Lowering, xenon headlights, flashy rims, expensive stereo... on a bricknose Ford? Are you guys trying to make him into a redneck pimp? The truth is your truck is always gonna look like a farm/work truck, most of these pictures they're showing you are 92-96, which IMO is a much more urbanized look. If lookin' like a hard workin' man bothers you that much, a lot of guys on here switch out their bricknoses for pretty boy front ends. Plenty of threads on how to do that.

That almost looks to be a 4/6 drop on the truck i posted i culd be wrong but you get drop beams and an axle flip kit and thats a 3/5, find a set lof lowering coils and drop shackles to get it lower. You may have to c-notch the frame. Get a helper bag set up so you dont have to worry at the truck sagging whem towing or have a load in the bed

Yeah good lord kid don't you know it's cool to be a hillbilly now? I guess I didn't realize that you couldn't have a 92-96 without being a pretty boy. I drive a 95 offroad ex-farm f150, and i use it for a driver and work. Moral of the story is, a nice lowered hot rod looking truck is just as respectable as a good ol' boy. Depends on the person.
No I'm kidding that was just my long winded way of saying he should consider a front-end swap.

Sure did sound like a put-down to me bubba. You obviously have a strong dislike of the 92-96s.

No I just think they look less like farm trucks than the bricknoses did. I'd much rather have a pretty boy than anything after them. Stronger trans, more durable motors, and that old 7.3 powerstroke is a beast. I'm a welder and if I ever need a bigger truck I'll be lookin' at 94.5-97 HD crew cab.
