Were you in a KR F150, by any chance? And yep, just got back from my parents in Denham. I am assuming that you saw me headed west bound.

Were you driving a black KR with the 'Boost? If so, what size tires? Pretty sure that they were 285/65/20 BFGs.

For those that are still following, help me decide on something. I want new shocks on my truck. So I am either going to do:

Bilstein coil overs in the front and Fox shocks with reservoirs in the rear with either 285/65/20 tires or 295/60/20 tires when these wear.

Or a Rancho 4" lift with 9000XL shocks that are adjustable all around. I will go with 35" Mickey Thompson MTZs with this set up. I will wait till my current tires wear down before getting new tires and think that it will look goofy till the 35"s. Remember, the 4" lift will only lift my truck 1.5" since I already have a 2.5" leveling kit on it (I will remove the leveling kit but just saying it that way to keep things simple).

Yeah, I have an Eco

Mine are 275/65 nitto Terra's

I didn't want to get anymore extreme than that. Just wanted a subtle boost in appearance/stance without looking too aggressive

I gotcha. It looked good. Your taillights, they are the ones that come on the FX models. Where did you get them and what did they run? I like them better than the non black lights.

They are the harley tail lights

Got em from a ford dealer in eBay for about 120 bucks new

Easy plug and play

The chrome ones look terrible on a black truck IMO, not near as bad on the silver though. My last one was ingot too and I almost got the Harley's for it but never got around to it

Same style, I believe.

Not a bad price, might be able to sell mine and recoup some of that too.

Spot on. I have a lot more things to spend $100 on too.

You are just running a 2" leveling kit, right? It looked just about perfectly level.

Yeah it's a 2" daystar


Looks level enough for me

I wouldn't mind if it kept a little rake that's why I didn't go for the 2.5

Must have gotten it from Light Line. I let them talk me into a Daystar and I regretted it from the time I got it till I got my AS kit a few months later. Ride wasn't too bad but it seemed like it was a 1" spacer. AS leveled me and made the ride better.

Very sexy and good taste. I like the black rims with the black fenders and lack of chrome that mine has. Is yours a '13 or '12? The 13's have slightly larger turbos that are better for aftermarket power.
