You don't have to remove the sway bar or tie rod nuts either as they show in the video.

So all of you that did mid perch, what have you come up with after driving it for a while as far as negatives and positive attributes to the ride .

So far only one guy said he felt the down travel was limited and was harsh when the wheel dropped down compared to stock low perch. Can anybody REALLY CONFIRM that the truck was designed to ride mid perch but then had to be set on the lower perch for height requirements by DOT or whatever. I just want to know if it was really designed around the mid perch setting and the engineers thought that was the bets setup?

I really doubt anyone from Ford or Fox would confirm this. Ford is not helpful and I suspect Fox would be constrained from saying anything overtly helpful. So we just take the rumor at face value.

So I'm gonna guess this raises the roofline of the cab about 2 inches total? I'm on the fence doing this as I probably won't clear my garage anymore.
