I'm still holding out hope, that one of these times I will see a lift and new wheels/tires on that truck.

Hope is alright but definitely don't hold your breath because I don't want you to die But what's wrong with my wheels? The only way I'll lift it is with coil spring superduty axles and if I'm going that far might as well strip the frame and re finish it and if I'm going to take the cab and bed off might as well strip those and re paint the entire truck. So for me it's just not a simple throw a lift kit on lol! Even if I just put a lift kit on it would be a small 4" because honestly I'm not a big lifted truck kinda person. In theory 8" of lift is all cool but reality hits and there's no way I want to climb in and out of that all day. My brother in laws 2014 has a 6" lift and whenever I drive it that big step in and out gets old real quick. Maybe I'm just turning into an old man at 23 lol!

I for one don't think you should lift her. those old trucks just look so purposeful, Id leave her. You've got a sweet unique truck there.

I like stock with a level. Much lift and the truck is just a pain to use. I got over the lift phase a long time ago

Installed PTM flares and running boards from a 2013 F150. One of the only 04-08 FX2's that you will see with PTM flares:
