Not yet, my camera sucks at capturing sound and my friend with a good camera is in alaska.

I did get my visor painted last night, clearcoat is still drying so it looks a tad blotchy. I'll get the lights installed this week and hopefully have it on the truck next weekend.

Here is my 89 F250, this truck has been in the family since day 1 and its been through hell. My grandfather used it to hunt and camp with, during that time he rolled it over in a sand pit and beat it up pretty good on hunting trips. Since I have had it, she has had a much easier life.

Newcomer, how big of a lift and what size tires do you have on your F250?

Its a 4" BDS lift and the tires are 38X14.5R16 and the wheels are 10" wide. I originally had 35's on the truck when I first did the lift then I traded them away for the 38's. I did have to cut about 1" off the bottom corner of my front bumper so the 38's wouldnt rub. I personally think the tires look a little crammed with only 4" of lift but I am going to be fixing that with the dana 60 and some reverse shackle stuff shortly. Also, those 38" mud grapplers only measure about 36" if you put a tape measure to them.

Sure is hard to beat a 300 / 5 speed. What gear ratio does it have, 3.08?
