Default (Miranda) 05 screw build

figured id start a build thread on my 05 fx4 super crew enjoy

How i bought her.


My first mod was adding some LinZ6 L.E.D. blue lights from Whelen because i am a firefighter.


My second mod was a leveling kit, 2" a/s soon to be replaced with bilseins.



So i had this thing that anoyed me alot, it was the faded fender flares, so i called up my local painter & he hooked me up with a deal to get em paint matched


As you can tell in last pic i also added a back rack & tool box more pics of that.


My next mod i sneaked in was a edge evo & a switch panel with a scanner

so a little update, got air bags.

& finnally got my bilsteins that i have wanted for awhile

my next step for this truck will be rims & tires, right now i have "P" rated tires & i do not like them one bit truck feels sloppy esp when towing so i will be upgrading to LT's or E rated tires soon, just have to decide on what to do for rims.

Default 255/80x17

the tire/ wheel combo looks great. I've been considering that same size tire. What is the offset on the wheel? How is the ride quality? How many mpg's did you lose?
thanx

Can you please tell me where you got your cab lights from? How you wired them, installed them, etc. PLEASE. I've been looking all over to do them and have seen trucks on here with them but no explanation or part number or company name or anything. This is something I really really want to do. Thanks!
