man your truck is awesome, nice paint job. what engine does it have? I noticed it is an EFI so its not a diesel, is it the strait six? I know that they put the strait 6 in some of the f250s back in the day and I have one in my bricknose f150 and that thing is absolutely awesome, I floor it often and it takes it like a champ

 

 

Thanks! The paint is a little deceiving. The cab is getting a little chalky and the bed was for some reason or another repainted before I bought it. There is no bondo in it though so I am not sure the reason. It has a 351w v8. I absolutely love it. I am thinking about adding some cab lights and cutting out the cat and muffler (allegedly of course) and putting a Magnaflow muffler on.

P.S. in that post I was not complaining that my truck wasn’t nice I was just noting how nice the ones from 15+ years ago looked when they weren’t that old yet.

 

That is a beautiful truck.

 

yeah cats are the worst idea ever (besides DEF) and they didn't even work as they were supposed to, I need to rip mine out as well and also do a smog pump delete

 

 

you got anything additional under the hood of that beauty?

 

Just a new crate 5.0 with about 1000 miles.

 

what wheel and tire setup are you running? I am trying to find some inspiration for my 8th gen and I love your setup

 

These are Raceline 991B assault rims and Mastercraft Courser MXT's (285-75/r16)

 

Do you have a lift?

 

I don't, why?

 

Is there any rubbing when you turn?

 

Oh, that kind of lift

Yes there is rubbing, I took that tradeoff because of where I live. The truck came with the same tires, but in 265-75/R16, which don't rub near as much.

I put Moog cc824 springs on, which do provide a slight raise in the front.

 

Just wondering because they seemed like a big tire to fit on there. My truck has 265/70R16s on it. No rubbing with a 2wd truck but it is really tight.
