Hey guys, I'm new here and figured I'd show off my rig.
This is my 1994 F-150 with quad shocks and dual tanks. 302/E4OD with the manual transfer case and 3:55 (open) rear end. Had about 93k miles when I bought her last April, now has about 103k. I have installed Hella 500 driving lights (soon to be replaced with an LED light bar, probably), a Cobra CB radio, Rallyarmor mud flaps (thin but work well), bed rail covers, and a spray-in bedliner. I used a couple cans of matte clear Plastidip on the hood, simply because the glare is so bad I couldn't drive in the evenings. I also just got a new set of 31/10.50/15 Hankook Dynapro AT-M tires, though I don't have many pictures with them yet.

I use the truck for 4wheeling in the AZ desert and also as my daily driver and I love it. It has lots of squeaks and rattles (which is my pet peeve, unfortunately - LOL) but I have a great time driving it. Just wish it was a manual with an LSD, but hey, someday it will happen. In the future I would like to install a leveling kit and maybe some skid plates.

The day I bought her(looking rough, sat for ~8 months)



Went 4wheeling two weeks after I got the truck with some buddies up in Sedona.




A few months later I went to the Arizona White Mountains with my dad. That was a good time.

Chillin in the AZ Sunset


Week after I put my Hellas on it rained pretty hard. I got to have some fun sliding in the mud


As she sits today (feat. me):

This might be the best looking, well proportioned brick nose I have seen in a long time. Very nice work.

Do you know what the paint codes are in that two tone, it looks beautiful.

Welcome to FTE Kenneth.

Nice to see what one of these can do in mostly stock form.

Beautiful landscape you get to wheel in.

A few looks throughout the years.



This was such a clean look. I loved those headlights when they were brand new.

Thank you everyone for the nice comments! He's still a work in progress but we're making headway slowly but surely.

Here's some details for Gus; it's a 1989 F250 460 with the ZF tranny, tires are 285/75/16 E range Duratracs, leveled front was accomplished by an add-a-leaf from Skyjacker, rear height is factory still, and wheels are Mickey Thompson Classic III's 8" width with a 4" back spacing.

I just had the truck completely repainted glass out style, I don't know where the paint codes are but I will certainly ask the body shop. They did a great job, it's not perfect but very respectable for a daily driver, the colors are awesome in person!

Yes, still own it. The picture doesn't do it justice. When I first bought it, I wasn't sure I liked the color combo. It is so clean though, I had to buy it. The guy who did the paintwork did an awesome job. The undercarriage is as clean as the paint. It's an AZ truck with zero rust. Paint is nearly flawless and like a mirror. Thanks for the compliment
