Truck is finished! Pics...Check it out! 1996 F250

Hey guys!!!! I am so excited. I finally finished my truck....I have been working on it all winter. I put a 4" Rough Country lift on it, new shocks, new spring and shackle bushings all the way around(poly), new upper and lower ball joints, new tie rod ends, new axle pivot bushings, new u joints in front axle, new spring hangers and shackles in the rear, 315/75/16 tires that I had picked up used and painted the whole frame, axles and rear tank with por 15. Turned out awesome!!!! I still need to get the alignment done but couldnt wait to post some pics. Let me know what you guys think. Took me a long time but I think it paid off. I have tons of pictures if anyone is interested and if anyone is doing any of this and wants an opinion feel free to ask.

Looks real good man. I like the factory rims and bumpers, keeps it looking real clean still. Nice work.

Fishforlife, Its funny you say that cause I was already thinking clear or smoked. Would look sweet but the wife had a hard enough time with what I did spend....All in due time. Slowly but surely. Muliefever, I am very impressed with the brackets and springs....so far. Time will tell. It has a lifetime warranty so I guess if anything goes bad they will take care of it. So far they have been very good to deal with. Ask me in 6 months! Blue Rebel has this same lift and really likes it and has really beat it up offroad. For how everyone down talks Rough Country I think they do a pretty darn good job. Happy so far!
