Ok. Was just wondering because my backs aren't as squared off as yours. I'm in desperate need of redoing mine. Paint job has to come first though.
I know what you mean about the seats. Seems ford used several different styles of seat, even in the screws from 01-03; this was part of the reason it took so long to find donor seats for me.
Few more updates; decided to add an on board air system, air helper springs, and a train horn because why not...
Also green leds in the interior door handles and under the dash and front seats. The illumation is very low when the exterior lights are on. I am unable to get a decent picture of them at night. They are very subtle. And no the resistors were not left bare, wrapped in shrink wrap how they should be.
very cool. always good to see something like this brought back from the dead. any engine plans?
No major plans for the engine unless something catastrophic happens to where i need to take the motor out. If that happens, it will either be adding a supercharger from lightning/HD or possibly a coyote 5.0 powertrain.
Just a couple updates; ending up breaking off one of my towing mirrors already by hitting it on a fence so I found same ones, just with a puddle light an led turn signal. They are meant for a 03-10 expedition so the wiring was a nightmare. Had about 15-17 wires compared to the 5 wires for the stock/first tow mirrors.
Also truck had factory door moldings on it, that got significantly worse after power washing the truck; blowing off clear coat even more. So I thought I could get away with just removing them completely. But just like removing the FX4 stickers on the back, it pulled paint off with them all the way down to primer. So ended up replacing them with the closest match I could find for a reasonable price. (The pic doesn't look like the paint matches, it doesnt 100%. But close enough during the day.)
Few more updates, sold the 35s and upgraded to some 37x13.5R17s. Also raised the front another inch or so with keys. Revisited my exhaust setup so I could put some side steps on. Put some led lights in the step pads that come on with the interior lights (unlock and open the doors).
