please tell me why the front end in most of these stages is still level with the center of the front wheel. i want to lift the body of my f150 above off-road items.. i dont understand whats lifting here, if anything? it looks like you lowered to, to lift it too... my 2019 fx4 has the same clearance as your outcomes. i want to lift the body higher off the ground.

There's some factors to consider when you're debating between spacers and coilovers, especially if you're considering other modifications, as well as bigger tires. High quality coilovers definitely come with a heftier price tag, and if you're on a budget, you may want to go with the less expensive strut spacers and put the saved money towards the tires. The one X factor people often overlook with aftermarket coilovers is potential failure, and how you're going to deal with warranty returns. If your truck is your daily driver, and you don't have access to another vehicle, and one of your aftermarket coilovers fails, you got a problem. Chances are, whatever company manufactured them is gonna want the failed unit back before they ship you a replacement. Gonna be a little tough driving your truck with a coilover missing, eh? If you're running spacers, you simply transfer the spacer to the new strut assembly and you're good to go. You also have to be realistic about what type of environment your truck is going to be exposed to. Do you really need those high quality coilovers for the type of driving you're going to be doing? Some do, others may not. I recently purchased a 2020 F150, and have asked myself these same questions numerous times. In all reality, I'll probably go with 2" spacers and 33" tires, as the only off roading I really do is on the beach for some surf fishing. The money saved by going with spacers can go towards tires, and Borla S type exhaust. The biggest expense, at least for me, will be the stereo upgrade. Factory systems are trash. Some people will think nothing about dropping thousands on wheels, tires, lift kits, and other mods. For me, it's the sound system. I want loud, high quality sound, and I don't mind paying for it. Fortunately, the available mods for the F150 series trucks are endless. There's something to fit everyone's value system. I consider this a good thing..

Excellent straight forward approach and easy to understand. I'm currently leveled on 33s and +1 Offset with the hockey puck style on the FX4 due to cost (as Justin mentioned). The Coilover option looks great for me and would likely be the next direction I would go due to performance and ride quality. I don't guess it would raise up the FX4 more than about another inch or so, but again I would go with superior ride quality. Just noticed I am wearing my American Trucks T-Shirt as I am typing this.

So; a $200 2" front and rear spacer lift gives almost the same ground clearance as a $3000+ 6" lift (due to having to just drop everything back towards the ground to attain driveable geometry!) but without ALL the problems that come from being jacked to the sky. Got it thanks.

thats a foolish reply. A spacer is no where intended to improve the ride quality in any shape or form. Used only to level the truck and the ability to slap on a larger tire then stock. If you want to go on about quality suspension stuff you should be talking about cheeping out on an actual lift kit. Like lifting the truck and using stock coil overs vs a lift with upgraded coil overs, CA's etc.....

Very informative. Thank you. Hoping you or someone will see this after so many years. I'm considering a 3" level, with new, stronger arms, coil overs, reservoir and such, a high end levelling package, or jumping to a full on 4" lift on my anticipated new 2024 or 2025 F150, likely Platinum, maybe Tremor. Among my reasons, I want 35" tires with plenty of room (I have heard that the newer F150's currently are a bit more 35" tire friendly with less cutting needed, especially with a 9" or 10" wide tire which are my preference). Do you know, is there something you can do with a 3" level to eliminate those extra issues you referenced, and if so what? Would upgrading to better coil overs, stronger arms, reservoirs and such, maybe also that upgraded ball joint assembly you mentioned, would that be enough to resolve those issues, and if not, what else if anything can be done short of jumping to a full on 4" lift? Thanks. A big concern about jumping to a 4" lift is that from the videos it looks like that added metal going across between the front wheels actually drops down and may result in lower road clearance in that area compared to what it would be with a 3" to 3 1/2" or even 2 1/2" level. Any thoughts on that? Thanks.

In addition to my question below related to the topic of this very informative video, I have another, maybe you know the answer too. One of the reasons I am leaning towards not getting an F150 Raptor with its wonderful buttery smooth drive as so many call it, is its lower payload capacity, a potential problem if I choose to set up an overland kit. My question is, is there something that can be done to increase the Raptor's payload capacity, at least a few hundred pounds, without compromising its buttery smooth drive? Thanks. And as I've gotten older, the idea of customizing a max luxury Platinum sounds appealing.

As always, it really boils down to budget. If you're hitting a lot of the big washboard stuff then you might want to invest in some quality hardware to smooth things out- especially at speed. You can't really go wrong with any of the big body/Rezzy'd Fox coils with the DSC but I've also been really impressed by the Icon stuff and the Teraflex Falcon dampers- they reuse the factory spring but lift the front end through different perch heights. Quality of the dampers are killer. -Justin

I watched a ton of your videos last night and I really like what you did on the black "Ecoboost Street Build", but I definitely push my rigs to the max, so was thinking of starting with the Roush Fox 2.0 Coilovers, throw on 33" w/ mild offset (or more -- depending on if I want to invest in fenders), get the oil separator and maybe an upgraded air intake. Not trying to go over $5k right off the bat. But I want to be able to drive comfortably for long distances on the highway, while being able to charge and have fun on desert dirt, while having the confidence to go where I want.

Damn... so I need some help. I have an 01 F150 Harley Davidson edition. I hate the lowrider look & wanted to lift it. Considered a 5" and some 35's. But now I saw this video. I dont want to do any cutting. I want this truck to be able to go back to stock if its ever sold since its somewhat of a collector truck. What option do i have trying to achieve that look without permanently modifying the truck

Would a 2.5 level kit on a 2015 F-150 4×4 make a huge difference in ride and mpg? About to upgrade to this truck and only haul hay in the summer so the other 3/4 of the year I'm just driving. Just a quick question

I have a 2.5" spacers on my 2015 F150 4WD and the ride quality is a bit stiffer but not horrible at all. The front is up a bit higher than the back, though, so I'll be putting spacers in the back as well soon. MPG- it stayed the same or went down maybe 1 or 2 mpg but I also went from stock tires to knobby 33's so I know most of the change is from the larger tires

When I first leveled my 2016 f150 I had a company put on a 2" spacer on the front end and it leveled my truck. Ride quality unloaded didn't suffer but when loaded she definitely had a Cali lean and road pretty rough. This past year I went with the fox 2.5 coilover leveling kit and it's a completely different truck on the road. Accompanied with the sumo springs in the rear my truck drives great even when I have the 32' bumper pull RV on the back. I highly recommend going with a Coilover kit instead of spacer if you can fit it in your budget.

What's up guys? This video was very insructive and helpful, thanks again Justin. But 2 thing: I was told that the stut spacer compromise the "droop travel", what are the consequences if there are any and will a 1.5' spacer affect the droop travel also. Another thing you've mentioned 3 types of leveling kit but what about the perch collar( svc, rpg, icon etc.)? These are the ones that mount at the base of the spring, what are the pros and cons? And if Im not going crazy with my leveling( 1.5') what would be best a strut spacer or a perch collar? Why? Waiting for your comments guys
@americantrucks
@americantrucks 6 жыл бұрын
Hey Don- first up thanks for the kind words, Its greatly appreciated. In regards to your question a 1.5" leveling kit will be one of the safer ways to go as its not terribly drastic and should still allow for full articulation of your suspension without putting your angles/geometry at a compromising position. Now a 'perch collar' or 'perch mod' is typically something that is done when talking Raptors and does not exist for a standard F-150 due to the different front suspension/coil-over design. When shopping for a strut spacer in the 1.5" range its hard to grab a 'bad' option- most will be made from billet aluminum including the ReadyLift, Fabtech, Motofab, etc which is what I would go with. -Justin

Sorry Don- I was under the impression you had a standard F150 and not a Raptor. That's my bad! If you have a Raptor then yes, a perch collar will be the way to go- we offer an Icon collar on the site that will allow you to lift the front end anywhere from a .5" all the way to 2.25". Hope this helps! -Justin

@@americantrucks LOL, it is a Raptor indeed, I should have been more precise on my question... in fact I saw the ICON collar on the website, but I also saw a READY LIFT spacer that fits 17 and up Raptors, so if both would work and would not harm the truck can I take the ready lift kit? What do you think? I know you have thousands of followers asking you questions, this should be my last one about this topic... and thanks again what you are doing is priceless bro!
@americantrucks
@americantrucks 6 жыл бұрын
I would suggest the collar as opposed to the spacer on the Raptor. The top mount spacer might cause the shock to bottom out on compression where as the collar will change the preload but shouldn't affect total travel. And don't be afraid to ask away Don- I think you're over estimating my 'fame' haha. -Justin

Ok, I have an 03 F-150. It has 2 inch spacers in the back, looks to be leveled. It was like that when I bought it. This truck was a fleet truck, I am the second owner. I believe it was like that from Ford, nothing looks aftermarket. The only thing I am going after is a bit more ground clearance. I am running a 285/75-16, how would I approach going with a 315/75-16. I really don't want to permanently modify my truck, if I don't need to. That being said, I don't want to go spend 2 grand or more on new wheels. This truck is for working out in the fields. It's not a toy. I just want a little more out of it. This is kind of a long comment-question, but the more info given, the better the answer.

I had an 03 with rough country 2.5" leveling kit with 295/70/17s and that's really the biggest you can go on a leveling kit. 315s would be a very tight fit and you will have to do major trimming. I suggest doing maybe a 3" body lift or a Rough Country 4-5" suspension life.
