Talking New guy here.

Just figured I'd introduce myself and my stock '94 F-150 xlt. Heres some pics. I just lost my cobra a few months ago which is a good thing I guess, so I can get all my attention focused back on my truck. Buying some tires for it monday. Either Firestone Firehawk Indy 500's or some bf goodrich radial t/a's. Goin with a 275/60r15 in the back and probably a lil thinner in the front. Maybe...Wanna lower it to. NOT "SLAM" IT or anything like that. Thinking maybe 2" in the front and 3" in the rear. Well enjoy the pics. These are all I have access to right now cause I'm on my wifes comp. Later.

Nice color combo! Never seen it before. Check out hackersmovie's thread on lowered trucks, 2 inches is supposed to be a cheap date!

yea, umm, about that. It was a 98 Mustang cobra. 84,000 miles. Bought it from my dads friend for $7900. Drove it back from sc to va where I'm stationed and parked it at the house. Drove it 5 miles to work and on my way home back from work she started knocking. Took it to a few places and they were all willing to bet it was a rod. Dropped it off at a reputable authorized "ford racing" mechanic and he tore it apart for me and it had spun a rod bearing and bent 3 rods. So he put a '01 cobra motor in it (well just the block mainly) and used my heads and wala. He told me if I wanted a clutch or headers or anything like that nows the time to do it cause he wouldn't charge me labor since everything was outta the car. So I got him to put in a new clutch and ceramic coated BBK longtube headers. $3649.83 later i had my car back. 3 weeks after getting it outta the shop, I'm on my way to work and some b**** cuts me off in an 05 gt while merging on to the interstate (came around me from the left, on an on ramp, and swerved in front of me) and slammed on the brakes. Well the front right of my car hit the back left of her car and I guess the angle i hit her at was a pretty bad one cause at only 15mph my car was a total loss because the frame shifted. Yes, 15mph. Airbags didnt go off. Fenders werent bent. Lost two headlights and pushed my hood back and it was a total loss

Cheap & easy. But if she's only getting 2 inches, you should at least buy her a drink!
