Ha, yes thanks for your months of education... but she aint all proper yet... gotta:
1: eventually get the rear suspension redone properly...
eliminate the 3" and 1" block and install 4" lift leaf springs...

2: Eliminate the fender flares (possibly), and eventually get around to filling the holes and clean up the scratches caused by flares... If I wanted to permantly remove the flares that is.... and look into doin line-x on rocker panels and tail gate.

That looks AWESOME! No body lift FTW! Or do you have one on there and just have really nice gap guards?

Not sure on the Fender Flares by year but on my 2003 the flares have the holes in the side of the fenders and the clip do come out with a little help but watch out the clip are not available separately, they come with a new flare.. Ford, gotta love em.

Truck looks good though.
IMHO... 10" Rims may be too wide and cause excessive wear on the wheel bearing; 8" looking good, again just an opinion...
