Looks like the trucks front wheels are brown and filthy from brake dust. Your stang is sweet! But there is nothing like a lifted truck.

I agree with MercedesTech, find a nice stock truck and build it to your liking.
there are a lot of lifted 4x4 trucks that never see mud. i used to have a 2000 f350 psd with 8" lift and 38's and never once did that truck leave the road. a lot of people dont like to spend all that money to just go tear it up.

but that is a nice looking truck i would say go for it. i do agree with you about the 22's but just run out the tires and then buy new rims and tires. i have a mustang too but nothing beats a big truck.

That's a nice truck, but I too would be a little skeptical of someone else's project. Does he have receipts for the stuff/installation? That could be a big deciding factor. For the hell of it, I'd start advertising the 'Stang for sale and jack the price a little...you may sell it for more than you expect or at least get some feelers for what the market will bear since you need to sell that first.

Where in Orlando is the truck? I may have to swing by and drool in person

hahhaha... i got timeout


and 05fx4.. its in lakemary/sanford on 17-92 right after the 417 bridge on your right if you are going towards downtown sanford.. its parked in a city electric supply company.. you can see it right off the road...


and about buying someone elses project.. ya.. i agree.. but its all about how much im gunna have to spend.. if i find something cheaper, than yea, ill buy stock and build it my self.. than i know how well the lift was torqued down, and the tires/wheels are maintained and rotated/balanced..

i agree 100% with that.. but for that setup, seems to be the right price.. havnt seen anything else like it for that price..

also thinking about trying to sell those wheels/tires.. and buy 20" rockstars and 37" toyo Open country

Get it checked out as others say. Tough decision. See if you can get him down a few K if you really want to buy it

I will have to take a look at it when passing that area.

I love that section of SR 417...oh yeah, that's because I designed it!

I designed SR 417 from where it used to end at US 17/92 to the end of the bridge over Old Lake Mary. I also worked on Airport Blvd. from 17/92 to CR 46A.
