I have Unleashed and Lund, not sure if Lund is doing the Edge's but Unleashed is good; heard good things about Brew City Boost.

Thanks for the info. Yeah I think that's exactly what happened. Guess I'll have to spend a couple days next week trying to fix it after I order the stuff.


Edit- went ahead and ordered that kit. I'll spend next Thursday fixing it. Luckily it's not raining over here although it's been about a month straight of over 100 degree weather

Shotokan1509 hooked you up with exactly the information I was going to post. That's by far the best information that you can get online about it. It's so crazy. Mine has been broken for a couple of months but I haven't really felt like fixing it as I've been way too busy.

My recommendation is to have another set of hands though. There is a way to shut it manually as well. I think if you read / watch that video you'll get that info.

Some quick pictures of another lifted truck package I put together. Thanks to those who chimed in about the Anzo products. The quality is really good.

Don't worry - the F150 fender badges are getting painted satin black as I type this.

Some bro is going to trade up to that rig, and you guys are going to make a killing off of him.

Those taillights are confusing. One photo is looks flush, the next photo, it is still doing that sticking out thing.

I've sold them to people on all spectrums. I don't put much mark up in the packages since I am competing with all the aftermarket companies that charge dealers ass loads for basic lift and wheels packages like this.

They stick out more than I'd like but the OEM taillights with BLIS stick out far as well.

That should sell like hotcakes, those were the wheels I considered if I didn't stay with my factory 20's

What are specs on that Cam? Lift/level/wheels/tires? Looks really good.

Thanks guys. I've done the lift packages with both 20's and 18's.

I always use BDS Suspensions for our retail truck packages because the warranty gives us as a dealer peace of mind to assist our customers if they have any issue.

These trucks have the following:

4" BDS Suspension Kit w/ Rear Fox Shock Upgrade
Fuel D552 'Trophy' 18x9" +1 Offset
Nitto Terra Grapplers 295/70/18 (they run big so they are technically bigger than BFG 35x12.5 which is classified as a 35")

I have a Lithium Gray F-150 that is getting outfitted this week and that will have the same wheels but black face with grey lip.

These may be the last ones I build for the 2017 F-150 body as 2018's are just around the corner. I do have a 2017 F-250 that will be getting outfitted though when it arrives.

Thanks Cam. Any issues with the crash bars with that setup?

That seems to be pretty common on the new ones unless you get into a 6" lift, from what I've read over on the F150 forums.

Does anyone know what the difference between the fuel system on the flex fuel trucks are vs the e0-15?

Finally have time to give it a try. About to tear it down and hopefully fix the issue with the kit I ordered. Wish me luck.

Got it all tore down and replaced the arms today. It was definitely a process doing it alone. Tons of screws, clips, and stuff holding everything together. Had to make two trips to the store, one for a bigger size torx bit for the seatbelt bolt, and one for a rivet hand gun that I didn't have. Quick trip to harbor freight and $5 later I had one and finished for today. Tomorrow I'm going to attempt to put everything back together without any left over parts haha. Of course, today ended with two broken tabs which is less than I thought I would break pulling all the damn pillars and headliner off the truck. Pretty scare looking at the interior the way it is right now. Hoping to get it all back together in an hour or two tomorrow.

If anyone is looking - I have 2 XLT sport grilles from take off trucks available for purchase. Will fit 2015-2017.

One is painted with a black surround and another is lithium grey. Less than 10 miles on each.

Example of the grilles.
