Black Ford F-150 photographed after its APG Customs suspension build

From the APG shop / Ford F-150

Six inches.
More than a lift.

A customer-supplied Rough Country lift brought the height. APG installed the Vertex reservoir shocks and freshened the suspension and steering with new control arms and tie rods.

The work

A lift with the supporting parts in mind.

This F-150 arrived with a 6-inch Rough Country kit supplied by its owner. APG handled the installation, including the Vertex reservoir shocks shown below. The work also included new upper and lower control arms and new tie rods to freshen the suspension and steering.

The finished photo shows the taller stance. The wheel-well photo gets closer to the hardware that made this a more involved install than a change in ride height alone.

Build notes / 02

Look past the stance.

The Vertex reservoir is visible beside the suspension hardware in this close-up. It is one part of the customer-supplied Rough Country lift package APG installed on this truck.
