Finally cleaned her up and got some decent pics...

I couldn't stand the dirt any longer, so I washed both the trucks today. Here are some better pictures of the new F250. You can see that the back really needs to come up a couple more inches. I'm debating on doing the add-a-leaf or setting up an airbag system since I do a lot of hauling in the bed. I haul 2800 pounds of water regularly, so it would be nice to take the pressure off the suspension.

Enough rambling, here are the pictures...





And finally, here is the view of my trucks that most of the locals get...

Is that the drop bracket kit? How much did that run you installed?

Beautiful trucks...

Regarding the 'Red' comment. Since you haul water around alot you might think about being a volunteer firefighter...

The Lil Red to get there fast if necessary or...

The Big Red to get the water and other HD supplies there.

Anyway - nice set-up!

The radius arm drop kit cost around $1400 and I upgraded the shocks to Bilsteen 5100's which ran another couple hundred. The install says it takes about 3 hours, but the dealership said they are on crack if they think it can be installed in that amount of time. They ended up taking about 11 hours, which I think is bull, but I'm not going to fight it.

Pagnew, that isn't a bad idea, maybe I can put on some burps and cherry's and blow through red lights when I feel like it.

Looks like it sits just right to me. Any higher in the rear and it wouldn't be level. Looks good.

Our trucks are twins! I love these tires...I wasnt originally supposed to get them but the Procomp Xtreme AT's were backordered for months and they didnt tell me until the truck was actually lifted. They offered me these tires for only 300 bucks more than I paid for 3 of the Procomps! Stoked! Hey when you get your stabilizer on let me know if it rubs on your panhard bar!
