at least it will be a little less funny looking than the pics alon posted a few months ago of his stock edge towing prerunner-rangers lifted on 35s truck

you did a SAS on the ranger so this means you will need to do a DAS (dump truck axle sawp) and put some crazy huge tires on. that if you decide down the road you don't want to keep it stock :p

I agree with you Beard DO NOT touch the suspension just leave it... leveling kits on those trucks and trailering is the dumbest thing ever.. when its loaded the front end is higher then the rear.. and we all know thats bad news...

just drive it and enjoy.. i would say tint the windows in the front and done...

when the tires wear out do one step up in size and call it good
i really want some front tint, but it will be a while. and i dont even know if i will go up in tire size, i like it just how it is right now.

thanks for the comments guys.

My XLT 4x4 doesn't have fogs either. If it ever gets super foggy I guess I'll have to drive the ranger haha.

Looks good... My buddy has one, and has the on board EDGE tuner unit...

Best tuner for the 5.4L's really wakes that slow v8 up...

Get those windows tinted!!

My buddy has the 2wd 04... he had the chrome steelies on there too... they dont resale worth crap.. so he has his sitting in the garage...

He got the same FX4 wheels as you did for his 2wd... Wait till you have to price out those tires.. they are expencive!!

If your looking to sell that leveling kit, send me a PM, he is looking to buy one..

Really? I had a friend that tried an Edge tuner and he said he didnt notice a thing.

I am not really looking to add anything to the truck though.

From the looks of things Zach im going to get the twin to your F150 tomorrow, the one im looking at has alittle more chrome on it tho and some kind of ugly decals, but the price is right...

You should create an F150 subforum

Looks great, and you even got one with low miles! Last week I had a rental 08 F150 I drove and I loved it.

18's look good

I wouldn't recommend the EDGE at all, I had a very bad experience w/it.

I towed an explorer once, you can cruse at 70 mph no problem w/the O/D off
