Default My new ride

Just picked this up. A 1995 F150, 2wd, 5.0l, Auto,3.08, little over 100k. One owner from coastal Oregon, no rust besides the chrome exhaust tips. This guy was over 90 and meticulously maintained the truck.
Front end is sagging pushing the alignment out a bit, new F250 coils should take care of that. The tires are about half tread still but are way too loud for me. I think I'm going to try some Kuhmo KL61 30x9.50's, kind of an agressive all season.
Pictures are slightly distorted....camera phone.

New springs up front....heavy duty from Oreilly. Lifted 1 1/4" and is now level front to back. Measures 33"+- to the top of the fender. Can't really notice any difference in ride quality, maybe a bit stiffer.
