I didn't even know you had a build thread... Anyways, nice choice of wheels (), and those LED taillights look awesome! I can't wait to see the future plans come to life. Good luck.

Yeah. I figured I get around to making one since everything is coming together. I'm just hoping I will be able to tuck the 20x12 octanes under that I plan on getting.

Well, good luck. It will be interesting, but I'm sure it can be done somehow.

I talked to the aftermarket guy at Ford that I have been going through and he said that it should turn out pretty sweet! He said that he hasn't had to trim anything that he has put on a truck yet so this should be interesting!

I've decided that I am going to be getting the 6" BDS suspension lift with the 6" strut up front and the Fox 2.0 shocks in the back! This gives me the option of going up to an 8" and an amazing warranty! Can't wait to get everything together and have it installed! I will still be getting the front and rear cross members powder coated white to match my truck!

I like your taste. I just picked up a 4" rancho lift for my 06. It's currently in a shop being blasted and re-powdered white. It's gonna be fun to keep clean lol.

Thanks! Waiting for my tax return to come through so I can get everything rolling! Still can't wait to see all of this come together! I almost feel like a kid on Christmas!

I know what you mean. I'm retrofitting my headlights and can't finish until I install this lift. Both are going to make a big difference on my truck, going stormtrooper as well. I'll be doing my build thread soon. Definitely enjoy seeing other peoples builds, gives me plenty of ideas and wanting to blow tons of money lol.

I plan on redoing my headlights with retrofits and such. Might get new tow mirrors too and haven't decided if I want to PTM them or the door handles. That's been up in the air for me for a while now.

Yeah, I did that for a while. Mainly to try and do something different, but also to get ideas.
