Put new to me rims and tires on, cleaned the throttle body and MAF. Got a spare tire and got it put under the truck. Bought this old girl as a wreck and have been working on it for a
while. About ready to go to paint
Took it out in the mud for the first time in a while today. I went through a hole that my buddy had rutted out with his lifted Chevy on 53's. I didn't make it lol. We broke my tow strap trying to get it out and ended up using my other buddies Quigley van to get it out. Awesome time though.
Well more like what I did the past three days haha. Just bought a used 05 FX4 so I'm doing all the standard things you would do with a "new" used truck... Started with plugs haha... Broke 4 used the lisle kit extract the broken plugs, cleaned all coils and boots... Runs like a top now though. I think the owner before me ran it 144k without ever touching the plugs. Change the oil ended up switching the gram filter to motorcraft.

Smart move^^ right there. To many people buy a used truck and mod the crap out of it instead of making it run like it should and take care of the inside before touching the outside. Nice job!
