Last Friday afternoon I picked up a bunch of stuff for the F150. Soon as I got home that night I installed the hitch and 7 pin wiring. Tomorrow I take the truck to my buddy's shop (same guy that put the shorty headers on for me) and he's gonna put all new brakes all around (including calipers - I don't believe they were ever replaced), a new e-brake cable on the back left, and new lower ball joints, then align it.







The cardboard in back in the last pic is protecting a piece of 20 gauge steel I will use for one small rust hole on the rear passenger door. I have a lot of stuff to rust-treat before it gets worse. Also this weekend I hope to clean a hole in my garage/shop to keep my "new" baby under wraps. All I need right now is to get rid of this monster darn cold I have!

Saw 2 does the first day but nothing else. Little bit of deer sign and almost no elk sign so I'm thinking the snow storm on Thursday night pushed them down lower.

Took my flat black resonated 4" tip off and left the tail pipe cut short like it is! Doesn't look the best but it sure did change the tone! Might pick the tail pipe up more so you can't see it and it'll resonate under my bed... Hmm wonder what it'll sound like

Yeah, but it's coming together. Now I'm contemplating (gulp!) changing the spark plugs. When I bought it the guy told me it had never been done since he bought it new. I guess they're SP-493 Motorcraft, and I probably would want new coils if I do it. Plugs ain't bad, but the coils are pricey!
