Justin’s down to earth straight up approach is awesome

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..

I got all my advice, recommendations, ideas, and purchases strictly based off these videos. Justin reeled me in. Love these videos and my F-150 is starting to come along. Lol half the stuff I'm watching I've already purchased for my truck but I just love the videos and authenticity.

Great video. Finally understand the difference . Never fully understood until now.

I love videos that don’t waste my time with intros and foolery

The blue STX in the background sits & looks perfect in my opinion , just bought a 2018 F-150 4x4 XLT supercab & I want it to sit like the blue STX

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. Thanks Justin!

Thank you for this informative video! I'm just going to get a leveling kit I think👌

Wished American Trucks Ford sold the same amount of parts and accessories for 97-03 as they do for the later models.

Great video, just what I needed to help make my decision 👌🏻

Thanks for the video it helps a lot

This channel has helped me out so much recently! Thanks guys

Justin... Awesome information. Thanks.

Thank you! This really helped me decide!

Great vid guys. I can say I have a 1996 f150 all these will work but when I did my truck I went “all out” as some would say I did full suspension lift in the front and the arched leafs in the back no added block or springs and I’m here to say it’s worth totally the extra for me was 400 bucks it rides better then stock with 10 ply 12.50 wide toyos

Very informative for a quick synopsis, thank you!

Nice video, thank you for the information. I got a question What do we do to avoid axle wrap?

Great video! Question: I have a 2022 Ford F-250 and recently purchased a 2.5” readylift with track bar kit. However the kit did not come with castor shims. They state it is not needed, I am seeing others where they state they are needed. Thoughts?

Best video by far in explaining everything option

I think the F150 looks way better with the 33 inch tires

Very informative. Good video thanks.

thanks for the video

What do you think for a 2004-2008 Ford F150 10inch lift. What do you suggest? Or can you make a video of 8inch and higher lift kits?

Really great video, thank you!

Can you do some videos on the 10th gen f-150

What do you think about Halo Boss coilovers 3" lift for '16 f150? With Total Chaos UCAs

I might go with the coil over lift

Great video

Can you put spacers on the coilovers and add more blocks to the back?

Excellent!

I added a 3in block on my 2010 silverado 1500 at 50k miles... the control arm bushings went out 10k miles later. Replaced it with a 2in and make sure to add block in the rear. He 3in is dumb if you dont but a block in the rear to level it out. Especially if you tow or put stuff in the back, it will squat alottt

Can y’all do a 2009 f150 heater core replacement video?

What about air suspension? How does that compare to these?

I have a 1993 Ford F-150 XLT Regular Cab. Any recommendations on which lift kit to use?

When you put a 6 inch lift on a F150 limited does it change any of the component readings power steering breaking tires if so do you have to reset these things

What size tires does a blue truck have in the back? I think it looks great

I've had a bilstein level kit for over a year in my garage for my f150. Dont seem to ever have the time for my truck to be down to install it. I really need to as both my coil springs are broke and it rides like a wagon.

What set up on that blue Ford? And size rim?

What is the set up on the Blue STX behind you on the video. I have a 2016 FX-4 and like that set up and tire and wheel combo

What leveling kit do u recommend 4 the 2010 Ford raptor with a 5.4 3 v super cab

So if I want to level my pick up by two inches what other components should I buy to make sure that I don’t damage the truck or add unnecessary wear and tear on the the truck? Should I buy upper control arms to add? What other components if I’m leveling my truck by 2inches?

If you have a 1999 F150 and run a 6" rough country, makes sense. But if you have a 2019 F150 that was $50k, you better be running Fabtech or BDS

So does the Roush trucks come with the Fox 2.0 shocks ? Also does the Roush trucks come with 2 inch lift ?

Really nice job

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.

Which would be the best choice to level the pickup so it’s neither nose high or look like stock nose too low?

@Americantrucksford Looking for suggestions on a lift kit. Or my stock 2016 F150 super crew xlt fx4 short-bed. Wish to keep the factory rake. Want a 2-3” lift but don’t want to mess up the geometry or cause uneven wear. Suggestions?

So if I do a 2.5” coil over level and run about a 33”-34” tire are my cv angles bad? If so can you do I diff drop to correct it? I want low center of gravity and off-road performance.. thanks

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.

Looking to fix Mr Toads Wild Ride.I have a 2001 Ford 150 4x4 4door. I would like to do a suspension overhaul of the truck to get it driving nicely again and to stop the white knuckle grip. Any suggestions you can recommend would be great. I don’t want to lift it at all. All ready sits on 33’s.

What kit is on the blue ford behind you?

What is the set up on the Blue truck behind you? Lift , tire and wheel combo

i have a 1999 ford f-150 tri ton, all stock it’s more or so of a project pickup, what lift kit do you all recommend ?

