    They are procomp shocks for a 3 inch lift.
    And the rims are ballistic jesters rims that I customized a bit.

    I've always done the same, but mostly by hand with a ratchet.

    The battery tie-down wouldn't fit when I tried to install it with the handle down. I was in a hurry but I'll see if I can reinstall it with the handle beneath the tie-down. Anyone else on here with a X2 or Northstar 27F have this problem?

    Thanks! I used a 1/4" strip of duct tape around the bulb and it worked great!

    Now to buy some 7.5a fuses....

    your going to love them I just put the same thing on mine. set at 0 it only gave me 1.5" lift so I took them apart and moved the clip to .85 and got 2.5" they suggest not going any more than that but it gave me what I was looking for and they ride and handle great. let me know how you like them

    I mean… it’s a Ford, you don’t care
    buy new long bolts, cut the old ones out. It took me forever to remove them.

    Thanks. Wouldn't mind imitating this look with a twist on the color of the rims.

    I have a group 31. Cut mine off to accommodate the pelfrybilt tray top.
    Are you running aftermarket suspension? Stock? Hard to say, need more information.

    I had a clunk show up after my lift, only on rough streets/potholes (abrupt minimal travel, not on offroad longer shock travel instances). I think its a lower control arm bushing since one of the bolts was seized when I did the alignment. after a couple weeks I put the sway bar back on and the clunk went away, so I've been putting off burning out the stock bushings :anonymous:

    Didn't do this today, sort of a delayed post I'm afraid. Installed a DiamondBack bed cover. I love this thing! Safe, secure storage and everything is out of sight. I can either remove the panels for larger items in about a minute or take the whole thing off in about 15 minutes. I got the bedliner finish and it's been really durable. I have a small leak I need to address, just haven't gotten around to calling DiamondBack.
