Looks good to me, interesting paint scheme with the cab, I understand you swapped cabs. Are you going to leave it black or paint it red?

Its funny you say that because everyone thinks I painted it like that for a different look. And truth be told many people tell me they like the way it looks just as it sits. I do plan on painting it red in the future. The truck gets more looks then my mustangs or lighting ever did. It's so crazy.

I see where its from the cab swap, but I too like the difference it makes.

Just because its different and not just another "very nice all red" Ford.

Paint all red or not your truck set up looks good.

Bench seat

" I don't know about you but my truck has a bench seat that has some serious padding." Did you add padding? standard bench? Truck looks great

Truck looks good. I used the same springs and ended up building blocks for the rear, the front just set too high for me.

Ya I wasn't sure on the paint scheme with the cab like that but after a second look I really like it. Very unique, something you may never see anywhere else. Awesome truck mines working its way to be that nice one day.

Did you get new shocks and 4degree c-bushings? Drop pitman? Looking to do the same as my 460 brings the front end down some and i want to put a bumper on it.Thanks

Looks like you need some taller springs in the rear though.
I am with MisterCMK, I like a little rake the way Ford sent it out the door, but I am old-school.
