Thanks for the inspiration! I finally pulled the trigger on thuren coils,track bar, sway bar and fox 2.0s for my dually. I was hung up for a long time and did a ton of research before i pulled the trigger. Keep up the good work and keep the pics coming.

You're not going to be disappointed with this setup.. I've been running it for about a year now with zero issues or complaints. Our trucks should have come with this ride quality from the factory!

Why did you switch trucks? Is there a F150 build thread here?

I didnt start a build thread on the new truck.

I bent the frame, tweaked the bed to where the tailgate wouldnt close, and lost 6th gear on the dodge. Dumped it.

Bought the 2017 F150 because I wanted to build something that goes faster. I didnt start a new build thread here because I havnt been doing too much work to it.

It's got a rogue bumper, mid travel with kings up front, and a rogue stage 16 rear suspension setup with king 18" 3.5" 6 tube bypasses on order.

That sounds expensive,did you go airborne or something? I used to get my old Chevy twisted up enough to make closing the tailgate difficult,but that was usually when I was stuck in a sand dune.
As I remember it, you work in a Ford shop,so having a Ford makes sense.....nice looking Ford. I hope you post your upgrades,and adventures,good luck with it.

We go airborne every trip out. Our "off-roading" is heavily biased toward desert prerunning. Hence why the new truck is getting so much money dumped into the shocks and suspension.

I do work as a ford employee of sorts. But I'm no longer working as a fabricator, so my time to fab is replace by money to buy prefabbed parts, so that's how this build will end up.

Sounds fun. I am guessing you make more than the average employee at a place like that. Looking forward to your new build

What's man? sorry to bring up and old thread, but this was super fun to follow with a ton of great info,

I have a quick question

You mentioned you had zero offset on your methods but also said you need +15 to +20 in order to clear 37"

I'm trying to track down some methods in 17" with +15 or +20 but it doesn't look like the make them only with 0 or +25

Did your 0 offset clear everything ok? I don't mind trimming I built and have solid axle tacoma that i've cut 3" out of my fenders

I'm gonna build Thuren setup over time


Thank you in advance!!
