2x I couldn't agree more!

 

3x On that, as Ya'll said, "One hell of a group of guys"

 

Yes, unfortunately I had to let that one go in order to build this ol-girl. But I agree that would have made one cool pic. I do still have the kids number that bought the truck but Ive never contacted him. I did try to stay in contact with the guy I bought the ford from. From the git go he was reluctant to sell the truck to me. I think he had the same plans for it as I... He never would contact me back. But turns out one of our best friends went to school with him and pretty sure he has seen the truck through facebook and what not...

 

Count me in as 4X!
I gotta think of a good reason to bring the Kingdom thread back to the top...... It always seems to rally everybody here.

 

Its not the truck, that makes me swell with pride, although there is something valid in that, its more the build, that many on the Bumpside, have done. Yours definitely has that Superman stance, as I've said previously, Randle's is a show stopper, and others have done amazing things like Trozi... with rust, dents, motors, and just plane inventiveness to restore a ride with pride. There are too many to name, and all deserve recognition for their particular efforts. In a parade, I am sure your truck will make a lasting first impression. I am proud to be a member in the Bumpside Kingdom.

Great looking truck. It is nice to see some finished trucks on this forum! Someday when my truck is done, It would be cool to get some pictures of the trucks together since we are from the same neck of the woods

 

Your truck turned out awesome. Love every thing you did. Anything in your future?

 

Thanks boys, much appreciated. Been working on getting the 5th wheel lifted and ready to go. Trucks running great so far tached about 900 miles. took the trailer around the block the other night, got larger tires and wheels bolted on last night along with some longer shocks. think its ready for a pull... had to change up my hitch set up a little bit to get it all hooked up, but it worked out swell....

 

All your truck and trailer need, is an American flag, and the Star Spangled Banner, on the sound system...

Happy 4th amigo

Baja

 

WOW. That is AWESOME Baja. Got my little 150# chest pumped up. Thanks for sharing.

 

Way cool sir, I have that one saved in my favorites as well.... well boys lots of stuff been going on... made a text run camping trip close and was kinda disappointed. The single turbo is way to big and Im unable to spool it going into 5th pulling 12k on a grade. so I guess its time for compounds... got the small order and just showed up today, viper 63/73 over a s475 gonna make big power witch isnt what Im looking for really. but with said power come quick spool up and lower egts so as long as I keep my foot of the floorboard should still last for years and years... pretty excited to get this knocked out in the next couple weeks so I can use the truck a little before the season is over... got some good news as well... We had a big 3 day country concert over the last weekend witch included a car show on Saterday. The fans and artist got to vote and much to my surprise they voted for the ford... won a awesome gas pump trophy and had all the bands signatures for all three days, kinda cool. I was super excited... Also scored a sweet deal on a new lincoln tig 225 so looks like the twin piping will get tig welded as well....

 

WOO-HOO! That's frickin' BAD AZZ. And well deserved. Chalk up another trophy for the talent in the Bumpside Kingdom. And you specifically Zac. Now all you got to do is send in some pics of your daughter in to Gerber etc. Have her get you some also. Speaking of which, how 'bout posting a pic of her here?

 

What he said! ^^^


The lifted 5er looks pretty cool!

 

Congrats on the trophy. Well deserved too.

 

If you are set on running an s475 as your big turbo, a 62/65 or 62/68 would be a lot better match than your 63/73 and would spool way faster.

If you are set on the 63/73 as your small turbo, you should be running at least an S480 as a big turbo but even a little bigger would be a better match.
