Im done with my truck. New style alert.

So as you can see, this is clearly a prominent upcoming fad for those of you who are fashion oriented in the truck world.
I have about a half an inch of clearance, I rubbed a few times turning around...

Weeee, gaymobile!

Smoking beastly animal thingy:

I like it how it is... I might not be cutting it anymore... I mean, an 8 ft bed can carry a lot of crap, and i like crap!
Those are 6" 93 F150 leaves... I wanted more flex so I went with those. The shackles are teh stock ones, just temporary so I can move it around and stuff. The new ones will be longer so I wont be at 47ish degrees...
Id like around 40-42 degrees

Pimp my ride got you set up with some hydraulics yo?

Those pics are killing me. Almost makes my shenanigans look normal. So are you just gonna chop the front off the bed and move the whole thing forward?
