21 Platinum PB w/CCD Leveled on 34s

[chill_will]

I’ve really gotten a lot out of this forum through my whole ordering and build process so figured I’d post my build so far. Feel free to ask any questions!

‘21 Platinum PB 4x4 w/CCD and scales iconic silver
- ReadyLift 2” front leveling kit
-Fuel Siege 20x9 +20 offset wheels
-295/60 R20 Nitto Recon Grappler
-Full exterior/interior 10yr triple Ceramic Pro coat
-Front windows 25% ceramic tint
-Rydonair 7” antenna
-Bak X4S tonneau cover
-Front emblem black/silver overlay
-Tailgate ABS black platinum inserts
-Bully 4.5” black exhaust tip
-Husky wheel well liners
-Added the FX4 all weather mats with my FordPass points
-4x4 decal delete

So far I’ve been exceptionally pleased with ride quality and functionality. The only issue was having to get the dealer to reset the suspension sensors after my level, which both the CCD and scales rely on. Note: scales taillight function shown in last photo.

This is my first time running LT tires and the Recons have been surprisingly quiet and provide much more handling capability. MPG hit has been around 2 mpg and hybrid functionality impact has been minimal. I can still average around 22+ in the city and 18-20 highway (Texas has fast highways ?). 20% electric miles on most trips. I expect these numbers to be a little better come summer.

The X4S tonneau cover has been a much better experience than my old bakflip cover when hauling hay and other cargo since it allows visibility out the back window in the fully open position. I highly recommend it.

The ceramic coating has been exceptional as well. Absolutely no need for windshield wipers. I’ve driven through some hard rains and the rain flys right off on impact. It’s quite amazing.

I’m still considering some more chrome delete options and adding some taillight tint to match the tremor/raptor style. Other than that, the silver bullet is about done.

Love the truck! I run the same tires, what psi do you run yours at?

Run em at 40 cold. Usually heat up to 42. I had reached out to Nitto awhile back and they recommended 42 as the daily driver psi. They do feel a bit better on extra cold days when they are closer to 38 but I haven’t aired down to see what the mpg hit would be 2 psi lower.

Ok great! Appreciate the response!

Great looking truck, thanks for all the info.
Do you have BlueCruise? I plan on leveling mine out but am wondering if the dealer will recalibrate everything once the level is done since the system relies on cameras heavily.
Would love your thoughts.

Thanks! I do have blue cruise and the level hasn’t affected it at all. I don’t believe calibration is needed on a level. Only on lifts. All features are still functional and work well.

Did you have to cut your wheel well liners to get them to fit?

Just the passenger side.

Looks awesome!
How did you work out the exhaust tip fitment? I understand the OD of the exhaust is 3-1/8" and not many (if any) fit that.
Thanks

Thanks! I went with the bully tip which is 4.5” so it slid over the stock exhaust pipe fine. All I did was remove the chrome tip and cut the pipe back. The bully tip is just bolted on and looks good. Haven’t had any issues with the tip. I also think the bigger 4.5” size looks better with the larger tire setup.
