Always Glad to see fellow Mechanicsvillans

 

yea there aint too many of us on here

 

yeah im kinda surprised b/c theres a ton of lifted f150's round here

 

i know theres basically a lifted truck at every house out here

 

i know man...gotta love it.....how do you like the 2wd?...im thinkin my next truck is gonna be like a 01 2wd...my friends say im crazy though....just seems like a lot nicer suspension and less to deal with...and better mpg's oh and only have to gear one axle

 

Maybe we should have asked for a Group Purchase on these mirrors. Mine arrive Saturday. Your truck looks awesome.

 

I've been wanting the Dixon Bros. bumper for about 9 months now, looks like as soon as I get back to work I will be buying it...

Do you have a thread about it or a better shot of how its mounted and stuff like that??

I plan on buying the mirrors as soon as I start work too...

 

its not too bad, i mean it'll never be able to do all that a 4x4 can do, but the past snow we had back in december i guess where we got like 6" I took it out and didn't really have a problem with gettin from black creek to arbys, you just have to take everything a little slower and with a little weight in the back its no problem. But the tires I have made a huge difference in traction too from the added weight and the good tread. And mpg is a huge plus right now haha And yea I feel like the ride from coil springs is a lot nicer than on torsion bars like in my cousins old truck, and less stuff to break is always a plus haha

 

Here's a thread i started when I first got the bumper

But if you have anymore questions or want any other pics feel free to pm me man!

 

do you have gears or a locker in your diff?

 

No to the gears, I need them badly though. I'm still rolling on the stock I assume 3.55s but I never checked ha. And I assume no locker or lsd either but I'm not sure of the factory options chosen or what he might have added

 

Yep, I will be buying one as soon as I get cash flow coming in, I have the money, just no cash flow to replenish my supply...

Look at the VIN on your door sticker, 18 is 3.08, 19 is 3.55...Factory they would of either been open or had a limited slip in it...


My neighbor has a gold extended cab short bed 98 model 2wd I am thinking about buying and leaving my 01 4x4 stock and put the bumper and my flared glass fenders on the 98 with the newer style nose like my 2001...

 

Ah thanks ill check that out tomorrow. And yea i'm waiting for may for school to be out so I can take the time to put my fiberwerx fenders on the front. I've had them for a while but I just don't have enough time to be without the truck during school and once I put them on I figured I'd repaint the truck too so I'm saving for that haha
