This is absolutely my blueprint. Nice work! Suspension mods? Cutting or rubbing issues?

What did you have to modify on the Bushwackers? Anything worth noting? Definitely appreciate the details. Thanks for posting!

Just ordered the AMP boards. This was the biggest thing we missed moving from the King Ranch PowerBoost, and now we'll have them. Thanks for posting.

I ordered these wheels and tires and just a note of interest, I'm being told that the TPMS sensors are unique to the Lightning and are not standard F150. I'm going to keep my stock Lariat wheels for winter duty and I guess I'll try to swap the sensors for now and buy a new set when they become available.

The listed weight of this aftermarket wheel / tire combo is incorrect. Closer to 83 pounds for the Shelby CS45 and the Toyo Proxes.

I received 10% on boards so I jumped at $1,799+ tax. I figure on my pro I have 13k to play with to get to XLT level, without their shit I don’t care about like cloth and carpet. Only thing I’m missing is the front and rear light bars. The rest of the higher trims I can go without.

How does a civilian get this discount?

I ended up canceling that order due to January delivery date. It was through American trucks and they price matched a NAPA online discount for the same steps. Seem like it’s always best to contact a sales person at these places instead of just ordering online.

Where did you pick them up? I'm super interested myself but dont want to worry about a messed speedometer and range, any idea if this effects that and potential solutions if it does?

I’ll know more once I get the truck.

I’ll do a bit more research on the regular F150 forums, but wondering if these steps come out to a different step point than the attached boards. I very much dislike the attached standard ones on my Lightning. Would prefer if they came out further if not out and down for others who get in the truck.

These steps come down and out farther than the stock ones. They do require a little bit of modification to get the driver’s side motor to clear but nothing major. AMP is coming out with a set specific to the Lightning though which means they don’t warranty these on a Lightning.

AMP has a specific one now but only the XL step that I’ve seen. That one drops about 3” lower than the normal AMP steps. Too low unless I wanted to lift the truck further imo.

They haven’t released the regular set yet. I spoke with them Friday and they are waiting for parts to release it.
