Almost forgot about this thread. Has changed quite a bit thanks to this Forum... From Livin and the guys on the forscan thread, to Firerunner and others I have made a bunch of changes on this truck that I certainly did not anticipate.
Wheels were replaced with Fuel Mavericks and 305's, Grill replacement with Raptor style less "FORD", added Anzo's with switchback and LED Bulbs and I don't even remember what else.
King Ranch LED Tails are a work in progress!

Nice and clean!!
How about those tail lights, what are you doing with them? I'm having a rough time trying to find non leds without the chrome trim on them.

Thank you so much! I spray tinted the tails and installed LED bulbs but I just bought a set of non Blis KR LEDs... lol when I get the LEDs installed I am going to try popping them open and making the chrome go away. I’ll keep you posted!

Please do. I think those tails are sonic welded, so baking and prying won't work. There was a member here who actually cut a set of tails apart, can't recall who, or what generation though.

Finally got the King Ranch LED non-blis taillamps installed. Well worth it IMO. I also did some modification to the bumper insert to make the center opening match my Raptor style grill.
Standard Halogen Taillamps
LED Running Light
LED Brake Lamp - I preffered to use the Red ring for brake and turn signal instead of the amber turn signal. I think all the red looks better.

Did you ever get your new steering wheel installed?

Tails look good lit up. Would you have a photo from the side with lights off?
