I got a 3" PA body lift (have the gap guards ordered) and KMC chrome Brodie wheels with Nitto trail grappler 325/50R22 installed. Now it needs a good cleaning/detailing, especially the brakes now that you can see them. I'll put up a thread after I get pictures.

Looks like a nice clean fox. Doesn't take much to have an 11 second daily driver Mustang. These days to be a hitter you gotta be runing mid 9's.

Today I took my truck in for brake pad replacement, rotor resurfacing, and my power steering pump going bad. It's the funniest thing, and it started 2 months ago. I thought I was just low in fluid, but in finally getting time I took her to the dealer and I got a call back 6 hours later telling me it's the P/S pump digging it's grave. Luckily, my truck is an 07 with less than 32k and they are replacing it for me for free! Woohoo! Thank you warranty! Should see her back on Monday, in which until then I get to be driven to my destinations by my girlfriend in her 08 Sport Trac. I used to own an 02 Tacoma, but going with a bigger truck and much larger rear-view mirrors (and being 6'1"), I can't drive anything smaller than my F150 anymore.

vacuumed, cleaned and conditioned the interior.

ordered a gas door off of egay. wish I knew that the assembly was 2 pieces and not thrown it away.

tried to remove concrete with a second coat of sugar water. didn't work. so much for internet search solutions. If anyone knows how to remove concrete from paint please feel free to chime in. I've also read gojo without the pumice on this site but I'm skeptical at this point.

Gotts Mod

I did this Mod on my 05 FX4 today, at first I didnt see anything different when I went to the shell to gas up (had the kids with me). After dinner I took a ride to my buddies tattoo shop to get my ladder and wire for a side job, and WOW once I hit a straight away I was impressed! There is alot more get up and go, cant wait to add a new exhaust too. Hope the sidejobs start coming in.
have a good one everyone!
