If you go out to http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Freeway/7515/ there is a link with all the info on mods to my truck. I think it's updated.

Comment on the traction bars - only do it if you want the look. As far as I'm concerned they add nothing. Mine are Pro-Comp and made for a Chevy. At the time they didn't have them for the Fords (I believe they do now). With the shocks, installed, I think it was around $1k.

Thanks for the comments.

silverback,
Is your truck a 2x or 4x. if its a 2x how much lift do you have and how are the 305's effecting your HP and MPG?
