What my FlareSide brother NeXtras said.

There is one FlareSide that I see running around town that's a single cab. It's red. I think it has a 300 in it too. There's two others but they're all ex-cab. I see a blue single cab FlareSide every once in a while but not all the time like I do the red one.

I have to admit, I drive my truck with pride. FlareSides are rare, and very good looking.

And FlareSides. Wonder why Ford didn't make a FlareSide Lightning version? I'd like to see someone do a FlareSide Lightning "clone". Rims / bumpers / stance / just with a stepside bed.

6cylBill, I agree except I think it should be done to a real Lightning, I mean all you need is a flareside bed. Kind of funny how you couldn't get a flareside L in gen 1 and you couldn't get a styleside in gen 2.

If you're hardcore, it makes more sense to just swap the bed.

cji1999, They are 33x12.5x15'. Just put on but to try out, I would need 2"-3” lift (Rubbed on Turns) and most likely 4:10's (E4od does not play well with stock 3:55's) I put on new 31x10.5x15 Goodyear Silent Armor's. Stock size on door panel sticker is P265x75x15, so the 31's work better.

Quote:6CylBill Nice Looking Truck are those bumpers plastic? " Can you paint over chrome"

6CylBill, These came all Black. Sorry I don't know if " Can you paint over chrome"

Quote: Black Cowboy Everyone on this forum understands where you're coming from. All these trucks are special to us because we know and appreciate good, solid trucks built Ford Tough. You can't put a price on sentimental value. Btw, your truck looks really clean. keep taking care of her like you do.

Black Cowboy, Thanks Man. You are Right, It is special to me and I will take care of her. Ford Trucks are Solid...You know that we appreciate all of them, I agree. I really appreciate you comment. Thanks "92 Black Nite

Some of these Trucks are Awesome ,,,,New paint, Suicide door's, Lowered and" bryceme owns a Fleet of Lightning's " . One Supercharged with 600 ponies. This is indeed,,, The best group of Ford Truck Enthusiasts on the web

I've got an idea, my bed has a custom rear quarter done by tire blow out. You guys get me a flareside and I'll put it on. Sound good? lol

Mine is a working pickup too. It loves to work. Excellent pickup and thanks for showing. BTW how do you like the Volvo mini ex? And how big a machine is that?
