Really interested in how the power boost does with the lift and tires. Looks fantastic!

I was getting around 22 mpg average with stock set up. So far averaging between 17 to 18 mpg. Dealership said it may take a little bit for the truck to adjust itself after refreshing the computer.

Long story, short....

Because of issues with my dealership's accessories department, I was forced to go in a different direction, and had a local tire shop install a 2" level kit with 275/70/18 tires instead.

Sorry that doesn't answer your question. Maybe someone else has had it done, and can provide you with an answer.
Hi. That is what I am planning with mine once it arrives. Any chance you share some pictures? What level kit did you use?

thanks.

Been doing between 14 to 19 depending on how much I grandma it and work the electric miles. Considering most F150's with a 4" lift and 35" Nitto's are getting between 11-15 i'd say the hybrid is doing better. And like the other poster said, I was told the computer will learn and it should get a hair better.

Alright I am pretty much convinced, have gotten some local quotes and think I’m going to order the BDS 4” lift. I have a set of Fuel Beast 20” wheels from my last build that should work and will likely go Toyo AT3 or BFG KO2 on the 35” tires. Truck is a Carbonized grey 157WB.

couple questions for those who have went this way.

1. Did your install get done by the dealer, and if not did the installer do the adjustments to the speedo and any other affected system?

2. I’m going to go with the Fox 2.5 CO kit, any real reason to get the adjustable set or save that money since they won’t get adjusted much anyhow?

3. Anyone go with a 4” and wish they did a 6”(or the opposite)?

last one is just cause I’m curious, 4” should be good but why not get that info too.

Yes, they did Speedo and a relearn on the other Active Assist systems. Lights auto adjust so nothing to do there.

2. I’m going to go with the Fox 2.5 CO kit, any real reason to get the adjustable set or save that money since they won’t get adjusted much anyhow?

I went with a base 4" BDS with FOX 2.0's in the back to keep as close to a OEM ride quality as possible and so far its been fantastic. And assume the adjustable C/O's would rarely get adjusted but the non-adjustable will definitely be stiffer then factory ride. If your going to off-road a lot you probably don't need to get the adjustable. If your going to be on road a lot and then off road a little it may be very nice to have the adjustable so they can stay softer while on road.

3. Anyone go with a 4” and wish they did a 6”(or the opposite)?

Nope. 4" is actually solidly high but fits into my garage by just about an inch height wise. 6" and it ain't getting in:
