As you can read im putting 1 ton axles under my 99 F150. The truck is going under the knife on Saturday. We will start ripping everything out. Then im waiting on my D60's and tires, which will be in next week.

the truck will be street legal.

Here are the facts:
1. Dana 60's Front and Rear
2. 5.13 Running Gears
3. Leaf Sprung
4. 40x17x16.5 Denman Ground Hawgs

Here are the Unknowns:
1. Amount of lift 12-18"
2. Steering Setup (probably crossover)
3. Design of Spring Hangers
4. Desicsion about front crossmember
5. shocks
6. Painting a textured FLAT BLACK.

So im waiting on my tax returns which will be in the bank soon then i pick up the parts. In the mean time ill be ripping everything out.

But for now im gonna give everyone a time to say good bye to the old look.

Heres some pictures:

Have fun. Good luck. Keep us updated and take lots of pictures.

 

god its so funny how small 15 inch wheels look these days. who remembers there first set of 15x10 and mud tires for there truck. cant wait to see the build

 

i will definitely be taking as many pictures as possible. The truck should turn out nice.

 

sounds like a beast. i love seeing people build on off monsters, rather than some massive crappy lift, like whiplash.

 

Man Jesse' truck always gives me a boner LOL. Can't wait to see yours done. Had a 2wd reg cab, seein one SAS'd will be sweet!

 

The green truck is Farmboy Fabrications truck the white one is Kuntrykids truck

FarmboyFabs: 15" Of Lift
Kuntrykids: 19" Of Lift

Ill be right inbetween them, im gonna pick up some 16" Leaf springs this weekend hopefully. Cant wait. Plus i got a 3" body Lift that will be stayin on so ill be right at 19" I will beable to clear 54's with this setup.... but probably only run 44's

 

caint wait to see the build trimble, its gonna be one bad SOB. are the diff's locked or are they gonna stay open?? i'll be in tampa tommorrow night for the PBR, and then back to the Fl/Ga line for work in the mornin! are you gonna be startin to weld up brackets and mounts by next weekend??

 

Looks good man, I can't wait to see it. I'm gonna have to check it out in person when it's done.

 

Sounds pretty sweet bro! How much do you think it's all gonna end up costing you?

 

Sweet now I can show these pics to my wife and say

"See honey, At least I'm not doing this!"

 

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I may have to use that one too! She doesn't know that what I'm doing is more expensive though so it'll work out!

 

I've always drooled over that farmboy truck over at PBB. If your only going to run 44's why bother lifting it that high? what about a little less lift for a better center of gravity? or is it going to be just a mud truck so you want it as high as possible?

 

With a 4.2l? Wow!

Can't wait to see the pictures!

 

this sounds like it will be awesome when you are finished. my brother lives in tampa and he used to have an 88 f150 that he turned into a mud truck like this and it was lots of fun. can't wait to see the finished product.
