That's freakin Bad A! I assumed the motor was some old v6 that somehow ended up in a screw haha. Gonna be throwing people off with the Cummins badges below the F150 ones haha

I put the truck on my scales before I took it all apart and it weighed 5640lb. Put it on them today and she weighed in at 6477 lb. not too much gain!!! I'm happy with it all and just gets better as I go.

what suspension setup did you use for the front?

did you just relocate the spring perches on the axle for the rear?

SIX I used 2001 F250 n yes the 150 has a wider frame so relocated perches and moved the locate hole n the block forward 1". I used my 150 top spring and the rest are 250. Cause the 250 are 1/4" wider. Built the front crossmember and recessed a 2x4x1/4wall up into my frame and then boxed it all in to look clean.

Six I'm building the truck. The engine is only turned up to close to 300hp.
Turned pump up 2.5 turns in and 40hp fuel pin , turned fuel star 2 rounds and doing an intercooler that it didn't come with factory. Should be a tug machine!! Lol

Got my Radiator made to fit under core support. This will make room so
I can run the clutch fan instead of Ele fan. Less ele to worry about failing

Thanks man! They were originally silver when I got them, but I got bored one day and spray painted them red haha. But I've grown used to it again so I'm considering changing them to a different color sometime ha.
