I am no Ford guy by any means but I have to give credit where it's due. I have driven a new 2011 F150 my buddy owns and it handles great, hauls weight fine and tows very nice. I would bet this goes for any of the Big three's half ton trucks. The brakes on them are much better that ours truck...
I would keep your 14bff in your truck now. You already have discs on it right? Parts are available everywhere in the event you did break something but it's very doubt full.
I took my bed off by myself, it was easy.
I used 1 strap in each corner and tied it to the lift arms and then hit the button on the lift, all done by myself:D
What did the dana 80 come out of? I don't think I would use rubberized undercoating, go with something harder that will last longer...
Not without some cutting. I have new 37in BFG's and I need to do some bumper and fender trimming to make them work off road. I have about a 6-7in lift over stock. My front axle is pushed forward a little bit as well to keep the wheel out of the back of the fender , and it rubs there as well.
I think the vac system worked better as well. My truck would hold 10-11lbs of boost under heavy throttle towing.
I bought the turbo master thinking I would gain something but never gained anything. I removed it after a bit and went back to the vac system.
I now run the ATT

There is a guy on the place that just had a bad vibration issue on his truck then the balancer on the rear shaft at the diff broke free. Maybe check that out.
There is nothing wrong with welding the tubes. Most guys who wheel weld the tubes when you run a traction bar or a 4 link as the center section will spin. Look at any solid axle truck and the C's on the front axle are all welded on.
I think most of them say the housing should be pre heated and...
Our front ends are stronger already. They use a strait center link which puts less stress on the idler and pitman arms.
I would skip the outer tie rod flip. In stock form it follows the arch of the lower control arm as they are about the same length. Moving it up will cause the tires to toe out...
