Yes, it's my truck.

I used steel plate to make the mounts.

Dynatrac Super Duty Combo upgrade to the front so all my knuckles, spindles, hubs, drag link, trac bar, tie rod, stabilizer, etc. are all Dynatrac.
The stabilizer setup works since I have crossover steering and a straight tie rod.


I made the front bumper.

One set of these photos has snow, the other has outdoor bliss.

What the #ell did you THINK our first impression would be when you said "grille"?!?!

Look what we're talking about in the regional SoCal group forum:
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/8...explosion.html

And this is the middle of JANUARY, guys.

Now you know why I no longer live in north-central Minnesota!

Though we're expecting some rain late tomorrow, it was in the eighties today here.

I know, I know, we have earthquakes, fires, locust plagues, tsunamis, volcanoes, pestilence. riots, nuclear-poisoned water, bankrupt government, and draught, but we've got a nice climate!

And we have California Girls!

Seen our official FTE banner lately? ))))

Mine's nothing fancy, but I like the way that it looks with my bumper and brush guard set up. It's a stainless insert, manufactured by Putco. Susan bought it for me, er, Jezebel for Christmas a couple of years ago.

Here,s mine, Westin 6 piece grill. Chris(F-350-6) and his wife(Pinkstroker) gave me the idea. Amazing what a can of paint can do.
