ttb f150s worth it?

[swynx]

gonna go look at new to me trucks. dont want a cheby. im a ford fan. wanting to go fullsize. i m also a ttb fan. want a v8. preferably a 351. and a stick shift eith 4x4. wanting to run 36 inch maybe 37s.

dont know alot of people with ttb f150s that are lifted. so hows everythin hold up under the abuse? im pretty easy on the skinny pedal.

also how expensive are parts? i saw that a rc 6 inch lift was like 500 bucksso that aspect wasnt bad.

and im assuming you can get these to flex like you can a ranher ttb.

I wouldn't imagine that a D44 TTB could be any worse than a D35 TTB. Never had any serious problems with my D28 or D35 and the D44 is the next step up.

It's on par with any other D44, just is in TTB form. Most of the same issues with lift kits still apply (the too-short drop pitman arms for example), but the fixes you read about here can be applied to it just the same.
TTB lift brackets on many kits have a knack for cracking the truck's frame, which is something not seen as often on RBV versions. Skyjacker's Class II kits however are again the ones to get if you want to avoid such issues.

I wouldn't suggest bigger than 35" tires on a D44 under a fullsize.
