so, lifted F150s are like the kings of the road, right? But, they come with their own set of headaches. I’ve had mine for a bit now, and let me tell ya, watch out for suspension issues. those kits can mess up alignment big time, and that’s not fun when your truck starts pulling like it’s got a mind of its own.
And then there’s the driveline. I’ve heard stories of folks snapping drive shafts cause they didn’t adjust them after lifting. also, don’t forget about the brake lines, man. they tend to stretch and can give you a nasty surprise when you hit the brakes too hard.
ever thought about how tire wear can be a thing too? it’s like, if you don’t rotate 'em, you’ll need new ones faster than you can say “mud pit.” you guys had any trouble with this stuff or what?
I’ve had my lifted F150 for a couple years now and honestly the biggest issues are definitely alignment and the steering. Mine pulls to the right sometimes and its super annoying.
Then there’s that weird vibration at higher speeds that I can’t figure out.
I’ve owned a lifted F150 up in Michigan and man the suspension issues can sneak up on ya. I’ve had to replace bushings more than I thought I would.
Don’t get me started on the alignment too like if you lift it wrong tires wear out quicker.
Still love the look tho especially in the snow. Just gotta keep checking everything often.
Lifted my F150 in Colorado once and the steering got all wonky after. Just gotta watch for alignment issues.
I’ve noticed those lifted shocks wear out quicker too. Kinda annoying but looks cool I guess.
I’ve had my F150 lifted up here in Michigan and while it looks great I’ve noticed some concerns. The steering tends to get a bit shaky especially on rough roads which can be annoying. And the bottoming out is real if you hit a bump too fast. I also keep an eye on the alignment since it shifts more after lifting. It’s a wild ride though not gonna lie.
Had an F150 in Michigan once and the lift kit caused all sorts of alignment issues didn’t realize till too late.
Also brakes wear out way faster than I expected.
I’ve noticed that lifted F150s can really mess with alignment over time. Had a buddy in Texas who dropped a ton of cash on wheels and tires just to find out he needed to fix the steering issues caused by the lift. Not cool.
Also I have seen some folks struggle with the mpg dropping like a rock too. It’s one wild ride though not gonna lie.
Ive noticed some crazy alignment issues with lifted F150s driving around Seattle. That suspension tweak can really mess with handling sometimes. Just saying.
Also the drive shafts can wear down quicker. My buddy had to replace his after a year. Major headache.
I’ve got a lifted F150 in Texas and trust me the steering issues are no joke. Wobble city on rough roads.
I have also run into suspension problems especially if you’re off-roading. Those stock parts really can’t handle the lift.
And don’t get me started on gas mileage it’s like my truck is drinking a whole keg on long trips. Just something to think about.
Ive had my lifted F150 for a couple years now and man the alignment issues are real especially here in Colorado with the rough terrain.
Also the drivetrain sometimes acts funny like it doesn’t wanna shift right. Definitely keeps ya on your toes.
I’ve owned a lifted F150 in Texas for a few years and the suspension issues started creeping up sooner than I thought. The steering can get a bit wobbly sometimes and alignment just seems like a never-ending battle.
Also the fuel economy takes a major hit especially with those bigger tires so gotta keep that in mind when filling up. Just something about those lifted rides that makes me feel more connected to the road though
I’ve always loved lifted F150s like my buddy’s one in Texas. They look awesome but man the steering issues can drive you nuts.
I’ve noticed after a while the alignment goes outta whack especially if you go offroad a lot. Also the driveshaft vibrations can be fun if by fun you mean super annoying. Just something to keep in mind.
I’ve seen a lot of folks lift their F150s around here in Texas and it’s kinda cool but you gotta watch those CV joints. They can wear out fast if you’re not careful.
Also the alignment gets thrown off easy which leads to uneven tire wear like you wouldn’t believe.
I’ve had a lifted F150 in Colorado for a few years now and the steering issues are real.
Also keep an eye on those ball joints they wear out quicker than you think.
But man the looks make it worth it sometimes.
I ve seen a few lifted F150s around here in Texas and the alignment issues pop up all the time. It s like they think bigger tires fix everything but nah.
My buddy had one and it ate through ball joints like candy. Kinda wild how people underestimate steering problems with those lifts. Not for the faint of heart.
I ve seen a lifted F150 in BC and the owner complained about the steering issues real headache to deal with
also watch out for alignment problems they creep up quick
i remember my buddy lifted his F150 in Texas and had suspension issues right after it looked cool but was a hassle
be careful with alignment and vibrations I ve heard it can ruin the ride quality real fast
Lifted my F150 last year in Texas and man it looks great but I’ve had issues with the alignment pulling to one side. Gotta keep an eye on those ball joints too
I ve noticed my friend in Canada has a similar problem with his lifted truck. It’s wild how these tiny issues pop up outta nowhere. Just gotta stay on top of it
Lifted my F150 in Texas had a blast but I’ve seen issues like steering wobble and alignment problems it can be a real headache.
Just keep an eye on those ball joints and shocks they wear out faster. Handling feels different too especially on highways.
had a lifted F150 in Texas and the suspension issues were a nightmare. the alignment kept going out every few months.
also noticed the fuel efficiency really dropped after the lift. looks cool but the trade-offs kinda suck sometimes. just saying.
the ride was bumpy too.
