one for same truck and go to open package and dont even have the right screws 😩 wouldn’t know what size they are by chance?
I haven't done tires since 1994, no Dubs, no Donks no TP monitors. But Pep Boys (where I worked) had tire cages and we were required (yeah right!) to use them. Lug Torque was required and we had to record that and the TP on the work order. And I'm not taking my F150 off-road. If I'm in the dirt it ain't on purpose! 😂 I have 4WD/A4WD but it's a Platinum.

I just did this on my 2019 but I bought used raptor take offs. Bought cheap 2.25 level I think from Amazon. Had the installation done with alignment at offroad warehouse. Turned off tpms and adjusted Speedo with superchips calibrator. All under $1k. I cheated getting used wheels/tires on offer up for only $450 and no tpms. I have since downsized to 33s because I still tow a 7,000 pound travel trailer and I dont have the funding to support regearing a 4x4 with IFS. but it's not ruled out for the future because DAMN 35s look good...
1 1/2 " in the rear and 3 1/2" in the front end @ 18:55.. Is that the total over all height that You got with the tires? The reason I ask? You said you used a 2" leveling kit. I have Confusion on the wheel spacers... I have been told 33" tire will rub with a 2" kit. Do you get enough clearance with 35" tires?
2013 used a differnt style shock. 2014s started using the same as the 15 as ford was already converting machines in plants for production- actual quote when I called ford asking why the hell my shit was different
Hahahaha. "bluetooth drive shafts!" Fucking love it! I'm a Tundra lover, but who cares you're okay in my book. You earned your subscribe from me, thanks bro!
I think you picked the wrong Big O store. In Salt Lake my Big O would have charged the same price. But if I noticed that the steering wheel wasn’t straight, I would have taken it back. They would say “oh I’m sorry, give me 5 minutes and I’ll fix it for you”. Maybe you could factor in the round trip fuel costs and come on over to SLC. ; > )
Dude, loved the video but for one thing. You would never catch me buying Suretrac tires. I lived in China for 7 years, and one thing I have come to understand from this is that, even the Chinese people don't want tires made by Chinese people.
JAI CHA yup I’m running 35x12.5 r18 bfg at ko2 that cost me about the same. But I have them on m tundra with about 15k miles and they still have the nubs on the ends of the treads!
I went with raptor take offs I found on offer up for $450. I took off the 35s and sold them, used the money to get a set of 33 bfg ko2 with more meat also used. I came in under $1k even with paying 450 for installation of the level and alignment.
I wonder why this isn't common knowledge. :) I've seen people take these to a shop because they thought they had to compress the spring and spin it. lol
I bought the bilstein 2" lift 5100 struts & shocks for $380 and could of stayed there but the wheel spacers I removed destroyed the top hats so $60=x2 for top hats at AutoZone and decided not to mess with the old springs so bought new HD springs $90=set amazon then rented a spring compressor tool and bent it so called around and found a place to compress the springs and put them together for $60 total so 380+120+90+60=$650 total I did the install

It was actually closer to 17:07 or so
But yes - a four letter word slipped past the sensors on this one and I actually said that 🤣
cool project, cool trail!
You can just rotate that bar with the studs eh. Takes like 30 seconds and a vice
Looks sweet!! The newer Ford wheels look great on your truck :)
Lol that was dope? I like this guy, he's funny! 😂
awesome 👏

What was the turn radius before and after? Any cutting that you had to do? Awesome video. Thanks.
The real takeaway from this is that.. I need a huge pry bar.
Did you do anything to back?since you added the leveling kit in the front ?? Do the 35s rub is the front?
normally, how much is the labor cost for installing the leveling kit?
Hi, did you have to adjust your headlights do to leveling the truck?
“No cheating” borrows a whole azz shop lol
What’s the width of the rims?
Can 35x12.5 or 33x12.5 tires fit on my factory 18x7.5 wheels?
Well Leon... let the learning begin... just got my FM9 last week... I still love my AX8 (I use a few of your patches live)
Awesome setup. Was there any rubbing after all said and done?
Threw the old tire off that snap on toolbox !!😈
Could you not just use the passenger strut on the driver side since they would inherently be 180 out from each other?
I think you’re right. I think most people don’t do that because they don’t have enough jacks and they are just doing one corner at a time in their driveway. In his case I believe he could have just switched them.
Great video. I never worried about regular wheels blowing apart during tire changes. Split rims will get you hurt, they have cages for them, we use to put them under a arm of a lift back in the day. Showing my age as well.
I done a few at home with my dad growing up we always put them under the frame of the truck when seating beads
Could you put those tires on without the spacers or would the rubbing become to bad?
00whitekid you can’t get full turn radius without spacers on stock rims.
What exhaust do you got or how do you get your turbos to spook like that

No need to rotate top. Just drop in the 2 lower holes and push or pull it. That bottom shaft will easily move where you need it.

Could the tires fit without the wheel spacers?
I can get free alignments...brother works at a tire/lube shop :D Normally their alignments run $75 I just buy him lunch xD
Do I need to gear up for that size of tire and these mods on a 2017 F150 STX 4x4 5.0 set to 3.73:1?
Most likely you won't, especially being a 4wd that will get expensive... It also depends on what ratio your truck has now...
Did you lower tire pressure for going up the hill?
Bashing one's head is my trick.
At full lock do the tires rub turning left or right? Any modifications needed to the bumper?
One side touches the plastic lip. Just had to trim a tiny bit.
They charged you over $100 for a "cheap' alignment and the wheel is still crooked? Dude you got screwed.
Yeah...centering the steering wheel should always be done then...
Yeah, around here cheap is $50 and $85 is most you can pay.
Its just a toe adjustment anyway, I don't there is adjustability for castor or camber on the F150.

How much are they rubbing on turns, especially backing up? I have 33's on 18" rims with leveling spacers and they rub in the turns
I have 33s on my 20” stock 2013 fx4 rims. No level or anything. No rubs going forward or backwards

price went up on the tires its 971 for 4 now (2/23), Nice king Ranch wheels!
Didn't get any spring slap from uppers?
You dont need to compress spring
Just turn the rubber that holds the bottom studs
Yup just need to turn it like 15 degrees to the other side
Any rubbing ?? Any trimming ??
Swap the struts side to side after installing the spacer you don’t have to rotate the hat the studs will align
I wonder why this isn't common knowledge. :) I've seen people take these to a shop because they thought they had to compress the spring and spin it. lol
Please explain?
Isaiah Oveal just take it from one side and put on the other , or take a pry bar between the studs and just spin the upper strut mount
