Howdy

Hey guys, my name is Curtis and im 17. Im a senior at Seminole High. Im from Lake Mary, FL. I drive a 94 F150 with a 6" lift and 35's. It will soon have a D44 Solid Front Axle with 38's and 12" of lift. I bought the truck for 4150 cash and have put every penny since in it. I have close to 14k into it now. Im a member of FordTruckWorld and FordTruckSpace under this name. Here are a few pictures of my truck.




Here is how it started:

So where's all that 14k exactly? Rims/tires/lift? Gears? Just curious. Great truck, what's the engine/trans combo?

A lot of the 14K is repairs/upgrades at the same time. Also in the 14k im including the price of the truck. The engine trans is 302 with 156k and a brand new ZF5speed. It came with a M50D but i wanted the ZF. Im staying with 3.55 gears till 38s then i will put 5.13's in. The lift and tires and rims were around 2 grand all together. I did the window tint, bug deflector, line of fire, exhaust, headunit, cb radio, tool box, KC daylighters, windshield wiper motor, fan clutch, water pump, hoses. Etc. Im putting Moog ball joints in her also.

Welcome to FTE!

Figure i'l intro myself to ya...
Im 16, Junior at Monroe High School in WA and have been around trucks and musclecars my whole life. I work on the farm, a construction job (2 depending on the season), maintain sections of wilderness for a private company, and do whatever other jobs need to be done.
My truck is the 1990 F150 in my sig, 302/ M5OD manual 3.55 gearing, 31x10.5 ATs

We have almost identical plans for our trucks it sounds like, im picking up a 1978 Ford 9" rear and D44 solid front this sunday and will swap them in once they are suitably cleaned up, then a 9" suspension lift with 38x15.5 Ground Hawgs, I am also gunna stuff the axles with 5.13's and lockers on top of that.

How close are you to starting your SAS/lift? I figure we ought to be able to share good advice since we are doing almost the same things to very similar trucks. Like i said im getting the axles this sunday, but will have to clean them up and maybe repack the bearings before i can start the swap.
