Scott's 2004 SuperCab Lariat 4x4

Well its time for a build thread for my truck. Most have already seen pics on here, but i just like to ***** it, so here is the build thread!

2004 F150 Lariat SuperCab 4x4
Oxford White w/ Arizona Beige
74k miles
Loaded with exception to Audiophile system and memory seats
heated tan leather seats
full length center console


Mods:

325/60R20 (35") BFG AT KOs
OEM 20" wheels from 06 Lariat
OEM Chrome Skull capped Tow mirrors with heat/signal/puddle lamp
Tonneau
spray-in bedliner
Hella 500FFs behind the grille hooked to high beams
2 1/2" Autospring leveling kit
RideRite AirSprings - Rear
XCal2 with VMP Tunes (87 performance & 87 towing)
True Dual Exhaust w/ Flowmaster 40s, Magnaflow X-Pipe, MagnaFlow Stainless tips
2010 F150 E-Fans


I found this truck on another F150 forum, seen it was a local truck (within 2 hours) and pm'd the guy. The wife and I met up with him, I test drove it, walked around it, and asked all the important questions like about spark plugs and coils which he has changed!

Here are the pics he had in the ad:











The seller was a great guy and even delivered the truck to me. He towed it with his replacement truck:





When I got it home, I was able to vacuum it, and wipe down with lemon cleaner on the interior. Then put my brand new F150 OEM slush mats in her, and put my Hellas behind the grille







I finally got to take my own pics of her and had a great location to do it!!

Added my 6k Hi/Lo HIDs in my headlights today. I had these as a gift for my old F150, but never put them in. Now waiting on my 6k fog light bulbs to get here as i have ballasts.

Finally had weather to wash the truck in! last weekend!!



it was getting dark. then got up the next day and hit the truck with my polisher! made my paint shine with my Dual Action Meguiar's Polisher.



G110V1 Dual Action Polisher
M105 (Fine Cut Compound) on 6 1/2" polishing pad
M205 (Ultra Finishing Polish) on 6 1/2" finishing pad
Hand waxed with Meg's NXT 2.0 Paste Synwax

Removed every swirl there was in the hood leaving a brilliant shine. Gonna hit the rest of the truck when the weather clears back up (it snowed the next day.) ill use the same process, BUT after the M105 and M205, ill hit it with #7 (Show car glaze pure polish, and then Hi-Tech Yellow Wax with the polisher, THEN hand wax with the NXT to seal it best

Hey Scott! Recognized you from the tinboats site. Congrats on the purchase. Now you gotta get a bigger boat! Did you sell the Ranger? I just bought an '08 Screw Lariat 4x2 and joined this forum. I gotta get some pics up. Mine's going to stay pretty much stock, but I've got a few additions in mind.

Ben

Is that how you pay for all your upgrades???
You should post contact info for your Truck Pimp so we can all afford to upgrade!
