Hi everyone, I just bought my first F150 last August. Here's the run down of what's been done so far. It's a 93 XLT 4x4 351W
Pics from when I bought it:
After repairing the things that needed doing (wiper and transfer case motors, shocks and springs, leaf spring mounts) I ditched the camper shell and picked up a roll bar with 3 KC 165W lights for $60. After a quick repaint it looked great. I also painted the wheels black as the chrome was peeling and starting to rust underneath
Then I noticed the thermostat was sticking and water pump gaskets were leaking so that put it out of commission for a while. After that got fixed me and a buddy made a tube bumper with a winch mount for the front
Since then I had to do the timing chain cover gasket so I threw a new chain on while I was in there. I've started working on a tube bumper for the back and some rock sliders. I just got some 32x11.5 bfgs put on to replace the tiny 30x9.5. I will be repainting the front bumper and grill this weekend.
How it sits today:

Welcome to the F150 boards! Glad to have you join.
Any fun performance mods planned for the truck?
Like the build thus far!
I plan to do a better coil, plugs, wires, cap and rotor so I can bump the timing a bit. Also I'd like to pull some different gears out of the junkyard as it currently has 3.08s
