I dare you to go over a speed bump, haha. Or pull out of your driveway for that matter. Pretty sweet work though. Did you do it yourself or have it done?

What is the technical name for this vent (plastic) in front of the windshield?
It was faded pretty badly, so I taped of the hood and painted it yesterday. It came out pretty good.

I've always called it the wiper cowl. Looks good! I painted mine this summer too.

rustoleum engine enamel. My stepson painted the rails on his truck bed and they came out pretty good, so we decided to give it a try. That cowl was horribly faded, so it was either this or try to replace it. We did the steps yesterday, too:

The best I can tell it's a leveling kit and 3in body. The dealership took a trade and sent it to be modified to get people to stop and look at it. Too bad nobody at the dealership seems to know anything about it. I don't understand how they can sell vehicles without being "car guys". BTW..it's riding. on 35's

Just noticed the tow hooks below the bumper line. They should be tucked in pretty close. I would buy into your thoughts on a body lift seeing that.
Sharp looking rig though. Resembles a Tuscany in a way.

That truck is looking real sharp Jack! I've always had a soft spot for red trucks. The lift looks real good on it as well. What's the lowest point, as far as ground clearance is(in inches) with those 35's?

I can't tell you for sure. It's 16 degrees outside so I am not gonna measure it for a while. When i do, I will post it for you.

My F-150

I got a '06 F-150 that was passed on to me from my dad. I got some American Racing Rims, Dual flowmaster exhaust, a nice chrome grill, and it's 2" lowered. Needless to say it's a pretty nice first truck.
