Brand New 05 SCREW Lifted...PICS

Hey Guys, Took delivery of my new 2005 F-150 Fx4 Supercrew about 2 weeks ago. Since that time I have put about 8K into it, I thought I would share it with you and get some feedback....Thanks for looking!!!

Here's A List Of the Mods:

6" Pro Comp Stage II Coil Over Lift
35" Nitto Mud Terrain Tires 35/12.5/18
18X9 Helo Maxx 6 Chrome Wheels
Upper+Lower Billet Grilles
Go Rhino Chrome Running Boards
Limo Tint on All Windows, 20% on Windshield!
4" Magnaflow Exhaust W/5" Chrome Tip
AEM Brute Force CAI W/New Dry Flow Tech.
Granatelli Mass Air Flow Sensor
SuperChips Power Tuner 1745
Nokya Hyper White Headlights+Foglights H13+H10

Much Much More!!!!+ More to Come!!!!!!!

Everything has gone awesome with no problems thus far....The truck was very sluggish out of the factory but with all the mods, it runs awesome...The tires are a little loud at any speed but the looks are well worth the noise! I would highly recommend and of the mods I have done so far...I have put a lot of time and money into this truck and I researched every mod for the best power, mpg, and looks.

Damn, I wish I could of spent that much money on my truck after only owning it for 2 weeks. Are you going to get gears and how are the tires wearing? Im debating between the Nitto Mud Grapplers or the Toyo Open Country M/Ts.

Looks fantastic. Couple of thoughts, perhaps at risk of sounding too much like your father....

The easiest ways to attract unnecessary attention from the Utah Highway Patrol:

1. Lift your truck.
2. Make sure your lifted truck is red.
3. Tint your lifted red truck, including (oh dear oh dear) the windshield.

I got a fix-it ticket from the UHP in Utah a couple of years ago in my truck when my tint was just one shade darker than factory. My boss had a tinted windshield in his Maxima and the UHP actually impounded the thing. I don't want to predict bad luck for you and your relationship with the men in the Crown Vics, but I would get that windshield tint off today!

Oh, and add-a-leaf so there's no butt sag. Beautiful truck, though; I'd do the same thing except for the fact that, hmmmmmm, oh yeah - I have no where near 8K sitting around waiting to be spent.

Oh yippie, lots of questions for ya.

First of all, I am thinking about going with that combo but a total of 9" of lift on 37's or 38's. Can you spin the tires off the line? I am guessing you have the 3.73's, how does the power feel? Can you beat a stock hemi with that setup?

How do you like the Brute Force Intake?

The Mud Grapp's, I have been looking at them forever, ever since Sal had them, I've wanted them. How do they perform offroad? How loud are they at highway speeds, does it interfere with normal conversation? I have driven an 05 Dodge Ram (5.7L Hemi) with 35" Mud Grapplers (test drive) and while on the highway I hardly paid attention to the noise. It had 3.92 gearing, it was a DOGGGGG, much slower than the 5.4L 3v stock (and we all know how much of a dog they are stock). That is the reason I am asking if it's fast with the 3.73 gearing + all the mods you have.

Beatiful truck bud, looking forward to your future mods.

I really would like to hear what you think about both the Nitto Mud Grapplers and the AEM Brute Force intake? Any cells with the intake? How is the noise with both?

I've never driven a heavily modded 04-05 F150, so I don't know what kind of "power" everyone here speaks of. I do, however, know what kind of power a Hemi has, so I'm pokin in the dark here
