Thanks! Good luck with your build!


I haven't really done anything in a while so I spend a bit of time cleaning up the engine:

After a year of these lights being bolted to my bumper, I finally wired them in.

Great looking truck!

One question, what are the dimensions on those 2015 F150 emblems?

Thank you, the 2015 emblems are huge lol. They are 10.5" long and 2" tall. Stock was something like 7.5" long by 2.25" tall.

Cool truck, nice looking German Shepherd too! I've got to take some shots of my F150 and GSD.

Thank you!


I also got new Powerstop calipers with Z36 towing brakes and drilled / slotted rotors for an '02 Expedition on the truck.
