New guy...... Kinda

What's up people, name's Joe. Resident postwhore on LR (same SN). I bought a white 2000 F150 Supercab, just stated working on it to make it look better. Im no newbie to the F150's other cars are a 2003 Lightning and 2006 Chrysler SRT8. My specialties are low and fast so when it comes to the Screw I need some help. Truck is a 5.4 2wd with 179,xxx miles, stock wheels painted gloss black, black grill, Lightning headlights with clear corners 6k HID's. I just finished my widetop console mod, Pioneer headunit, ipod interface, 800 watt Pioneer amp, 10" sub box with Alpine Type R sub (under pass side rear bench) should be here today if Fedex hurries up. I want some side steps or nerf bars and a decent lift (again not sure on this since I normally lower vehicles, not lift them body/suspension lift dont know the difference)

Any help towards used parts/deals or info is much appreciated, also I want to do this as cost effective as possible since the L and SRT consume most of my $$$.

Thanks

2wd's don't come with them
they are just stock lift blocks i think 1 3/4-2" pretty sure you'll need the u-bolts too cause they are longer and have more threads

The L is definitely faster, its a full bolt on truck (intake, pulley, tune exhaust etc) but find me a stock or mildly modded L and the SRT will go to work.

What have you ran with the SRT. My bro has a 08 charger srt with cai and a programmer, his fastes time was a 12.99 he said it got faster as he got it broke in.

Nice trucks both of em but that lightning is bad, love the white wheels. Do you know what kinda numbers your putting down with it?

You have AWESOME cars Btw!!!
