    Hello all.

    New to this forum but not new to forums in general. I had fords all my life except for the past 5 years I had an 07 jeep JK unlimited. I run with a local club pretty heavy and also a moderator for our clubs personal forum site.

    Picked up an 09 F150 with 48k miles on it in march of this year. Did my homework before doing any serious mods.

    End result
    Front: Installed Bilstein 5100 adjustable coil overs set at 2". (Actually gained 2-1/2" of height up front on each side).
    Rear: Installed Bilstein 5100 series shocks.(Gained 1/2" height)
    Rear: will be doing AAL second week of January
    Stock rims with 285/70-r17 Fierce Attitude tires

    2- 8" KC Rally 35w HID Long Range mounted on Fabtech 4 tab light bar
    Will be adding 2 more rally's in spring.

    Window vent shades and 5% limo tint all around.

    I know the rule. Pics or it didn't happen so here you go.

    Thanks guys. I never lifted my JK but a lot of guys I run with are. But I could go anywhere they went. Our club is just over 100 members. Do a lot of wheeling ,wrenching and fundraiser for good causes.

    We just did a toys for tots run this past weekend and wheeled through Wharton state forest to the park police station to drop them off. Wheeled the f150 with 33 jeeps lol. Was the first time with the lift and tires and I have to say all performed out standing. Tires I am extremely impressed with. Grip dry wet and mud is all a 10! Wet road take off they won't spin. And driving about 20 mph on trail they were ripping the road apart behind me the guys where telli me and I was not even trying.

    We have a club sponsor and all he deals with is jeep stuff. Lifts parts accessories. Anything you can think off. The guy lives here in jersey and is also a club member. I still use him to purchase everything for my truck. Gives me a super deal better than anyone online etc.
    for example I only paid 300 total for the rear shocks and front coil overs. Only got that kinda deal cause he is a member and our club sponsor
