Hey guys, a lot of you probably don't even remember who I am since I haven't been wheelin in about 2 years or so. Jeeps are gone and i now have an F150. Debated selling it for another jeep or something better off road, but i decided it would be cool to have something people dont see much of. (atleast in CO) I figured I will just get the truck as "offroad ready" as possible and it can get me to camp and fish spots. Anyway, on to the pictures:

Here's how I bought it:

Took it for a nice mud run:

Put some raptor wheels/tires:

Built a some bumpers:

slowly coming along. Hopefully will be put mostly together tonight. Had some troubles with one of the CVs not coming off the shaft, but Bill hooked it up!
My coilovers ended up being too long so I ordered some new Foxs that happened to be on sale. They are pretty wimpy but needed something quick so I could move in to my new apartment. They will do just fine, but just want a 2.5 coilover with a resi in the future!

Looks awesome. Nice job with the bumpers! Those A arms look pretty solid. The stock ones are strong compared to some other trucks but they definitely hang low.
