Another new guy....

Hello everyone! I drive a 94 F150 XLT 4X4. Standard cab short bed with the 4.9L straight six. I bought it wrecked in the front, previous owner hit a light pole or something, so I rebuilt and repainted it myself and I love it! I put 31x10.50s on it, a fiberglass topper and an LED light bar in the grill. I'm adding more LEDs, both sides and the rear of the topper, and some other equipment to use off road as well. I love the TTB suspension (one of the sick few that do) it makes for a flexy four wheeler IMHO. I want to add a 4" lift and run 33s, maybe 35s, dual batteries, high output alternator and onboard air. I look forward to seeing others modifications and learning some new things. Thanks!

A few pictures...


Finished with primer, checking the fit and adjusting the lines and gaps. I wound up cutting 2\" off the headache rack to lower the top a little and angled it forward some to match the angle of the cab, then i painted it satin black. It looked pretty sharp!

All painted now. Color is a little off but unless you look hard it matches pretty good. Replaced the rubber trim piece and added the headache rack after i took this photo.

As she sits now. I replaced the headache with the topper, just to change things up a little. Added the LED bar and mounted it in the grill for a different look.
