No sense in stating the obvious. I just wanted to say hello to all since I have been watching this forum for sometime now.

What I drive is a 93 F-150 4x4 5.0, Standard cab Long Bed A/T. This is going to be my project truck as I know many of you have heard this before. But what I plan on doing is making this vehicle mainly off road use and occasional driving.

This past weekend me and my buddy welded up the spider gears in the Rear-end for Possi Taction. I will also weld up the front end as well, just ran out of gear oil while doing the rear end. Next I plan on doing a 3" boddy lift to accomodate some 34x10.50x15 Super Swamper LTB's and I plan on cutting some on the fenders and bumper. (currently running on 31x10.50)

Performance wise i haven't done much. I have gutted the cat, and ran a straight pipe for the exhaust. I plan on running straight dual from the Headers eventually. I also have made a custom cold air intake that looks pretty sweet. Other than that, that is all I really have done.

Don't worry though there will be pleanty of pics coming soon.

Welcome.. This is just a mud truck right??? Welding up the spiders on a daily driver is not a wise move.

Oh I know, Yeah this is not a daily driver at all. Mudding is all I plan on doing for the most part besides the seldom trip to the lake with the boat, or to a pond out in the fields for target practice.

My Daily driver is an 03 Eclipse.

I know I keep my truck about 35 mins from me at my buddy's Garage. His garage is real close to where we go off roading. Plus I will be about 5 hours from it this weekend.......
