Almost two months ago I bought a truck sight unseen back in Idaho. My dad went and looked at the truck for me As I am in the U.S Coast Guard Stationed in Michigan. I wanted a nice older truck. Ditched my bad *** 2010 F150 and paid cash for this truck! So excited about that! So Here she is. 96 F250, 460, 5 speed. 73,842 ori miles... Dand good shape too! Has a few dings and dents. Nothing that can't be fixed. Has a new set of Hancook dynapro atm's, 285/75R16's. All stock suspension. drives like a dream. I had lithia ford in Boise spray the crap out of the undercarriage with undercoating before I sent it out here! Dumb cruise control doesn't work! my plans are to add the following.
Headers, exhaust
Bed liner ( u-pol raptor diy kit)
New wheels
Heavy duty front bumper/winch
euro headlights
grill insert
front leveling kit, sas? lift? I am happy with 33's...
more I am sure!

 

wow awesome lookin truck, have fun

 

Wow, Nice truck! Love those colors...... she looks like she's been babied! congrats... and most importantly, whatcha gonna do first? mild lift? wheels? or just drive her?

 

I am not sure... I honestly would be 100% happy with a 1.5" leveling kit. However, I know that some trucks just won't take them. due to alignment issues. Wheels are a must. Those hub caps got to go!

 

Right on!!! Nice clean truck you have there.....

 

i haven seen to many short bed ext cab 250s that looks sweet

 

Love the short box F250's. Too bad you aren't closer, there is a guy on Craigslist selling a nice winch bumper with winch for $700.

Please post pics as soon as you start making changes.

 

NICE TRUCK! I wish i could find a supercab short box. they look awesome. as far as lift/sas i think you need somewhere around 4 inches of lift to do the SAS otherwise you have clearance issues with the ttb crossmember. your ttb should be fine with 33's tho.

 

Get the diesel rims and just drive it. Very good looking truck.

 

Nice looking truck. The only thing I suggest you change is the tires. They look too big in relation to the height of the truck.

 

Take a look at these bumpers. I think one would look good on your truck with a lift. Heavy Duty Winch Bumpers for 1992-1998, Ford F150-F550, Bronco Ford Trucks by BUCKSTOP Truckware

 

Please don't ruin your truck with that hideous bumper ^^

 

DO EETTTT!!!!....Just paint the bumper black....Please...

YOurs is looks similar to my truck

 

Thanks for the kind words! I look forward to making it my own. I would really be happy just leveled, with the 285's that are on it. And different wheels of coarse!
