09-13 F-150 Leveling Kit Install

[@c2h2o9c9olate]

Did this to my 2007 f-150 when it was brand new from the dealer. Never was sorry I did as it made getting larger tires on it possible as I needed that to get into the fields with when they were muddy. Never any problems after that.

@Cayson Cooper instablaster =)

[@caysoncooper8420]

@Alfredo Conner Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and Im trying it out atm. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@caysoncooper8420]

@Alfredo Conner it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D Thanks so much you saved my account :D

[@alfredoconner9892]

@Cayson Cooper No problem xD

[@sthrnvoice3198]

I've had an '07 and '09 F150 and I loved both! Still drive the '09 to this day.

[@MrPeewacker]

Last video I watched they were working on it like it was a surgery. Y’all are just up in there manhandling that thang 😂

[@TactiCali27]

I have a gold 2012 with the same tow mirrors. I just got my leveling kit today and will use this video to install mine. Thanks!

[@mingusbreeze]

Thanks, it looks a whole lot better.

If you don’t want the rubbing!?? Just go straight!!! Lol 😆 looks awesome 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@jordanfewins7044]

Can you give the exact tire and rim and offset size? Thank you!

[@nicklindsey8926]

You tightened that axle nut back on right?

[@jtettes]

Good job boys!!

[@luismendoza8854]

“Did it with it a croissant” made me hungry 😂

[@robertfranklin2037]

I think it looks great man Don't do the awesome job

[@yayyay7076]

That m12 putting in work!!! Must be brushless

[@independentfool]

Putting that strut back in the lower control arm, you made it look too easy.

[@Gomezlawncare779]

I love your truck man!!

[@anthonycumella4602]

Looks fantastic, nice video !

[@ericpeterson8904]

Thanks for the video, I installed a different brand kit but installed the same! I had to use a croissant wrench as well

[@jamesetyrrell13]

Sweet truck bro...I love the newer F150's...I think they ride and drive the best out of all of them and have wanted a blue one like yours for a long time ..but other bills come first..but I will have one some day

[@fodowvovo]

I work at the Ford plant in Buffalo so if you're looking into buying a new one let me know I'll hook you up with my A-plan which takes off up to 8 grand depending on the model you want.

[@JHaas_07]

@@fodowvovo wow buddy’s got the hookup!!

[@scottyvnc]

What size 18” Falkens did you go with? Truck looks great!

[@jonganzer7478]

Really helpful, thanks for all the detail. Great video!

[@lonniewhite258]

It's the same as my 08 was, I went with billet just in case.

[@trailrippers1588]

Does it hurt or affect the trucks suspension over time?

[@hunterburch2675]

Only if you go above 2.5 inch for a leveling kit

[@davidfarthing1728]

What year is this truck and is it a 2WD?

[@JordanFlaten]

doesn't removing/separating the axle screw up the IWE vaccuum?

[@JordanFlaten]

Also, i just watched a guy install spacers by only disconnecting the lower control arm and sliding the strut in and out. is this possible!?

[@willhart7861]

Same thing I was wondering too

[@aserta]

Shop tip. Get a regular fan, ditch the blade, find a tri-blade (RC, prolly a Mustang RC plane or something like that) make it fit, and then profit. Prolly wanna make note of the way the motor spins before buying the prop. When these props, which are fully optimized for flight aren't run 100%, which a fan is like what...40% or there about, they are very quiet. I 3D printed mine and it's one of the quietest fans ever. Obviously, if you hit the camera, it will "ping", but set it at the ground and you should be fine. Being hot and sweaty when you work sucks a&&.

[@alanwittner477]

Fun fact: Falken Tire is not actually a knockoff at all. They are their own tire brand and are owned by Sumitomo rubber industries. The Nitto brand is actually owned by Toyo

[@brycea0225]

Alan Wittner I concur. Falken has been around for a minute and is definitely not any kind of off brand or copy cat kind of company. The Wild peaks have great reviews and they should serve him well

[@sergecasas3979]

Vid made me sub. Good job bro.

[@ch1ckss572]

Love your videos ❤️

[@flman1284]

How's the clearance on the UCAs? How about the angle on the UCA ball joint after install?

[@Brandon-mf5uh]

Looks awesome. I just bought a 2011 f150 Texas Edition and want to get a leveling kit. This helps a lot, thanks.

[@jessemercury7413]

Looking into a 2013 f150 Texas edition, did you ever get the kit on it? That’s the first thing I want to do to mine.

[@dougbandy3957]

Did you do a 1&1/2 " or 2" level kit on the 2011 ?

[@lifebythehorns]

This looks way more difficult than it should be lol

[@gene2200]

How long did 1st side take? It's the learning curve, looks great!

[@isaacocasio3165]

Any updates to the truck?

[@joshuamorehead6124]

Truck looks sick😎

[@c2h2o9c9olate]

No it's not a Chevy, it's a real truck.

[@glennmoyers4956]

What inch is the level kit? I just bought a 1.5" for the exact same truck and now womder if its big enougjh

[@marksnovel7622]

Anything that has a blue oval on it is the best

[@apvlogs8129]

Not sure if he said it in the video, its loud where im at.. but what is the wheel & tire size??

[@jakesmith4741]

Upper control arm nut won’t come off on mine

[@exotic2raw]

I have a 99 F150 and am going to do a level kit sometime soon as well, love the look! 🙌🏽

[@evan3179]

Crank your keys up

[@MicroScaleGarage]

i got my kiit sitting i have auto springs 2 /1/2 leveing spacers i dont no if i need taller ones in rear of my 2011 f150 4x4 epic video

[@geraortiz9702]

2 inches level ? Size in tires pls and just the front or in the rear too ?

