Well just got finished and will go to alignment shop in the morning.

I will have to change the rear shackles as I read the instructions wrong and put OEM back instead of the lift shackles so I’m 1” lower in the rear than I want. I’m a 3/6 now.
The nut on the lower ball joint stripped on me and I had to go buy a new lower ball joint to get the nut.

Awesome!
What kit did you use?
Your truck looks awesome :)

I used the IHC Ride Kit based on the research I did plus feedback from a few members here.
Headed to the alignment shop now and I need to check on my air bags as I fixed couple leaks last night.

it’s a bit lower than I really want to go but there doesn’t seem to be anything for a smaller drop.

several 2/4 kits available if you didnt want 3/6. Maxtrac comes to mind. Looks good at current ride height.

Nice truck and very nice stance. How would I go about lowering the rear end of my Powerboost? I've never seen or heard of one on here as of yet. Again great looking truck.

i don’t know if the powerboost option changes the way the rear suspension is constructed or not so you would need to verify.
i used the maxtrac flip kit for the 2020 F150s, added 1” lift shackles, and sourced billstein shocks. trucks rides great. it doesn’t bounce up and down like the factory ride and it definitely isn’t stiff.
for the front i used bell tech adjustable struts. they have metal collars that allow you to select how low to go.
i plan on typing up a list and posting it in my own thread here soon…i have done quite a few things to it.
