Definitely got lucky with the jack stands. Same thing happened to me, but the jack stands actually tipped over forward and fell. Luckily only had 1 tire off at a time, and had it under the frame as extra precaution. Glad i was taught to always do that, and now always keep the jack under the frame as well. Go get you some bigger ones. Definitely need them for trucks. $100ish is better than what almost happened
I love the look. I think leveling the rear or just a tad squat like normal would be perfect. Sucks it isn’t full height but it looks sharp. Hopefully you can get it roadworthy. Love the look. I am definitely bias to bubba setup as of lately
LARRY!!!!! He most definitely needs that rear brought up! Hopefully someone comes through for you and helps Larry get his long and much needed lift kit completed!! Great video, keep up the incredible work!
You spent all that time hunting down this elusive lift then proceed to cut it up. That pained me a little bit. Could have gotten the same height out of a brand new off the shelf lift. Now you’ll have to buy new coils or cheap out and stack leveling kits. As mentioned a handful of times, take those spindles to a machine shop or weld repair shop and they’ll fix them up easy. Do it right or do it twice. And we will all be watching when you do it a second time
Hey chase! I was thinking you could possibly see about going to a weld shop or a fabricator for the spindle height issue they could have probably helped you with the height difference by making you custom components to either extend or replace your part. I dont know if they could've salvaged the bad one but still! Great video larry looks great
add a 1.5 level!! it’ll make it have a baby lean with 6” blocks in the back. With stock upper control arms they held up pretty good and ride quality was still impressive even with 26s and 37s.
When did you buy it? Because it's just a fabtech kit with bilstein shocks. It isn't made anymore even though sites still say it's available. I bought it directly from bilstein two years ago and never got it.
I want to see bigger jack stands in the next video buddy . I seen your using a bigger jack now lol. Be safe in the garage buddy love your video keep up with the good work
The idea of the lift kit is cool, but the exicution is not so cool. Suspension kits are engineered to preform as a unit, not to be mixed and matched. The taller lift springs with the short spindles create many issues with the suspension geometry. The upper control arms don't have required travel and bottom out, the upper ball joint now has a bad angle and makes it suseptable to failure, let alone the realignment issues to bring the truck back to original specs. I have put many 6" susp kits in 4wd over the years and have learned all the issues with lifting a ifs truck. If fixing the spindles from the kit was not an option a different kit would have been a better option. Don't agree but good luck anyway.
I got the RC rear blocks, theyre 2 inch, and taller leaf springs from general spring (1900lb 4 leaf) with a total 4 inches rear, and 5 inches front lift.
Uhhh I love your videos and all but the squat is a no go doesn’t look that good would look sick with a leveling kit uhh it would look sooo good with a leveling kit on it
Avoid the jack stand issue at the end of video with putting stands facing opposite directions, that way the truck can’t shift either direction if they happen to fail.
Larry looks sick, not big on that much squat, but like you I do like a little lean. With that wollered spindal though, maybe check a couple machinists shops and see if maybe they could press a sleeve in to correct the wollerness. Idk, may seem a bit excessive but it might work?
Not sure if they make them for this Year make but what about a UCA with a bolt in ball joint and then add a ball joint spacer. Not sure if that is a just an old Toyota thing for not.
You need help from the pre runner guys . Like maby try to get a hold of Morgan Clark designs . Or some companies make weld it your self long travel kits . I just thought of this so I'll start looking and if I find any thing I'll let you know. I don't have any connections because I live in MN. Th9se guys can build anything .
Hey I have a 1998 f-150 you can but arched control arms for a 2004 bc they are the same upper control that what I did I when on ford oem and it the same part number too
you sure fabtech dont sell the spindles ? they stopped making the full lift kit years ago and the demo kit was blue but never sold it cause it was just for show

I’ve been checking my phone every 10mins for this video!
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Same here 😂
Me too me tooo
I just picked up a 98 F-150 XLT 4X4 for 500$ runs and drives, no body damage or any interior damage. Got it from a family friend so it was a steal!
I love the look. I think leveling the rear or just a tad squat like normal would be perfect. Sucks it isn’t full height but it looks sharp. Hopefully you can get it roadworthy. Love the look. I am definitely bias to bubba setup as of lately
He’s a squatted boi now
You should be able to take the two spindles to a welding shop and they should be able to fix them for you
bro i literally been checking my phone all the time lookin for more tenth gen content i love tenth gems
LARRY!!!!!

Ford has always had the best looking extended cab pickups! No to the squat, but that SoCal lean would make it look great. Add 2” to the back.
Glad to know I'm not the only one running a K/N oil filter on my 10th gen😅 Larry looks looks awesome and always will be the OG🤘
That first front shot of the reveal was so sick
I think Larry should be the squatted/clapped truck on the channel. Love the videos!
Can't wait to see what setup you get for larry next
Zone Offroad, makes a 6in lift kits. Probably would have worked better

Squatted trucks look ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. Lol 😂
Dude those Crosswinds eat. I had 35x12.50r15 on my ranger and never had any issues off-roading
Love the content man, keep up the great work
Take the knuckles to a machine shop and have them repaired. They’ll oversized the holes and press in a sleeve.
these body styles have always been my favorite and i get alot of hate for it but man lmf is that a beautiful truck
My favorite too..👍
Larry on some platinum stocks and 37 inch grapps would look great!
No
@@jeremiahcole29 yes
add a 1.5 level!! it’ll make it have a baby lean with 6” blocks in the back. With stock upper control arms they held up pretty good and ride quality was still impressive even with 26s and 37s.
Should’ve just bought a Bilstein 6” lift same one I run and didn’t have to Frankenstein anything and got bigger results
When did you buy it? Because it's just a fabtech kit with bilstein shocks. It isn't made anymore even though sites still say it's available. I bought it directly from bilstein two years ago and never got it.
PLEASE KEEP IT LIKE THIS I love this stance on Larry so legendary
I think it would look good with the blocks
I want to see bigger jack stands in the next video buddy . I seen your using a bigger jack now lol. Be safe in the garage buddy love your video keep up with the good work
I think with ucas you’d be able to stack a level and be near the height you’re looking for
You gotta get that newer front end on Larry; lights, grill, bumper etc. that thing would look so mean. Coming together nicely tho!
i been waiting for this for months!!

