Default 2004 fx4

i had a 2005 F150 STX 2wd v6 for almost 4 years and i decided i wanted to go ahead and get the FX4 i wanted to start with. I hunted around and found a 2004 F150 FX4 super crew, had just over 100k on it, but the price was right, they offered enough for my STX.

the FX4 was a business vehicle, with a perfect carfax, and receipts for all the maintenance since the truck was brand new. Since i've had the truck, i've had the cloth seats re-upholstered with black leather, 33x11.50x17 Toyo Open Country A/T's, true dual exhaust with Flowmaster 40's, and a Gryphon programmer and custom tune from Power Hungry Performance.

there's still alot in store for the FX4, so give me your advice opinions, and i'll be posting pics as soon as i can figure out how to.

Looks really good! I'm kind of partial to the red 04 FX4s though

Are you looking for appearance mods too? Harley headlights or taillights? Maybe paint the fogs too if you do like the Harley heads. Blends together nicely IMO. Maybe a black bull bar too.

Here's a pic of my truck with the Harley headlights, tail lights and fogs.

Im unsure of whether I want harley lights or black projectors. I like the harley's with HID bulbs. How much do the harley headlights usually run?. Im also thinking about an offroad bumper, but still unsure.

I got mine for about $100 on Ebay. A lot of people have had problems with them fogging but if you run a bead of clear silicone around them you can prevent it. So far I haven't had any problems. OEM Harley headlights go for roughly $400.

Stock bulbs. Not really into the HIDs without projectors.

The leather was 800 front and rear seats. A guy in sardis does upholstry for a side job and is pretty good.

The ENO and hiking poles are hangin on a gun rack in the back window. And yeah, ENO is the way to go haha.
