Introduction

Hey All, im new to the forums, but not new to cars and trucks especially Vintage ones. Because of the gas pricing, I was able to get my first full size F150 truck. It has a 7.5" Fabtech Suspension lift and 3" body lift. Currently I have 35" tires and 17" custom wheels. The interior is stock w/ the exception of the custom A/V system I just installed in the truck. The body is NOT perfect, but it will be hitting the paint booth soon w/ a few mods to spice 'her' up from all the rest. This weekend I plan on changing my upper and lower balljoints, tie rods and idler arm. LOL, they are SHOT!

Definite plans in the works are 37x12.50x17" tires, changing the ring and pinion to 4:56 and adding Hypertech system.

Im not sure if there is a classified section but I am looking for these things so any help is greatly appreciated.

Im looking forward to getting my truck completed and hope I can help anyone here the same.

Cheers!

Welcome to the site. If you are gonna go with 37's, I'd really consider going with 4.88 gears unless you do a lot of driving on the interstates and never tow/haul anything heavy.
