    Lift a F 450 like an Earthroamer.

    Bob; Both of these companies told me the kits were not for the cab and chassis. Superlift and pro comp said the same thing. I only want 3 or 4 inches at the most. I have two little ones to get in the truck.

    Lift a F 450 like an Earthroamer.

    Does anyone have any information on how Earthroamer lifts their truck to put 37 inch tires. Even Kelderman said they do not have a lift for a F450 or F550. I only need a 3'' or 4'' lift.

    Alaskan Camper Build Up

    How hard was the wireless backup? Is the black wire the power feed? Can you use the driving light power? I know you would have to have lights on for it to work. Alot of lights stay on anyway.
