Yeah the truck did. Most the other stuff come from Fine Line Automotive.

In the market for a F-150 as well. Are you in Lafayette area? If so, where did you get the level installed? Or did you DIY?

Your truck looks good!

same here. I get compliments on mine all the time. very unique and the least common of all the colors given the KR/Plat exclusivity and the fact that it was only done for 2 year models

why ford refuses to offer it baffles me.

But lord knows they'll offer 5 whites and 15 gray/silver choices each year.

Yessir in Lafayette area. I got level, tint, and bed cover from fine line automotive. The guys there do good work and are solid people. Plus you get a free loaner truck while yours is being seen about.

Thats the truth. It’s basically down to white, gray, blue, or red these days

Sorry to bump an ancient thread. But Uncle Jack I see you ended up with the 295/60r20 in Ridge grapplers, and mentioned looking at the 295/65r20. Do you think that the latter would have fit ok? I'm trying to get some in the next few days while I am up in Shreveport seeing family and they have to order the 35/11.5r20's and idk how long that will take but they have the 295/65r20's in stock I think and the 35/12.5r20 as well. Is anyone running a Ridge grappler in any of these sizes with a 18-20 body style f150 4wd with a 2.5" level?

@hawgndodge that is an amazing looking truck you got there. Are those trail grapplers weathering well for you? I was also looking at those, but since I am currently in grad school I don't spend a whole lot of time back up in the area I grew up in and I am mainly in Nola and I wonder if that would be a bad choice since it seems all I ever do anymore is drive on the interstate or highway between Nola and CenLa. They handle well on the highway or in rain?

I have a 2017 f-150 with a 2.5” leveling kit and 275/60/R20 Firestone destination at2’s. It comes out to 33”. I had the same tires on my 4Runner and now my truck. I believe they will last longer than the advertised 55k miles.

ahh thanks for the info. My stock tires are 32's and I am probably going to end up getting 275/65r20, as the 35/11.5r20's aren't in stock and I don't feel like having to wait and drive back up to get them in Shreveport. I believe they have the 35/12.5r20's in stock but I feel like they will rub with just a 2.5" level. My brother in law has that size in a diff tire and his don't rub with a 2" level but idk seems like a pricey gamble. I can't find anyone saying they are running that size without spacers on stock 20's and just a level.

No rubbing?


I'm running 285/65r20's (35's) for mud tires (with a 12k winch and bumper) and I have no rubbing of any kind.
