    The Grim Reaper Build

    Sorry for the late reply Vince. You are correct, the lowest backspacing they come is in a 4.65 or 4.56 (can't remember off the top of my head), but the bigger issue is they do not make it in our bolt pattern. So how did I resolve this issue? I simply purchased a set of 1" 5x4.5" to 5x5.5"...

    Heated seats

    I just ordered a decent kit off ebay and I love it. I think I have $80 in the kit, and then $80 to have the pads installed under the leather. I did all the wiring and installation of the switches in my center console. I'll get pics when I can. Well worth it!!

    The Grim Reaper Build

    Well it's official, I'm 98% complete with this damn money pit. I found the last NIB set of Bushwacker Pocket Flares in existence! AND the best part is, I got them shipped to my door, painted, and installed (them myself) for a total of $400. Not a bad addition and I needed them to cover these...

    CALLING: Chad, Travis, ToddZ, etc, 4.56 Gears Help Needed

    Thanks Travis, I got your email shortly after I posted this. That's my game plan is to get these parts to them about the time they finish the transmission and get it all knocked out and back on the road.

    CALLING: Chad, Travis, ToddZ, etc, 4.56 Gears Help Needed

    Last Friday I was attempting to pass a semi, doing about 78mph into 20mph wind and when my truck downshifted all hell broke loose. I haven't heard back from the transmission shop yet, but I'm sure those 35"s put too much strain on the tranny. I figure while she's in there, I should get it...

    QUICK HELP, 4 wheel drive no worky! Need input

    No he didn't give me the trouble codes... I'll ask him this morning. It just sucks being out of town, but I want it done incase my wife has to drive it. RWD BMW's in snow do not work at all. Thanks for the kind words Brandon... I've done a few more things to her so I'll update my thread in...

    QUICK HELP, 4 wheel drive no worky! Need input

    Hi guys, so I'm sure most of you have seen this damn truck of mine... I bought it "mint" from a Stealership in Chicago. Me being the dumb guy I am, did not even check to see if 4wd worked when I received the truck. Instead I tore it apart to put the lift(s) and other parts on it. So my...

    Light bar lights

    I ran a 40" LED bar on my rack and 20" on my bull bar... LED is the only way to go after always running (4) 6" KC style lights. [Broken External Image]: [Broken External Image]:

    The Grim Reaper Build

    @Jerry I did get an alignment done right afterwards, but you're right... that camber looks bad. I went to some random shop so I could drive it 3 hours home so I'll take it by my usual mechanic here. @Hugh Thank you! The LED's are made by Exploration Outfitters. They are not as high...

    3" BL, 2" TT, 2" SL coming soon! ATT: Jerry, Hugh, Travis, Ben and others

    Good for you bro! I'm glad you're putting the money and time into replacing the joints, ends, bushings etc! I don't know how mechanically sound you are, but that body lift is something almost anyone can do. Surely you have a buddy with a garage full of air tools? Keep up the good work...

    The Grim Reaper Build

    @Kyle Thanks man, it's getting there slowly... @travis I know man, keep me posted on what you end up having in this swap. I'm also curious to see what it does to RPM's at 70mph... probably way too high to drive at that speed. @Jerry I'm building it to make it through a ton of...

    Baddest Sporty Build... need help!!

    @Jerry Would you replace these even if the truck only had 50k in it? I took my old ST to 109k before replacing them. I might as well. I'll have a lot of pics real soon!

    Bad BP gas

    Just an FYI, Exxon, Mobil, or ESSO is the only way to go... and no I'm not saying that because I'm an engineer for them :grin:

    Baddest Sporty Build... need help!!

    Welp, body lift is complete after fighting many rusty carriage bolts. The bumpers/skirts are currently being bodyworked and painted all black to match. I'll throw those on once I finish the suspension lift. The susp lift worries me a bit. It says I need a special ford puller tool to...
