Help me accessorize
Hi all,
I have a pretty much bone stock 2011 F350 Crew LB 4x4 Lariat, Tuxedo White.
Had it long enough that I need to make it mine. I don't want to do too much to violate warranties, however (I know, I'm a p*ss). That and we might be getting a 5th wheel.
Here's kind of where I'm going:
Got suggests as what to get and what else?

Here's kind of where I'm going:
- leveling kit
- wheels
- tires
- shocks
- lights
- light bar
- 250 air dam

Maybe it's the 2x4 air dam. The shorter one anyway...

Thanks guys. Keep em coming.
Haven't decided on how big fifth wheel. Might just make it a TT so I don't loose the bed.
I kind like the N-Fab Prerunner for the light bar. Wish it had a bit bigger diameter tubes though.

Not certain you will need airbags for your F350. It just depends on what you plan to tow. Airbags simply help to level the vehicle, it does not increase the rigs ability to carry more weight.
We installed Firestone Ride Rite airbags on our F250 to level the truck when towing our 12,000+ lbs fifth wheel. My brother in law tows a 5'er that weights just a bit more then mine with a 2011 F350 without airbags and it sits nice and level.
I routed the air hoses to the rear bumper at either side of the license plate. A few pumps on each line with a bike air pump gets me to the 45 to 50 lbs I need to make the truck level with the 5'er hitched.
Hope this helps.

WEATHER GUARD Saddle Box
If you go the TT route, then I recommend a WEATHER GUARD Saddle Box. They are built to last...and are just great quality for the value.
Currently...loving mine!
