Whitey Ford Sings The Blues
Well I just spent a horrid amount of money today on my truck.
So begins the "build" thread. I am taking a week off from work next month to have some fun putting this stuff on; it cannot come soon enough.
What's on order:
Icon Stage II lift (shipped already minus coilovers, thanks Alex @F150Lifts.com)
F150Lifts.com 2.5" rear blocks w/ hardware (shipped already)
Pro Comp 7036 18x9's (shipped already)
Kelly TSR 275/70R18's (shipped already)
FoMoCo TPMS sensors (shipped already)
Ready Lift tie rods
Crown stainless steel brake lines
SDHQ ABS protectors
Livewire TS with 3 tunes from 5*
Edge CTS dash mount (going to mod it to work with the TS)
Future plans: (subject to change at anytime)
RCI skid plates
4:10 Gears + E-Locker/LS Rear
G2 Brute F&R Diff Covers
MSD Coils
Volant CAI
BBK 75MM TB
Jet MAF
Stainless Works Longtubes + True Duals
Black OEM HIDs
Spyder BLK/CRYS LED Rears
American Tonneau 3-Fold
Lund SX Flares
Line-X
OEM BLK C Clamp Grill
(down the road maybe some comp cams and rebuild/machined heads)

I have most everything except the coilovers. I get the programmer and tie rods today and the brake lines on Monday. I also ordered the RCI skid plates; awaiting those.
My apartment has parts everywhere. Here are some crappy phone pics.

I got the wheels put on today. They look great but I definitely need some flares. Only rubs in reverse at full lock. I should have no issues when the suspension is on. I will take a couple of pics tomorrow.
Skid plates shipped and I picked up the flares from JCWhitney for about $220 vs. the $320+ everywhere else.
Going to hook up the programmer tomorrow as well.
