This is how the truck was when I got her about a month ago. I've got pretty big plans for this beauty. Plans are to crank up my torsion bars and level it out and put new wheels and tires on first.




After that the plan is:

Dual Exhaust 45ed
Paint Bumpers & Grille surround black.
Darker tint
Black Lightning Headlights & Taillights
Lightning Grille
Lights behind the grille
Westin black and chrome bull bar with lights
3" body lift
Rhino-Line underbody
35's
4.10 gears F&R
SCT Programmer
LED interior lights
Clean up and paint engine bay
Bigger Brakes
King Ranch Seats and Consoles

Then remove BL and put on 6" suspension lift (haven't decided what brand yet.)

I'm sure there will be more, but thats all that I can think of right now.
This thread will be updated weekly as the funds trickle in.

 

Getting used wheels and tires tomorrow. Also, Lightning Grille with China-mart offroad lights behind. will post pics.

 

Got my wheels and tires put on today.
33x12.50x20 Mud grapplers 40% tread left on them.
20x10 MB somethings I got a REALLY good deal on them.

I also got my lightning grille and lights put behind them.

All in all it was a pretty good day. I think it's lookin pretty good thus far.

 

I really like those wheels man, looks real good!

 

Anyone think I should remove the Ford emblem on the grille?

 

I like the blue oval, it's classy.

 

Ptm your grill surround itll look 100x cleaner.

 

Plasti Dipped my wheels and emblems the other day. I like the wheels black, but I think I need to break up the black a bit. I got a couple good ideas from another thread. Like, leaving the center caps, bolts and lip chrome. I'll prolly end up doing that. I would really like to leave the white and tan paint, then black front and back bumpers, step bars and rear view mirrors and darker tint and have chrome accents like my pipes, grille, skid plate (after its lifted), Diamond plate panel in place of gap guard under the body, ect...

I plan on leaving the pinstripe and lariat sticker. I like em. I may remove the door moldings, but I'm aomost afraid to see what's underneath. lol

 

I got some Duplicolor and clear in oxford white. I'm gonna PTM my grille surround and mirrors. Soon to come. I'll do it all when i put that body lift on.

 

Your gonna PTM the whole mirror? Most just PTM the mirror cap but yours already is.

I agree with the grille surround, that would look a lot better PTM

Also that's not a lightning grille, just a billet.

And I really liked it with the wheels chrome, it looked good, the black don't seem to work.

But you've got a good lookin truck, I like the wheel/tire setup, kinda streety wheels with mud tires, looks good
