I had to remove the locks from the doors of my scab parts truck and put them in my new screw to match the ignition key
I left it all in there I took off the right bolt (closer to the cab) then looked at the other one and put the first back on and grabbed my needle nose pliers

I negotiated to buy it. I've had a 1971 F-100, a 2004 F-150 and a 2008 F-150. My daily driver is a 2014 Fiesta ST. The 2001 F-150 will be my winter beater and work truck. Tomorrow, we'll wrap up the purchase. The latest F-150 in the family is a 2001 Supercab 4x4 with 111,000 miles on it. My other set of wheels is a 43 ft diesel motor home. My wife drives a 2011 Lincoln MKT with the 3.5 Ecoboost engine. We do like our Fords

Its a 20ft Mako cc but the heavy part is the double beam double axel galvanized trailer. I towed it with 35's before and it wasnt the most pleasant thing ever.

I have 305/70r16s on 16x10s so im in no hurry to change those out. I suppose I would need some steps to help block the view of my frame and gas tank though.

Yeah your truck would look killer with a BL, and i would suggest steps as you said to hide the frame and tank. i need to get steps for the same reason (that and cause my wife needs to get in occasinally) haha

That would have to be a must. It sure would be a lot cheaper than a suspension lift and I would be able to keep my ride quality as is or lower my torsion bars a little and replace the rear block with an add-a-leaf to keep her level and increase my towing capacity. I would also find or make a good skid plate to go up front with more of a rake than the factory fx4's had. Damnit yall have me thinking now LOL
