@Igor M. what did you paint it with? is the finish texture intentional? it looks great... random thought, but its interesting the difference in the coil bucket design between your f250 and my f100. mine is flat on the top and even with where the shock and coil land. the f250 looks like it either elevated the coil part to allow a longer spring, or shortened the shock mount to run a shorter shock.


@NIXDSG love how you mounted your sway bar through the frame... makes me want to change mine.

Painted with Triton epoxy primer then wet on wet, 2k Troton Rangers bedliner paint.vety thick. Comes with the special gun, texture is the nature of the beast.

I had mine sand blasted by a local business. Best $300 I ever spent!

For paint, I rolled on eastwood rust encapulator then brushed on implement semigloss black. its tough and super easy to touch up during the build and any future rust. And cheap.
