Thanks lads. I'm trying to get some definitive answers on overall height after a 4" lift with 33" tires to see if it will fit in my garage still. Lots of mixed info.

I don't follow the trucks as closely as mustang but I use what Greg suggests & this gets more traffic.. although maybe bit less of tech https://www.f150forum.com/

Thanks guys.

Watch out my "build" is gettin' crazy! I should have done this immediately instead of always holding the door in a middle position. The full open pic is actually not fully open, close to it, but touching the wall. I think the 2015's have the 3 position factory stock.

I signed up over at f150forum and talked to Sinner some yesterday.

Cleaned it up Thursday, got matching tint on the sides, and 50% on windshield. Also first pic I've taken with the bed cover.

So how is this Mod done? The one thing I hate about my 13.
Even Chevy got this right!

Not sure if anyone is local enough to be interested, but I am beginning to modify some of our F-150 inventory and have take off suspension parts and wheels/tires. If anyone is interested, I can keep this thread updated. Right now I have a 20" XL Sport Package wheels with Hankook tires and should have a set of 18" with Goodyears coming off this upcoming week. They are complete sets with TPMS.

Awkward to install, and seems stupid to have to but I should have done it right after buying. Maybe now illl get tailgate damper too, haha

^ Can't you just use a Dremel and cut a new detent in the arm without removing it?

It's obvious FoMoCo realized it too considering the NBS has 3 detents. I have them on my truck as well and would recommend them. Northlight Labs is good people, too.

I think that's where this "mod" started, hard to see in pics but the left is the new one and that extra detent I think is inside the hinge. Edit and at least when you buy these they start with brand new hinges

Looks great!

So I just joined this group, 2015 F150 Lariat with a 3.5L Ecoboost. My question is what can I do for modifications without hurting what is left of the warranty? I noticed I need to replace the air filter, and would prefer to upgrade the intake rather than buy a replacement. Thanks in advance, pictures coming soon!

UPR CC and FMIC are a must have; the amount of gunk that gets sent back into the engine is disgusting; the stock FMIC is adequate at best and gets heat soaked quickly which pulls timing which kills power.

A tune wakes the truck up, with the tune 93 octane is required and a one heat range colder set of plugs is recommended; they are super easy to change.

I installed a 170 tsat as numerous tuners can take advantage of lower ECT's with the tune.

A CAI is a nice to have, I put one on, you hear the turbo's more but don't expect a huge increase in power; if you want to hear the turbo's more you can remove the silencers.

Ya, I was planning on the CC and I didn't figure I would get anything too crazy out of the CAI, but if I am going to buy one I figured now is the time. Thanks for all the info. Would you need the colder plugs with a 91 tune? There isn't as much 93 around me if I travel. Any FMIC that are recommended over others? Is there any benefit of the RX CC over the UPR CC?

Greg Hazlett · Apr 22, 2017

I prefer the UPR CC and I think-could be wrong-RX does not make one for the 15+; I recommend the one heat range colder plugs with any tune, cheap insurance.

Levels Racing/Performance makes a nice FMIC, it was not ready when I bought mine; I have the AFE which I have had no issues with.
