wats up guys , so im about to change my idler arms and pitman arms and tie rod ends. at auto zone they show 2 different sizes for my truck theres a 3 7/16 and also a 2 15/32 bolt patterns how do i figure out wich one i need .. i have a 2000 f-150 4x4 with the 5.4 thanks in advance for anyhelp, also does anyone here ride ??? i mean quads

 

just measure to the center of the bolts that hold the idler arm on. it will either be about 2 1/2 or 3 1/2 inches and there is your answer.

 

okk cool thanks man i had no idea

 

no problem, i know what youre talking about because they dont ask you "whats the distance between the bolts that hold it on?" they asked me what bolt pattern it was and I was lost because I had no idea that it even had threads in it (which makes sense because it doesnt)

 

lol yes thats true , this sis my front end i have a huge monster stickes on my rear window i mean like real big more than half the window so thats what im goin for the green and black and also i ride a kawasaki , so my point is how ould it look if i painted my idler arms pitman arms and tie rods monster green??? i have this vision in my head but dont know if it would look good or not

 

Honestly, every truck i have seen with any lime green on it didnt look good to me, but that is just my opinion. Black is the only color truck that you could pull it off with but its very easy to put too much green on there because it stands out a lot more than you think it will once its actually applied. Either way, I would say go for it. Its your truck and as long as YOU like it, to hell with what anyone else thinks looks good. If you like hopping into the driver seat then its all good man. Thats how I look at it when I change the look on my ride.

 

I wouldn't paint any of the steering components green. They will look bad very quickly. Have you considered a Monster sticker on your skidplate?

 

i have had one there but it doesent really look too good so i took it off i have one on the back window
