I think I'll have to do that to mine now for sure. Also that accent along the bottom helps to accentuate the clean long lines of the SuperCrew long bed. That is beautiful.

Thanks,

And I know what you mean.
You love it right after you wash it, then hate it when it's dirty by the third time you drive it.

Is this a real picture? It looks photo-chopped to me. The wheels and traction bars especially. Just curious if you already did this to the truck or were just trying out the look.

I like it. The black between the windows and the strip at the bottom work well with the look you have going on with that truck. It's pretty sharp.

You can see concrete through the wheels

I found the right thread... I picked this old dog up the other week. 97 F250 4x4 crew cab w/460. It's got a few of the normal mods done to it. Stock truck with 33x12.5.

Nice looking truck.

Do you have any issues with rubbing anywhere with the 33in tires? I've been thinking about going up to 33's when i get new tires.

Not a frequent flyer to the forum, but am getting ideas for this diamond in the rough. It's a '94 Flareside I bought 2 years ago with a 302. It's been a good truck minus tossing a couple nickels and dimes at it (quite a few to be exact). Came with a 2" lift. Needs repainted because I'm pretty sure the PO had a Maaco paint job performed on this truck, as it doesn't look much like these pictures anymore. Needs new wheels as well - They're beat. Planning on painting either white or black and putting on a 6" lift with 33's or 35's. Keeping the wheel size 15". Not a fan of the 22" Rockstars I see rolling around these days.

My 1994 F350 460/E4OD 4.10 gears. It's got Banks intake, headers and Trans-Command with Gibson single exhaust. It's in great shape and 111K miles. I've had it a couple years and now getting after a few small issues, dressing it up, new tires and so on. Great old truck
