Spacer lift on 2017 Limited

[tcbrad98]

I’ve searched, but I have not found it so if anyone can point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.

Is there a how to/ recommended install for a spacer lift?

3 inch in the front and 2 inch in the back.

I watched a couple YouTube videos, but wanted to see if there was any tips or advice on the forum and was unable to find it when searching.

I’m not new to this. I had a Nissan Xterra Pro-4x with 3 inch lift, programmer, airbags and did all the maintenance/upgrades myself previously, so I’m familiar with the process.

Just want to see if there’s anything that will trip me up along the way.

Not, difficult other than the torque requirements from ford.
Lower shock bolts front and rear 406 foot pounds.
Rear control arm at frame 266 foot pounds.
I did mine in the driveway on jack stands, but if you have access to a lift your life would be so much easier.
Watch video's on changing struts, same process just adding spacer on top of strut.

Yeah, gonna have to recalculate, even with a cheater pipe we could not break loose the bolt on the rear shocks so I may need to make friends with someone who has a lift so that I can get under it instead of on Jack stands laying on my back
