Kenneth Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 You need larger wheels/tires! That gap in the looks huge! Nice looking truck though. Haven't seen a white one. There is a blue velociraptor from hennesy around my neighborhood somewhere. 2008fx4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 NICE trade! With that graphics package, looks like you'll definitely be buying SVRT by the gallon now. 2008fx4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2008fx4 Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 You need larger wheels/tires! That gap in the looks huge! Nice looking truck though. Haven't seen a white one. There is a blue velociraptor from hennesy around my neighborhood somewhere. part of it is the angle of the pic. ive decided to spend money elsewhere on the truck, so wheels/tires will have to wait. plus, the wheels i have are forged beadlock capable wheels. as far as tires go, the ones i have are almost 35s. the suspension moves quite a bit, so if i were to up it to 37s id have to trim a lot out of the front fender well. NICE trade! With that graphics package, looks like you'll definitely be buying SVRT by the gallon now. you know what - i dont use the super vrt on the black vinyl, even on my jeep. just a mist of the quick sealant and a wipe down and they look awesome.

JBlack151 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Have you thought about getting the rear fender wells sprayed with a bed liner material at all? That white will be tough to maintain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2008fx4 Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 also - just added the Bakflip F1 cover to the truck. was told by many not to run a rolling retractable cover on these trucks if you are going to use them as intended. evidently the bed flexes enough to cause the rollers to come out of the rails. plus, i can have this cover off in 5 minutes.

DonJuan692006 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I think it looks awesome...almost as good as that haven you've got it parked in. The more time that goes by the more I'm kicking myself in the arse for not getting a house with a bigger garage. Good thing I only have about 2.5 years until I can sale and that will definitely go into the "must have" list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBlack151 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I figured you would have them sprayed. Nice choice with the F1. I absolutely love mine. I had somebody try to convince me to get the G2 however after our last blizzard with over 3 feet of snow his couldn't hold up against the weight and buckled. You can stand on these F1s if you wanted, and yes the ease of removing is awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc2hill Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Wow, that is a much cleaner look! I had to look at the the 'before' pics, but that looks very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2008fx4 Posted September 14, 2013 Author Share Posted September 14, 2013 installed a few more things today: Corsa exhaust - love it. really like that i can drive around with no drone whatsoever, but its more pronounced than stock esp. at wot DeeZee tailgate assist - no more dropping the tailgate and having it slam down: JLT oil seperator: keep some of the oil out of the intake track. ran one similar to this on my 2002 harley f150 and it kept a ton of oil from reaching the blower. also done - but didnt take pics - drop-in k&n and factory bed extender.

2008fx4 Posted September 15, 2013 Author Share Posted September 15, 2013 The painted flares look much better than the black. the flares werent even black - they were a matte finish dark shadow gray. the bumpers are next to go. getting some from a place in phoenix called addictive desert designs. should have those on next friday.

DonJuan692006 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Somebody's engine bay has been neglected . Does that catch can have a breather on it or is that one you have to dump? JLT has some good peeps. They're local to me and I've used them for references for the Stang and have their CAI. I've been debating on having them dyno/tune my ride but will make that decision once she gets back from the body shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not unless you're one of the many that forgets to dump it and I didn't mean any offense about the engine bay. Just noticed it hasn't been dressed but with everything else going on with the truck I can understand.

2008fx4 Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 plastidipped the tailgate FORD emblem today: after looking at that pic of the plastidipped emblem, i thought that it looked kinda cheap so i busted out the exacto knife and some patience: looks a lot better to me - even if its still chrome.

Thought about doing this with the S-10 to cut down on road noise. line-x - dont think doing the wheels wells helps with road noise. i have my entire hard top on my jeep done inside and out and there was only a slight reduction in noise. you'd be better off dynomating the entire inside of the cab - roof, back wall, floor, and doors to get a good reduction in noise. Much better man, looks perfect now. aww. i am so happy you approve! few more things done today - removed the rigid lights in the bumper to get ready for the bumper install. also installed my bedrug: and painted the corsa exhaust tips a high temp flat black: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redneck08sierra Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 i like the flat black on the tip, blends well 2008fx4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
