Ok what is the best way to do that? Is there any type of kit or bracket i can buy? I want to maintain the strength and rigidness of my truck even if i have to notch the frame.

Whoa whoa whoa. You have a 2011, you need the f150 rear kit. It has adjustable pinion angle. And it's for our bigger axle housings. The flip kit doesn't work. Call DJM, tell them you have a 2011. It's the same for 2010. They had to make me new spring plates too.