Where do you find such clean trucks? Been wanting to find a clean old 10th gen f150
bro i literally been checking my phone all the time lookin for more tenth gen content i love tenth gend
Hell yeah man, looks great! Keep up the good work.
Damn my dog working hard in a brooks brothers shirt
Larry is looking insane!! Cant wait for what's next
Uhhh I love your videos and all but the squat is a no go doesn’t look that good would look sick with a leveling kit uhh it would look sooo good with a leveling kit on it
Larry lookin tall as crap now son. Love it
been waiting for this one!
Need to paint those wiper arms on Larry haha come on, man!
I looked down here in sc for a ft lift for 97 03 but no luck, and ready to see some wheels on Larry
Leave the squat on Larry and put some chrome wides on it
Avoid the jack stand issue at the end of video with putting stands facing opposite directions, that way the truck can’t shift either direction if they happen to fail.
If you got a go light for it it would definitely fit in the “bubba truck” section! Would love to see it
Leave it tooted bro love the look😂
So they sell a balljoint taper sleeve maybe you could find one that fits the stock ball joint then have the spindles reemed out to fit the sleeves
Larry looks sick, not big on that much squat, but like you I do like a little lean. With that wollered spindal though, maybe check a couple machinists shops and see if maybe they could press a sleeve in to correct the wollerness. Idk, may seem a bit excessive but it might work?
Should throw the 20” wheels and graps on it 👍.
You might be able to get 5.5inch spindles to get around 8 inches of lift
Max Trac 3.5 Spindle with a 1.5 coil spacer looks the exact same.
As much as you work on trucks why do you not have 6 ton jack stands? Thats a must.
Yes now Larry is big pimping!!! Love it
Larry got that Kenny Smith knees stance in the front
Why was the crossmember flexing so much when installing the lower control arms? Is the metal thin there?
Larry looks good
Gotta do a giveaway on any truck real soon
You may could take the Spindles to a machine shop and have them repaired.
u can get lift blocks at advance auto parts or auto zone
Bro said squat😂😂 where im from that’s just a a baby lean😂😂😂
Not sure if they make them for this Year make but what about a UCA with a bolt in ball joint and then add a ball joint spacer. Not sure if that is a just an old Toyota thing for not.
honestly if it had grapps with like new chrome ford reps on grapps the squat like that would go good
been waiting on the vid forever letsss go
Control arm spacers? They make em
You should be using 6 ton jack stands working on trucks
You need help from the pre runner guys . Like maby try to get a hold of Morgan Clark designs . Or some companies make weld it your self long travel kits . I just thought of this so I'll start looking and if I find any thing I'll let you know. I don't have any connections because I live in MN. Th9se guys can build anything .
swap rear windows from the red truck to larry, think it would clean it up a bit 🫣👀
Leanin Larry!
i’m sure there’s a way you can get that spindle fixed shouldn’t be too big of a deal
go 24x14 on 5s or 5s & 6s but definitely throw some wides on there
She lookin good with that lean please leave the lean
Looks really good!!
Get the fab tec plate color matched and put it back on pls
Perfect amount of squat now
The maxxtrac kit probably would haven't you the same height. 5.5 inch lift
i want to see larry on wides when it’s fully lifted
Looks really good man
Larrys about to be sitting right
Larry is a beast!
Not my style with the squatted look but still looks sick
The squat made it look somewhat gorgeous 😳😬
Random question 🙋♂️ would u stack a level or something like that with the fab tech ?
Imagine Larry can’t get out of garage after lol
Can we hear how the red truck sounds with the flowmaster on it
Just buy 6 inch drop spindles since that’s closer to your 7 inch lift goal
What size tires are you running
Next video needs to be you buying some 6 ton stands lol
Hey I have a 1998 f-150 you can but arched control arms for a 2004 bc they are the same upper control that what I did I when on ford oem and it the same part number too
Are you parting out the red truck??
Keep up the good work👍.
Honestly throw some chrome reps on it now and let it skate 😂🤘🏻
Could you repair the spindle?
Can i use i install it on a 99 expedition a4wd?
Why couldn’t you use the lift spindles?
Maybe cut ur bump stops if it rides rough hitting them on the upper control arm
your gonna have to either get or fix the lift knuckles cuz you will never get your camber straight with the lift spindle
cool truck but side angle is weird without tint on ur back windows, weird choice
Love the look, Larry lookin like a hero truck from a action movie 💯
I don’t know if they make them for the 10th gen but my 11th gen they make 2-4 inch drop upper control arms that would help
you sure fabtech dont sell the spindles ? they stopped making the full lift kit years ago and the demo kit was blue but never sold it cause it was just for show
ryan mayer might be able to help you with what will work cause he builds trucks
Put it on stocks and grapps of wides
