Default Wolvee's Build

"Sir, This recruit has Nothing to report at this time."

Decided to start a build thread. I've got some good plans and but who knows when I'll get around to doing it all. Slow and steady, right?

I can't decide what will make me more satisfied, a SC 2v or an NA 4v. I've built some pretty sick Mustangs in the past but I'm over the Hp sickness.

300-350rw from a slush box 4x4 could be plenty for me. Tq is what I really want. If I want Hp, I'll build another Mustang.



What it is:
2001 F150 Supercrew Lariat 5.4 2v, 3.55 (Most other options from the factory)
Paid $4500

What it has:
  • SCT SF3 Tune
  • Magnaflow cat back 1in/2out
  • Tint
  • Harley D. Heads

Needs:
  • New Paint (Same as stock)
  • Automated steps
  • Tow Mirrors or something bigger than stock.
  • 08 Fender badges
  • 3" Body Lift
  • 33's or 35's
  • Fx4 wheels or something light weight and classic/classy
  • New Head Gasket (I change my oil Monthly via the HG leak.)


Don't know when I'll be updating the thread since I only buy parts when I can't buy guns.

All that's done here is it's leveled, removed the running boards and bug guard removed.



I have new 4x4 decals and pinstripes but the paint is so spidered, I've decided on not putting them on yet. Maybe after the paint job.

New Decals, they're too light but they don't look too bad in person.

Upon Further review of my Leaf spring Bushing I decided to just wait to change them for when I either decide to break things on purpose or when I change out to heavy duty springs.

Also,
Greased up my Slip Yoke to stop the Banging finally but I don't think I used enough grease. It's much better but it's still noticeably there.

Then re-greased all my zerks.

I picked up an Expidition Console and a Roof rack. The Console is installed but I'm not trying to decide on the best leak free option to install the Rack.

Here's the Console:

I'm 99% sure I'm going to pull off the Tonneau Cover. I'm going to build a removable tubular skeletal frame for camping. This cover just seems to be in the way all the time.
