F-150 Aftermarket

**40thGT** · 11-30-2013, 10:06 PM

Well I bought a 2013 F-150 a little over a month ago. This is the first truck I've owned that is worth putting money into. I am pretty unfamiliar with the truck aftermarket, so I'm looking for good advice on where to buy aftermarket stuff and also who in the area is good for installs for truck stuff like lift kits, performance upgrades, and all that good stuff. Thanks!

Are you considering a full lift or just a level? I leveled mine and it's killing the CV angle on the front left. Putting it in 4x4 just shatters the IWE, Ford fixed it once and the next time they denied it. Everyone gets different results. From conversations with Autospring, I wouldn't buy from them again they were far too arrogant for my tastes.

There's a few 4x4 shops around, no clue on their reputations or work. Never went extreme, just stuff I could do in my own garage.

I don't plan on doing a lift kit at least until the warranty expires. I think for now I'm looking more for some minor performance upgrades, maybe a bull bar or brush guard. I definitely want to get some aftermarket lighting. I'm more or less just looking for a 4x4 shop to go look at what my options are and sort of come up with a game plan for mods.

Put a supercharger on it...you will not regret it...and Roush offers a 3 year 36000 mile warranty with theirs...not sure about the others on warranty. I would if I could afford it....but my 2012 will stay stock for a long time, lol
