I bought this truck from a very good friend of mine. Started life as a long bed 4x4 5.4 XL work beast. The truck now has a 6.0 in it(studded and egr delete thank God!). It has also been converted to 2wd and the newer(05-up)suspension. Also power everything and digital ac. Plenty more to come! This is going to be a fun project and it is a blast to drive. I am really liking this truck.


The bed and tailgate have been painted silver but the paint doesn't match too well. I plan on shaving the cab lights and getting the truck re-painted eventually.













Grille I added today

WOW!!! That thing sure has come a long ways. :ford:


gonna be great with all those mods done to it too. I like my innovative race file, and would think it would be all the better in that small/light of a truck :evil

Very cool!

Cool little truck. Amazing how fun the little lightweight 2wd regular cab trucks can be with 450-500hp in them. Mine has only been gone a month and I already miss it, especially on these nice 70-degree days. Fun as hell to cruise in.

Good luck with the rest of the build

So freaking jealous. I want a DD like that to just cruise. I wonder what gas mileage it gets? What gears?

If you sell em, I'd like the cab lights and harness and all. Also if you shave everything I really want that keypad on the door. I been looking for one but can't find one.

Yeah I'll do the cab lights when I take them off. However the key pad is cut into the door. It's not the stick on type. I'm not getting rid of that. I do plan on having it painted when I get the rest of the truck painted.

Did a little more to the truck today. Painted the cab lights and put the emblems back on.
