Drillrig52's build thread
M going to start a build thread with this truck simply because I wish I would have with my 10th gen.
My truck is a bone stock 2012 FX4 crew cab with the 5.0 and 3.73 gears. Here's what she looked like the day I bought it.
The very first things I added were Carhartt seat covers and Weathertech floormats.
After that, I had to get rid of the red FX4 stickers. I added some black and grey ones I ordered off of eBay. I also picked up some 5.0 badges with a blue dot.
Today I installed an Autospring 2" leveling kit. It's a little nose high, but that will be addressed soon. All in all for 85 bucks, I like it.
I am going to be adding things to this truck to make it a capable towing vehicle. I work out of town about 8 months out of the year and I miss my family greatly. I will also be adding a travel trailer to my stable probably early next year so I can have them with me.
Future mods will include
1A Auto power fold mirrors
Procomp AAL with or without the rear block (not sure yet)
Firestone ride rite air bags 275/70/18 KO2's
Factory trailer brake controller (didn't come with)
X4 with MPT Tunes These mods will come first.
Following them later on down the road will include. Fox 2.5 coilovers, Camburg uppers, and Fox rears.
Stage 2 Procharger
And a console to column shifter swap, I believe that's where they belong in a truck. I'm sure I'm missing a few things, but I will update this as needed.
