Threads about your truck were some of the first I remember reading when I first joined RF.

BAHAHAHAHA....don't ask about that lil truck! lol. I know it'll get done eventually, I just hope it gets done soon. Really soon.

GREAT FUN AWESOME trip it was. Guess who took all them action shots of mine?!?!??? That's a rarity....usually it's me snapping others and me never getting snapped! lol. The trip has had me day dreaming all week of plasma torches, grinders, welders, cut up sheetmetal, and thousands of dollars worth of parts!!

DUDE!! You'll be getting a PM. What you said over there really meant alot to me. I appreciate it. You and the rediculousness and texts from active member friends lead me to logging back in after like 18 months. lol.

$800 to my door for 35x12.50R15's ain't too shabby. If they made Duratrac's in my size, I would have got those. But they don't.

LOL.....ummmmmm, I have maaaaaaaaybe 4,000 miles on them? I honestly don't really know. 4-5k or so. I don't have any of the typical big tire "growl" or "howl" while slowing down and/or/while turning.

Nice truck man.
In my opinion.........actually. I'll just keep that to myself.

She is bi-curious afterall...

Someday, yes. Present time, idiotic thing to do IMO.

But yes, someday she will be torched and welded on. Already got a plan of attack and build sheet made. Thing is, I out-wheel some friends with solid axles. I think it's kinda funny I'm rougher on my IFS than some of my swapped friends. lol.

HAHA.... I'm only the theorist of the pre-key mod, not the one who did the work to prove it! lol. Though, a few months later, my theory was put to the test on a little orange slice of tush. lol.

Pretty straight forward on the F250 master swap. It's been a few months so I've probably forgotten most the specific nicknacks. I bent up new lines from the ABS box to the master. I believe the ABS box requires bubble flares and since I had no way to make those, I purchased new lines, bent 'em up, slid on the male fittings sized to the F250 master, double flared them, installed, bled, done. lol. The couple folks I've sees do the mod, they added adapters and short lengths of line to the stock line since the ports are on the passenger side of the new master. I went the cleaner route. But I may remove the lines and redo them. Make 'em even more stock looking. lol. I'm OCD like that.
