2005 Ford F-150 Prerunner - Locked And Loaded

Here, you can also get a glimpse of the JBA after-cat exhaust system that was installed by FMS Performance of San Bernardino, California, in a custom fashion to clear the mounting location of the rear shocks.

Getting down in the dirt reveals the rear suspension of the Ford. The rear portion of the CST 7-inch 2WD suspension system comes with a choice of either a set of Deaver Spring or Atlas Spring leaf springs, 3-inch fabricated lift blocks with the F-150 double-pin, and CST performance rear shocks. This truck has, of course, been upgraded to accommodate the Fox bypass shocks, and a custom axle gusset has been added as well to ensure that everything is strong and secure.

If you look straight down the center of the bed you will notice two small rails that have been added to the 'cage which are purposely built to carry a motorcycle while keeping both spare tires in place.

The 5.4L V-8 powerplant of this Ford has been left pretty much stock at this point. CST has been focusing its attention elsewhere as you have seen. This truck has been equipped with a set of JBA ceramic-coated headers and after-cat exhaust system. If you keep an eye out for this truck, we're sure it won't be long before you see it at a race or show with more goodies under the hood.

A closer inspection of the front suspension reveals the custom-fabricated spindle and Fox racing coilover.

A precision-cut hole was made to provide enough clearance necessary for the rear bypass shocks. The addition of a three-tube bypass shock gives you infinite adjustability on and off the trails.

Just behind the bumper is a set of T-Rex mesh billet grilles that have been notched to accept the front bumper.
