Cool Project Blaiid

This has been a build since 09.
Finally getting to new 6/135mm 2" adapters-new wheels and newer tires.

So i will be selling the 16" 7lug150mm 7700 series chrome wheels and Nitto Terra Grapplers 295/75R16

Working with a Bastard truck (2001 f150 cab and a semi superduty undercarriage) Has been a challenge so far. Pictures will be up dated

After the new adds/mods. The wheels and tires are shown on the truck in my garage.

How has it been a challenge? Besides the 7 lug crap, everything else should be fine...

Who did you get the spacers through? Was it the guy on ebay I showed you?

u shouldnt have had to many problems with a 7700..not much is different on them. and some big names have came out with lifts, (pro comp, superlift). the only challenge ive had was finding wheels i liked and that were wide enough. but i am curious on these adapters...

The adapters are being built now buy www.motorsport-tech.com

I will show and post all before afters and performance goods.bads and uglies. $550 delivered is just the best ive found since looking in 2 years.
As far as everything else it should be easy, What coils spacers to use? f250 or 150?. Brakes?Rotors? etc etc etc it is a complete challenge be caused there's not enough buyers for parts so they just skip the 4 years they were built. But its coming together.
Ill be mounting Moto metal skulls 17" and some 35/12.5R17's hopefully next week or 2 after the spacer/adapters are built.

What do you need coil spacers for? Are you 2wd or 4wd? Cause if your 4wd, you have torsion bars. And if your leveling it and your 2wd, 35s won't fit.
