Evening all.
Finally got the wheels/tires and fender flares on today. Take a look at the post on my build thread for pics. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/11...l#post12907774
I'll get some more pics tomorrow of the final look from the weekend. Right now it's muscle relaxers for me to try and stop the back pain from kicking into full swing!!

Gerry, The plastic rear fender bit me. It's quite a nasty cut. And the plastic was dull so it ripped, making it worse.
The center caps were left off for my initial ride. I just wanted to make sure everything was sound and it wasn't rubbing anywhere.
I'll post up more pics tomorrow with hubcaps on and the fender flares.

Good morning NM. I'm officially packing up my house again and moving to Santa Fe. The hubby works down in Albuquerque and I still trek up to the labs so Santa Fe is a nice middle ground for us.
The next few weeks of dealing with boxes is going to suck big time!

For now. There are always improvements and tweaks to be made. I think the only cosmetic thing I have left is the paint. But I got to admit....everytime I look at my truck right now I get a really big smile and say "that's a good looking truck right there."
