2019 F150 STX 4x4 Off-Road Build Overview

[@rdsii64]

Mine is a magma red 2018 super crew. This is literally a template for my over all goal over time. The only difference is I'm keeping my factory wheels because I like them, and I'm not taking my truck anywhere that the factory 20 inch wheel will be a problem.

[@365JohnDoe]

Full race intercooler in combination with the light bar is a nice combo to solve any overheat issue.

[@simpleinstinct]

On my 2019 STX I'm running raptor wheels with 315 70r17. Did NOT cut the crash bars out.

[@fratdaddy7434]

What suspension you running? And offset?

[@richardshaffer6057]

Could you fit a full size spare with that setup ?

[@simpleinstinct]

@@richardshaffer6057 Yes.

[@fratdaddy7434]

What offset are your wheels ?

[@simpleinstinct]

@@fratdaddy7434 2 inch leveling kit, Bilstien 6112s and 5160s. An add a leaf kit. I had raptor wheels from a 2017 Raptor. I swapped them out for some 0 offset wheels and now they rub.

[@nick-trish]

...Damn that's a good lookin truck! Aside from them fugly wheels. It's still in it's first 6 month period before the undercarriage rusts completely out!

[@chad3034]

Just ordered the fox 2.5 kit from you guys. Installing it here soon on 17x8.5 with a 0 offset. I opted for a 285/75r/17 tire keeping the same 33”+ but slightly more narrow than the video 305 size, curious to see if I can run without taking off crash bars. Will find out soon!

[@deadheart556]

You'll be find. I have the same set up with Fox 2.0s

[@Dansal1980]

Just curious…any updates on how it all fit?

[@COLTSWAY]

Looking good! She’s a beast for sure! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

[@Nate-zy5ce]

Very useful. Thanks. Two questions. How large a tire could I go with that set up without having to cut and trim? You said those were 33.9, basically, 34, but they did need that extra trim and cut. Also, does going with so small a wheel, does that in any way affect what brakes you can use? Thanks.

[@seanm1054]

​ @Noah Stage 3 Nice setup. I have a few questions you may be able to help me with. I have a leveled (2”) 2020 F150: --- Fox 2.5 Factory Race Series with Reservoir (No DCS) front and rear. -----Icon Delta UCA -----Icon Rebound 17x8.5 +6mm offset 1) Will the 305/70r17 fit? I know cutting will be involved.. Did you cut front, rear, or both front and rear crash bars? 2) How about 285/75r17? with same cutting follow-up question. Last one same questions : the reason I ask is I have 33x12.5 which work with no rubbing. However, I was sadly disappointed when I actually measured and they aren't 33. Thanks in advance! Appreciate your time. keep up the great content!! Sean

[@zakarysmith7179]

I just got the 305/70 r17 with a 17x9 0 offset wheel and there is a little bit of rubbing on the rear crash bar and rear carpet. Here pretty soon I'm going to cut just the rear crash bar and some of the carpet and I can get back to you and let you know if it rubs

[@bigf1502]

Have a 2” lift, run 275/65r20 Cooper Rugged Trek (34.6x11.6) on stock wheels. Tires have 18.5/32 tread depth. No rubbing/cutting : have wheeled her pretty good too.

[@seanm1054]

@@bigf1502 …I ended up going w/285/75/17 (33.8x11.2) and no rubbing.. if I go back to 20” then I’ll definitely gone the 34.6..

[@bigf1502]

@@seanm1054 That’s what I had on my last truck, it worked out great! Was a little smoother off-road with the 17s, but a little more roll on-road. Only reason I didn’t go to 17s is because I plan on buying a big break kit which I’ll need the 20s to clear the calipers.

[@officertwentynine7598]

Can you please list all the parts/connectors required to make the rigid fog lights work? Rigid said they may flicker going from a factory halogen to an aftermarket led. Also what bracket did you guys use for the upgraded fogs. Thank you.

[@NoahStage3]

Just added two new links in the video description. You'll need the Grimm Offroad Fog Light Brackets since Rigid's brackets are discontinued and you'll also need a pair of H10 to Deutsch wiring adapters to connect to the factory harness. We haven't had any problems with flickering on ours, but if you use a more powerful, non-street legal light then you could run into an issue. Hope this helps

[@LissaMia]

for my over all goal over time. The only difference is I'm keeping my factory wheels because it's to expensive for me

[@kdensadrummer]

Did you only have to cut the front crash bars? Or was trimming of the rear crash bar also needed?

[@dantheman9395]

Love it. Definitely the K.I.S.S. method

[@SaltyDog711]

What are the graphics on the bed that you added? They look nice and are not tacky looking.

[@kevinayers7144]

you should do this again

[@fratdaddy7434]

Did you have to cut both front and back crash bars?

[@Vergoso_42]

I wish you guys would’ve gotten some night time shots of the beam patterns. great vid

[@craigwhitwam6560]

Pass side control arm bolts loose and wiggling at 2:06!!!!

[@tylervanbooven5764]

I saw that too. Pretty crazy

[@magician4444able]

Were you able to fit the same tire size underneath the truck (spare area) ? Or you just keep it stock ?

[@Marco-fi6gv]

Great question. I was wondering same thing

[@grandfatherwilkens2987]

Did you have to regear for the larger tires? I'm considering moving to a similar tire size up from stock and wondering at what point regearing is advisable?

[@johnklug589]

Pretty sure you can fit up to 32s or 33s without cutting from what I've researched and heard

[@levo6217]

Berry good

[@Freabyrd]

Great Build 👍

[@oc6920]

Dope build! Will the king coilovers allow to fit 315/70/17 tires?

[@NoahStage3]

Glad you like it! 315/70R17 tires can be made to fit with the King 2.5 suspension, but it will definitely require trimming the crash bars to avoid rubbing.

[@oc6920]

@@NoahStage3 got it thanks!

[@yt310yt]

@@NoahStage3 That is odd because I have Fox 2.0 setup on same F150 and I can run 315/70R17 (Raptor take offs) without any rubbing or crash bar removal.

[@NoahStage3]

@@yt310yt Well, you've got my attention haha. How much lift are you getting from the Fox 2.0s and what's the wheel offset? Do you get any rub under full articulation or while turning offroad?

[@msalazar89]

@@yt310yt raptor wheels offset are made for 35s to run on them. It's all about the wheel offset

[@RobustArid379]

You have a Tiny little disc brake. how come for such a big heavy car. My honda civic has Brembo and has larger disc brake.

[@ryanrupp1]

Did you guys put an aftermarket skid plate on it too? Or did you just remove the air dam?

[@NoahStage3]

No aftermarket skid plates on this truck yet. We just removed the air dam up front.

[@dpjedi]

Where were the action clips recorded?

[@ricardocazares7642]

What size block in the rear

[@BaconCruiser]

You put a light bar where your winch goes 🤦‍♂️

[@NoahStage3]

Nahhh, not on this truck. This F150 spends most of its time doing wide open desert running so a winch is rarely helpful. A set of traction boards and a small air compressor do the trick and weigh far less. If this was more of a trail focused build or an expedition rig then a winch would be the way to go.

[@jasonluty2361]

love the video just curious if you have noticed a drop in fuel economy with these mods?

[@benallyjaredful]

I doubt that, these mods make the truck more aerodynamic. I'm willing to bet that mpg's 🚀🚀🚀

[@bigf1502]

Lol. 2” coil over system, 35x12r20 E Rated on mine… 3.5 ecoboost 4x4 SuperCrew. Went from 20 average to 15 mpg avg. smiles per gallon went from approx 5 to 25.
