If u have like a 10 year old truck and adding lift kit would u suggest replacing the other components. To be exact it’s an 2009 f-150

Yes I have a question I hope someone can answer.... why are their no "any level kits" for F150s??? There all made for 3/4 ton and higher trucks. I would love to get a any level kit for my F150.
BDS = NO WARRANTY ISSUES!
Nah, a side from tire rod ends, my only worry was “will my truck still have the towing capability to haul all this poon tang around?”. Answer was, yes....cuz there wasn’t very much to begin with😭
I had a 6 inch procomp lift kit on my 2013 Silverado. I had it on there since i bought the truck. As of this comment i took the lift off and went to leveled with 33s. A lifted truck just won’t tow as good as a stock truck unless you have big pockets and regear the truck accordingly. My truck was running 3.42s stock to get it towing right i would of had to go to 4.88s. The power was just gone between the huge 35s and towing a lot of weight.
My truck currently in shop now getting lifted as I watch this lol

Could always even get your lift, tires and wheels financed when you buy your truck so it isn’t straight expensive but does add a little more to pay off
In some states they are starting to make it so you can not be pulled over for lifts tint etc but if you are speeding it not using a signal you can be but in the same argument a coo could also pull you over even if you are only going a few miles over
Love the vids but the ADTR tattoo made my day i have a similar one!!

I got a rough country 2inch lift on my ram 1500 and it rides super rough compared to the factory suspension, every bump i hit sounds expensive
Lifted a new 2003 Sierra SLT Z71. 6” on 35”. 3 transmissions , front end issues, axles, steering issues ( all the time) and 90,000 miles later, the truck was done. Lift kits kill your truck. But that is the price we pay to play! Rule number one - agree to the issues above and you are ready!

Got my dads old Silverado i live in western Illinois and the wind is definitely annoying because i see same make/model and gen trucks blowing by me. But at 60 the wind is tossing me. I feel like a lift would make it worse
I like the raked look, dont like sidesteps. I work with my trucks, sometimes i go off road on job sitesbut ground clearance is not a major concern. Often lifts will cause increased wear and tear on suspension or is that a myth?
I just got a 14inch FTS lift with 44x15.50R30x16
Lol liked the part of whistling diesel and monster max
This is good stuff to know Iam only going with 4" inch lift. On 37s I should be okay with that

If your truck (with a lift kit installed) gets totaled, will your insurance company cover the cost of the lift kit? If not, can lift kit companies reimburse the cost of the lift kit? I feel like I know the answers to these questions already, but just felt the need to comment anyway.

I've had it lifted for two years and only tuned the engine specs. I haven't noticed any problems shifting. Is he full of it or is there something to his warnings. I can't find anything anywhere telling me either way. The truck has the infamous 4L60E transmission.