[@44lilron]

Did you raise the rear with any blocks?

[@jeffmeadors6930]

Whit size tires are they? I got 18s as well with 285/70/18.

[@markgreene6319]

What size wheel and tire setup you have?

[@colbynagy3811]

What size is the nut on the upper control arm?

[@connerwright94]

What nuts did you have to buy?

[@Momentumtrisport]

Where can I buy that grille?

[@Lnkrjbkdkd]

Were you find the rims??

[@billnye3839]

What impact are you using ?

[@hayden_prescott]

where’d u get the lights from?

[@jansenfuller8702]

Question, what do you do when your trying to take the bolt off the upper control arm and the bearing just keeps spinning

[@Funky1111]

You should be able to put a 10mm box wrench on the bottom of the stud for leverage. You will not be able to use an impact if you need to do it this way.

[@bethb3175]

With just the leveling kit installed do I need to get the truck aligned?

[@grumpynomad3551]

Yes. That’s a must after install. ASAP, I did mine at the same time it’s roughly 2 hundred dollars to get shop to do it. 2 hundred for the kit, then 85 for alignment. About 500 will get you level properly if you don’t install yourself.

[@dirtbike6458]

What size level was this

[@tezzogtezzog8530]

What leveling kit did you use

[@B00MxHE4DSh0t]

how did you do your taillights that nice?

[@demetriusdallas3555]

What running bars are those?

[@nickolinkz202]

Is that a 2-inch leveling kit?

[@djhoyt7609]

So what about the adjustment bolts you need for the lower control arm? Every shop says they won’t do the alignment without it

[@GodschildinNC]

Truck looks awesome!! I can not wait to see the power gains from your work. Maybe you could dyno the truck stock and after each mod to see what the gains are for each mod.

[@Kusv583]

I too have the same question as others which I have not seen an answer to….does leveling effect the ride quality?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

It did not. Ride was as good as factory. I did notice a drop in gas mileage in just the leveling kit.

[@Kusv583]

@@RedBeardsGarage great. Thanks for responding 😊

[@billiebowling7755]

Look sharp I think those half inch thick fender flares would really set this truck off with that silver in the background

[@Sam-bj9wh]

How wide are the tyres

[@Hawaii2471]

Are these 18x9s or 18x10?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

18x10

[@Hawaii2471]

Also the tires are 305/55/18s? And what's the Falken tire model name if you don't mind me asking.

[@jasondeloach3045]

I have a 91 f150 that want to do this to it butt it's just the springs I need to swap out

[@chriskeim5575]

Did you get an alignment done?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Yes right after the install

[@Daniel-pc1er]

Are those 18x10s? Also, how do you like the Falken tire? I'm getting a 2010 F-150 FX4 by the end of summer and definitely wanting something like yours. Really like the video because it gives me an idea of what I'm going for

[@reitzy69]

All that work and then the cam phasers wipe out...tee hee

[@FirstLast-ig2mg]

This a 2wd or 4wd?

[@jongregory185]

Was it a 1.5” kit? Need to do the same to my truck

[@johnoberle9750]

Dude don’t take a cheater bar to that beautiful V Craftsman ratchet. The v selector knob. That is vintage collectible.

[@BMAREK]

What size tires and rims

[@gsrdc297]

Tire and wheel specs please!

[@TheKegs96]

So I just installed my 2 inch level but with lifted struts and rear shocks. As well it came with the 2 inch blocks for the back. Well it ain’t quit level?? You can still notice a little kick up in the rear, Am I missing something? A little upset it didn’t turn out full level. Will the rear eventually level? Please help

[@alecneate6972]

So you did 2 inches at the front and 2 inches at the back? It’s not gonna be level unless you bring the front up more than the rear.

[@kylesaich1]

How'd you guys get that strut back in there, I couldn't, for the life of me, push that strut back in after putting the spacer on top. The control arm would not get down far enough, tried removing the knuckle from the lower control arm but at that point it could move far enough to release that bushing, I put it all back together to take a swing at it again next week.

[@NoOneKnows1]

kyle saich make sure you have BOTH front tires off the ground.. the suspension is connected so if only one side is up, it puts pressure on the other side and makes it impossible to move anything

[@brandonshane4822]

After changing out my old struts to bilstein 5100’s and changing my upper control arms I can’t get the knuckle and upper control arm to match up. Any suggestions? Thank you.

[@refugeinc.159]

PlanetF150 on YT did the same leveling kit. Now just get rid of those ugly ass rain guards, and you'll be all set!

You were supposed to pull vacuum.

Croissant LUL

[@wymonwatson1309]

Never beat on the tie rod that way, put pressure on it with a pry bar, and hit the part its stuck into, it should pop apart relatively easily, and you don't risk damaging your tie rod end.

[@willbeasley9803]

First one

[@jesusgarcia1589]

I got in the mail 2” strut leveling box and got regular struts

[@eliowens932]

Hi

[@eddieperez9858]

I had my f-150 leveled with spacers on top of the struts but problem I kept having was my control arm Was hitting against spring . As well it was damaging my suspension. Decided to drop it back down to normal. Anyone have the same issue? Did mine exactly like the video .

[@snipert6841]

Yea on my 11’ went with rancho quick lift (full strut) never hit again. I think they make them slightly slimmer

[@madmexican1002]
