New Accesories

Well I got a little more work done our '12 F250, Seeing as someone in the small town where our Ford dealership is liked my truck so much he asked them to make his over just like mine.
I had to make them look a little further apart for me. I know imitation is flattery but my wife kept asking me if I was in the town because she couldn't tell them apart.

So here goes as follows. I had amp power steps put on for the wife. She thought the factory ones we're to high with the lift on it. I also had a set of train horns installed, a 50 gallon in bed transfer flow tank installed with the Trax II system. Then had the factory tint stripped off and 15% put all the way around. I also had the dealer install a new Monster Bar black billet grill plus the small bumper grill.
They we're also going to install a pair of OEM headlights with projector and hids installed from Black Bird lighting. But the reflector in the drivers side was loose and it has to go back to them to be fixed before they can be installed. But the dealer said they'd do it for free since I've dropped some coin there.

Well let me know what you think. Not much more I can do to it now.

Hard to see but this is the bumper grill piece behind the light and bar.

I would have gone 6" lift but I tow a 10,000+ travel trailer and sometimes a 30' cargo trailer that can go 12,000+ and a 4" was a good compromise. Plus for the kids and wife the smaller lift worked good.

She does love the new steps since the come down farther. Plus what's not said much about the amp power steps is they are a wider area to step on than the OEM ford step bars.

Mine was the 50 gallon. I couldn't squeeze the 70 gallon under the bed cover. About 1" too much from what Transfer Flow told me.

For now the 50 gallon really makes a difference in capacity.
I can always go to a replacement 50 gallon titan tank if I really need to up the capacity.
That would give me 100 gallons.


Thank you for the compliments guys. Tried to not over due it but give it my personal touch. Now hopefully nobody copies this one to the T.

The reason I ended up getting them was the wheels stuck out about 1 1/4" outside the wheel wells. I didn't want rocks tearing up the paint.

I'll have to look up their part numbers. Dealer painted them to match.

I ordered bushwackers, same as these, the bolted look, painted white to match my truck, $1000 in the very end, not installed either. I love the look of this truck! Its different, but not overdone! just right there in the middle which is where you want it!
