What do you mean by "running a lift to offset the preload"? Are you talking about adding a spacer on top of the coilover to add lift? I'm not about to stack parts like that. Other than adding preload to the Fox coilovers, a person could install longer or stiffer springs, but that's not something I know how to calculate. Maybe Fox would know what springs to use? Idk, but raising the collars in order to raise the front end was fairly easy. The front rides a little bit stiffer than when it was at Fox's pre-set height, but it is in no way stiff or harsh. It still rides a lot better than the stock FX4 shocks/springs. With the additional preload, the front closer matches the rear since the rear springs are still quite stiff. This setup rides great and I love it!
Great build and an amazing looking truck - makes me wish I would have got a white lariet!Ran through the car wash yesterday while it was sunny and snapped a few quick pics
Thank you!! To be completely honest, I almost went with the blue, and I really love the blue still, but the white platinum is just so good.
Thanks! These are the XL size.
Looked on Amazon for those lights, only found ones for Fusion and F150. Can you share part number or link?Added some nice LED puddle lights today. These are a super quick and easy upgrade from Amazon for like $17. Check the before and after pics, it is a huge difference and I don't really understand why they didn't use LEDs in the first place.
Pics ar as follows:
Stock puddle lights after being popped loose.
New puddle lights unboxed.
Stock puddle lights (left) vs new LEDs (right).
New LEDs connected and connectors heat shrinked.
Leds lit up in my shop with the lights off.

Sure thing. Here is the link to what I bought: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NYPLJ8C/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 They are the same as the F150.
Thanks. Stock lights are dim and yellow. Just looking for some black wheel nuts that have same contact surface as stock if you're in the know...
Hi...
I appreciate the help, and from all I've read of your posts, I respect your opinion. With that said, These might work doesn't seem like your typical response. I'm no engineer, so I'm relying on your expertise. Would you use these on your truck?
Hi .
Hi,
Throughout my years of being a car guy, I have yet to find black lug nuts that will last. I have had black powder coated lug nuts but those chip off and look like total crap after being removed and reinstalled a few times. I currently have black anodized lug nuts on both my car and my Ranger. The set on my Ranger look fantastic since they're new, but the set on my car are brown since anodizing fades in the sun. I don't know what type of finish is on the nuts in that eBay link above, so use at your own risk.
