FAQ's:

-Why did I receive a spacer that is not as thick as the lift that I ordered?
We market our kits by the amount of lift that will be gained and not the thickness of the spacer. Due to the geometry of your truck’s suspension, the suspension will be lifted by a significantly larger amount than the strut spacer is thick, in many cases as much as double. We strive to offer the maximum amount of lift possible with the minimum alterations to your vehicle so as not to compromise ride quality or reliability.

-Do I need longer shocks with this kit?
Longer shocks are not required for this kit. Vehicle manufacturers do, however, recommend that shocks be replaced in intervals as low as 50,000 miles. If your shocks have high miles, it is recommended to replace them while installing the lift kit.

-Why am I lifting the truck higher in the front?
We offer many kits with a greater front lift to compensate for the truck’s factory rake, which is the tendency for the rear to sit higher than the front. By installing a kit with a higher front lift, your truck will ultimately sit more level. Check out our other auctions for kits with alternative lifting heights.

-Do I need an alignment after installing this kit?
Whenever the suspension of a vehicle is altered, it is always recommended to perform an alignment to ensure proper handling and to prevent premature tire wear.

2007 Ford F150 Transcript: Hey folks, Tim from Supreme Suspensions here. There is no nameplate more ubiquitous to the American automotive landscape than the Ford F-Series. If you’ve been reading my blog, you’ll notice that there’s quite a bit of buzz about the all-new aluminium model that’s out right now.

With us today is a 2007 half-ton version, better known as the F-150. It’s got a 5.4 liter engine, it’s got big, meaty tires on it, and it’s still got a lot of life left in it so let’s roll it in the shop and beef it up a little.

Today we’ll be installing a set of billet leveling spacers in the front with some lift blocks along with some extended U-bolts out back.

First, you’ll want to get the truck in the air and drop the wheels.

Than, you’ll pop the tie rod out of the steering knuckle.

With the brake line still connected, pull the caliper and secure it out of the way with a piece of wire.

Disconnect the swaybar from the end link.

Remove the upper ball joint and pop it loose from the steering knuckle.

Unbolt the strut from the lower control arm. That nut is on there pretty good so it’ll take some force to break it loose.

Undo the three upper strut mount bolts.

Carefully pull the strut assembly down and out of the truck.

Over at the bench, install the leveling spacer onto the strut assembly using supplied hardware and thread locker. Run those nuts down to 35 foot pounds.

Wiggle the strut back into the truck and tighten the upper nuts to 35 foot pounds.

Attach the strut to the lower control arm and tighten the bolt to 350 foot pounds.

Connect the tie rod to the steering knuckle and tighten the nut to 111 foot pounds.

Attach the upper ball joint to the knuckle and run the nut down to 85 foot pounds.

Attach the brake caliper and tighten the bolts to 148 foot pounds.

Moving to the back, support the axle and remove the shock absorbers.
Remove the U-bolt nuts and backing plates from under the axle.

Remove the factory U-bolts and gently lower the axle.

Install the included lift blocks between the axle and the spring packs with the alignment pins facing downward.

Install the included U-Bolts and the factory U-bolt plates.

Tighten the nuts in four stages: 26 foot pounds on the first pass, 53 foot pounds on the second, 74 foot pounds on the third, and 98 foot pounds on the final pass.

Install the shocks and tighten the upper and lower bolts to 66 foot pounds.

Install the wheels and run the lugs down to 150 foot pounds. Verify that nothing in the suspension is binding or rubbing before lowering the vehicle.

Okay, so today we installed a three inch kit in the front and two inch in the back. And while we were at it, we installed a set of Bilstein shocks and struts to help control that ride a little bit. So let’s go have some fun.
