well i am a fan of lifted trucks but that one is a 2wd, i would leave it the way it is, or do the leveling and 31s. i dont like the way f150s like ours look lowered. it all comes down to what you personally like.

ive thought about leavin it like it is but i hate how the body slants down. i like the idea of it being lifted cause our older model fords look mean when they are lifted. and ive been trying to figure out a good sounding exhaust for the 5.0 too but im having a hard time makin up my mind

well for the exhaust i would either do duals or what i did is use 2.25" straight pipe all the way back. took converter out. i have the 5.8. my mustang has the 5.0 HO and i have true duals with straight pipes and it sounds sick as hell

Alright. Im thinking about shorty headers, hi-flow cats and straights on it. Did you notice any power loss with the straight pipes?

not at all. i made my own cold air intake so they go hand and hand. i have great throttle responce and it moves when i want it to. seems i gained a few HP from exhaust. then with intake seems better
