Future mod list

This is the future mod list I've come up with. It's going to take me a while to get it all done, but when it's done I'll love it. Thoughts would be cool!


F150 Future Mod List

In no particular order, just as they came to my mind!

1. 3" Skyjacker lift
2. 35" Nitto Mud Grapplers
3. 20" Black Wheels
4. OEM Ford Fx2 Headlights
5. Tinted or LED Tailights and 3rd Break light
6. PTM Front and Rear Bumper
7. Leather Covered Seats
8. Tuner
9. Intake
10. Magnaflow Hi Flo Cats
11. Re-Gear?
12. LMI Seat lift, with Box for under seat
13. Bigger Amp for Subs
14. Fog Light HID Conversion Kit
15. Hi/Lo Beam conversion kit
16. Amp to speakers, or Component speakers with amp
17. Reverse Camera
18. Grille Guard
19. Line X bed liner
20. Paint tool box black, or new one.
21. Supercharger??

Probably more, that's what I got off the top of my head, and BTW I'm going with a kind of blackout theme. But with tan leather!

I'll get it all done eventually, will take several years. That's part of the fun, right?

dont waste the money on the skyjacker kit, most people get just as much lift out of bilsteins or an AS, both with an AAL

pretty good list...hope you get them all. the ones above caught my eye though.

#1
...just get a conventional leveling kit. The Skyjacker (or Readylight) is a waste of money. You can achieve the same result for 1/2 the price or more.
#10
why? your stockers are plenty good enough. even with custom tuning, you won't gain anything by doing this.

only do if you end up accomplishing #21 IMO
#21
they rock

the best mod I've ever done on any vehicle

Thats a big list. As others have said I would not waste the money on the Skyjacker kit, go with a 2.5" AutoSpring it will only run you $80 and rear block kit is around $120. Thats $200 vs. a 500 or 600 for only 1/2" more lift. Otherwise you could go with the 4" Rancho lift.

Procharger or F250...The jury is still out but I am about due for a new truck. I've had this one over a year and put 20K miles on it.

Ah, if I was to get the 2.5" and the block, on a 2wd would I be able to fit 35s?. I assume I would be able to?

Thanks guys, yeah. You are probably right about the hi flo cats, unless I supercharge it, probably a waste of money!

probly not, why not just spend 1100 and get a 6'' procomp and have no issues at all running 35's at all?
