Big plans for the small dollar work truck
Hey guys, I've recently decided to pour every penny I could spare into my "work truck" I've turned towards the XLT side of the F150 family. I am looking for pictures and suggestions.. I plan on lowering it a little. I am picking up a roll pan Wednesday or Thursday and may do euro tails.. If I do both it'll run me $185 or so. I've already redone the front bumper since I was in a wreck and it's now the chrome one with the black top pad and greyish valance. The rear bumper not matching is killing the truck so I decided it's gotta go, along with the cracked taillights. Soon enough I'll get a new tailgate to rid myself of dents and shave the handle and emblems. After all this I plan on bondoing the whole bed and having it repainted. The bed is the only part of the truck that's even messed up now besides a dent in the passenger door from when the truck was t-boned with the original owner. I may do Street Scene mirrors too. Obviously the truck will be a show truck when it's done.. Anyone got any suggestions or pictures they would like to share?

Maaaaaaaybe. I have to see how much that'd cost and how much stuff I'd have to do to the chassis. It looks like the 4/6 drop kit is $700.. And 2/4 drop is DEFINITELY not enough to make me happy haha! Maybe 3/5.. I kinda don't want to chop the hell out of the chassis c-notching it to bag it.. Maybe one day though hah.

I like it, in fact it's really pretty loud on the amp I have it on, the MTX MXA4002. It'll make my CD player skip really bad at about 20 of 63 on my Pioneer. Now granted I have it in a sealed box with more caulk than you can shake my broken taillight lens at. It flexes my seats pretty good. I also get window flex from it..
