Hi, everybody. I am new to the site. I own a 95 F150 4x4. I have had almost perfect service from it. I was wondering about the chapter here in Illinois. I currently live in Glendale Heights, but am moving back down state for a job. I would be interested in attending any events or meetings you might be having for four wheeling and such. I also am interested in performing a solid front axle swap. Thanks for the replies in advance!

For some information on your question about your axle swap go to this link https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/f...splay.php?f=63 and you can check out all the Ford 4x4 freaks who devote their lives to helping all the 4x4 Ford lovers. Good Luck, Tim

 

Hey Tim, thanks for the info. This whole site is pretty wild. I didn't even know about it until I read an issue of Four Wheeler where they were talking about certain trucks weak spots. Hopefully I can get some decent mods done to my rig so I can post some cool pictures.

He also has one very nice and very high truck! As Tim (An Illinois chapter officer) suggested........stop in at the Chapters Second Meeting thread. We'd be happy to see you there, Fastronald

 

Thanks Fastronald. I'm looking forward to the meeting. Has there been a location picked yet? I checked the post on the 2nd chapter meeting. And it was mentioned that it will be somewhere near ogden and hinsdale. Let me know if you can.

Hi everyone, I've been a Ford F-150 owner for years. All have been used for construction work and took one heck of a beating. I got 240,000 miles out of my last truck, a '92. My current truck I got about 2 months ago. It's an XLT 4x4, 1997 in near perfect condition. This one won't be beat up at work!!
