Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
This is my truck when I got it.
After a 6" lift and some 38's. After the addition of some more stuff after some "persuasion" from the local police force: Finally got the correct grille: Finally, after 3" more lift and some other minor mods, this is where it sits now.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
I think it looked awesome until you added the body lift. I hate body lifts!

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
IMHO, it looks better with the flares and mud flaps. Great looking truck! Wish mine was 4x4.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
Thanks guys. I'll eventually move the bumpers up to make it less noticeable, but the 38's chewed up my fenders once while I had it bound up, so I opted for more lift rather than less tire. ky_kid, those flares are the Bushwacker Cutout flares. They're a pain to install and you better not mess up while doing it, but they allow you to fit bigger tires without lifting higher. They're expensive though, about $100 per flare. I got them on craigslist for $300, it was a decent deal.

That body kit it terrible. Someone needs to save this truck. It would be a beautiful truck without the BK.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
I should have put the color in the description.
It is: 2009 Ford Tuxedo Black Semi Metallic. The paint is not cheap, and I don't even know if it available yet. Some of the ingredients came from Japan and after the tsunami there was a shortage of them. My stuff was painted last fall so it didn't affect me. |
