Hey guys,

Well after much going back and forth with the 3 wheels I originally chose for my truck,I ended up findin somthing that was a mix of both the wheels that I liked.I also installed a leveling kit from Newton lifts.Here are the specs of everything:

2.5" leveling spacers up front and 4" blocks in the rear from Newton Lifts
20x10 Fuel couplers -24 offset
35x12.5x20 Amp M/T's

I really like the turnout of the truck and can't wait to add some amp steps to it.

Did you install an adjustable track bar? If not can you tell the axle being not centered or is it still? Did you install alignment caster cams? Thanks

I installed the spacers for the track bar that came with the Newton kit.Negative on the alignment caster cams.

I'm just running the shock extenders on the front right now.Im pretty set on the Rancho 9000's tho in a few months if I don't change up this setup.

I have the rs9000's the adjustability is a novelity item, if you want them they ride decent at 7 up front and 3 in the rear... I would look into the bilstein 5100's also not adjustable but everyone I know that has me loves em

I really like the stance of your setup, looks good! ! How does the lift ride?

Ill buy your OEM steps off of you, then you'll have a nice down payment on some AMP steps

let me know if you're interested in selling them.

Hi Guys....

Some good looking trucks here.
I just brought home my 2015 F350 6.7L Lariat in Tuxedo Black, and have been trying frantically to research what I can do to it.
Modifications are a Sick addiction I guess.

I just tried going to Newtons site, but the store part doesn't seem to wok?
Are they a new company?

Any other options for a small lift?

I'm a bit nervous about the damn engine mods with all this emissions crap on the thing?

Thanks for any info you can provide to an addict!

Welcome&i suggest ready lifts 3.5" front&3"rear,it'll still have a barely noticable .75"(3/4")rake which will help maintain your stability when loaded&is said to ride like stock&from a reputable company as well,plus its easily installed&reversed incase you sell or trade your truck&it runs stock replacement shocks.Its the route im taking

I had a set of ranchos for about 2 weeks then took them off and 2 of them wouldn't rebound =dead ...worst shocks Ford could have ever put on..try fox 2.0s about 450$ shipped best bang for your buck until you get into kings,icons, and custom built ..
