Summit Racing Shows You How to Upgrade Your Late Model Ford F-150

We can’t remember a time when the Ford F-Series wasn’t the best-selling pickup in the USA. So when we decided to do a project truck the choice was pretty obvious.

We got our mitts on a 2019 F-150 Crew Cab 4x4 with a 5.0L Coyote and the STX appearance package. The mission: to demonstrate how easy it is to personalize a truck with bolt-on parts anyone with a decent tool box can install at home. What’s more, we made installation videos to guide you through the process.

Here are the parts we used on our F-150:
