This will be a post for some of the nicer trucks I’ve built in the past year, and continuing onward.

Some will have before and afters, some just afters because I’m lazy, and if your in the GTA of Ontario, I can always help price parts or do the work for you.

I work in a shop and build custom trucks, so of course the imagination went rampant as soon as I got this one in to my store. 2013 Ford F-150 Ecoboost FX4 Package. I put on Bushwacker Pocket Style Flares, and threw on a Paramount Raptor look-a-like grille. It wasn’t anything nice, but I thought it would give it a bit of beef.



I knew that I wasn’t going to get anything nicer for beefy tires, so I figured – lift it, get some offset rims and throw some 35” Toyo AT2 Extreeme tires.. Ain’t a point of lifting without getting some performance.
Fabtech was the choice with their performance series 6” lift



Awh yisss... Mothaflippin crossmembers

Straight as an arrow.


As soon as she was done, I was pretty disappointed to be honest. It looked like everyone else’s lifted trucks, but I was stuck with not having much options. Eco-boost have a restrictive air dam that CANNOT be obstructed without problems. Steel bumpers were out of the question because let’s be honest, it’s not a three quarter tonne.
The grille was absurd too, it whistled like a bird at highway speeds so I tore it out shortly.


The economy was awesome but man did it lack some kick with weight in it. Got a Bullydog to cure that!

When you need more power, and got your tuner – get more AIRFLOW!
I Got the AFE Momentum stage 2 Dual Intake, and slapped an dual MBRP exhaust. Still sounds like a V6, but she’s got some bite to her for sure.


Fuck the factory boards, replace that shit with Bestop Powerboards. Bitches love powerboards.



AS you can tell, I swapped the tires with the 35” Toyo MT tires, and found a way around the pesky air dam on the Ecoboost.
REMOVE THE WHOLE DAMN BUMPER, and slap on the sweet Pre-Runner style ADD bumpers.
All shined up and ready to have some serious fun in the dirt

The 6" fabtech is 3600ish, wheel's and tires another 2k easy, the bumper was probably 1200+
Exhaust, bullydog, intake whatever else crap was put on it

How is that not worth 2 grand?

Still fugly and a pavement queen though none the less.
I hate people that do this shit to trucks and think its ready for offroading.

Edit: I think he made a typo on the $1800 and missed a 0

Yeah most definitely a typo..

Hey, I don't choose what the customer pays for, they simply ask ha!

I can say off hand-

35x12.50 r20 Toyo MT's run $470 each
American Eagle Hardrock 015's 270 each
Fabtech Performance 6" @ 3500
Bestop Powerboards @ 1599
ADD front and back bumpers, import from Cali - 2400 USD
Bullydog 549
MBRP stainless duals 1099.95 on a crew 6.5 box
Dual intake 699.95

Theres 12807.90

Not to mention my labor rates on top - plus alignment.

Guy want's to spend it, I will build it.

Welcome to the GTA, where 9 out of 10 trucks I build are pavement only.

This thing though, was built FOR the mud. I've seen it clear some good areas up near Belleville with me.
