HELLO FROM TX (and F150forum)

hey yall, finally made the switch from F150 forum, too many lifted trucks there for my liking

been lurking from google search over here and i like it better!!

well, im a former RANGER enthusiast (well, i still am) and i threw a rod in my ranger and it has now turned into a project (bagging) and i bought my first fullsize almost two years ago...

its a 2008 FX2 SCREW, white and black w/43,xxx on the clock
(STORMTROOP'D)

i have done every mod to it myself!!! they include:

-DJM 3.5 LCA's and DIY spring perch flip w/calmax shox (about 6")
just installed as of last week
-solid back window swap
-harley tails
-stereo (pioneer head, amp & audiobahn 10's)
-09+ FX2 fender markers
-plasti-dipped tailgate markers
-cherry bomb side exit (welded by yours truley)
-small odd and ends (bulbs, k&n, rainx, ziptied cowl mod)

only mod i didnt do was window tint

SO.......Heres some pics before and after











well, hope you enjoyed!! and im glad to now be a part of this forum!!