Does anyone know if a 2.5” level kit will provide sufficient clearance for 33” tires with 20” x 10.5” +12mm offset wheels?

I have a 2wd 2010 ford f150 harley edition . If i use a 6 inch rough country lift , will there be any cutting involved and will i be able to return it to stock later on if i want too?

Why don't you guys review and mid or long travel kits?

One Question please. Can I install 33 inch tyre on my F150 2019 straight forward, as I don't need leveling kit ? Please reply to my ASAP. Thanks

Hey I have a f250 & I want about a 3 inch lift what’s that best? & I want to fit 24s on but don’t know what size tire I should get ? Third I wanted a slight offset but -24 maybe. I need help. What would you suggest?

Great video guys! What are the upgraded gunmetal wheels and tires are on the black F-150? 3:23

Nice!!

What are wheels at 3:46?

Maybe it's the camera angle but the 6" looks like the rear is still a little lower than the front

What about 3 inch in front and 3 inch in back ? Wanna put 35

I like my f150 but i kinda wish I just spent half the cash to upgrade my old 07' fx4 level II ranger instead. It was almost unstoppable stock, I could have made it insane! This f150 will cost me a lot more to do what I want.

I have a 2015 f150 with the coyote 5.0 cold air intake 6 inch pro comp lift 37 x 20 x 13.50 an it's mean looking it's about to go bigger going to do all leads in the back an add another 3 inch lift to it soon have 40 inch tires under it

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

i have a 2012 whit 7 studs option on it so it is already lifted a bit i guess i can go to 33 inchs? whitout lifting or leveling

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.

So what does that blue truck have ?

Would love to see a video for the GMC Canyon, Mods, lift kits, etc.. you guys rock!

Is a coil over with a spacer posible? I wanted a 4 inch lift.

Awesome

I bought the rough country 2.5 lift and leveling kit for my 2001 f150 . Great price haven't put it on yet

What lift does the blue truck have??

I've never heard the term axle wrap before, that doesn't sound good. how do I avoid it ?

I've always been curious as to how well big lifts hold up to blown F150s that put down 600 or more whp in regards to drive shaft spacers, blocks, etc.

Is there a channel for lowered trucks?

I’m going to be buying a 2017 ford raptor and I am trying to figure out and find the best leveling kit for the front probably around 1.5 inches that way I don’t sacrifice any or at least minimal ride comfort, performance, etc. i’m getting multiple opinions so I can get the best results that I’m looking for and looking for suggestions! Thank you!

What if I want to lift 6 inches AND have the offeoad performance?

I have the Rough Country 6” on my 2017 F-150 4x4. All was good the first couple years, and now my camber is way off, and I’m chewing up my high dollar tires. Had it at the alignment shop, and they say it’s in spec, but I can visually see it’s way off. Can anyone help with a fix for this?

1997-2003 ford f150 coilover review and install please 35 inch tires

What lift did the blue truck in the back have? Looked awesome

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

What’s the wheels and tire specs at 2:45?

I will watch but I want to rake the rear about 2 to 2.5 inch without moving the front at all is this possible with bolt on parts or is that done with Air Shocks as in the old days

3 inch body. 2 inch spacer. 35x12.50x20

Could you fit bigger tires (without rubbing) by cutting the fender panels and adding tires spacers?

Hey guys thanks for all your videos.. I just want to level my 2017 F150 up in the front a little. Would a one and a half inch leveling kit make my truck ride any differently? Thanks Joe.

With any lift/level kit, is there an official standard to adjust the headlight level?

Will adaptive cruise and lane keep be affected from front end lifts? As more and more trucks add these systems i'm curious if you've seen any problems post lift/level. This topic needs to be addressed and you guys seem like the folks to do it.

What coilover lift would you recommend for lots of highway driving and then TONS of dirt road, big wasboard Utah backroad driving, with the occasional rock crawling? I currently have a Tacoma with Old Man Emu and LOVE the handling on and off road. I'm looking at buying an ecoboost with a mild overland build in back.

So you can’t get things like a long arm lift kits

So my fx 2015 ford f150 is pretty high stock wondering if i can fit a 33" tire

Level kit with some 33's to me is the best look

Can you help..? What size tire can you fit just with a 2.5 leveling kit.. i am concern about rubing.. with 305-60-20 or 285-65-20 with a wheel size of 20x10 negative -18.. can you recomende a more aqurate wheel and tire size that will no rub on turnig... thank you

I bought a used truck which is lifted but I do not know how much. How can I find out?

2000 F150 build?

Can I fit a set of 33x12.50 mud terrain tires with a 20” wheel with a 2” leveling kit? Without having to cut anything on my truck??

Hey would it be a good idea to put a coil spring that gives a 4 inch lift in the front then a 4 inch leaf spring spacer? Is there any cons that would damage my truck
