Got my Mid Perch adjustment done. Here are some before and after pics to help with others deciding to make the change. The truck looks and rides much better after. If it wasn't for DOT regulations, I'm pretty sure this is how it would delivered stock.

I took it to the guys who sold it to me last Saturday. The Ford Dealer here in Vegas. Funny I still remember hearing the term "Mid Perch". For some reason I thought it was some type of cage (perch, birds, cage, you get my thought process). It's great, though, just do it.

I have it done as well, and honestly, I wish I had known about it when I bought the truck and I would have had them do it for me right then and there.

Pynenut, the truck is looking good!
