Hello from California

Hello everyone. My name is Aaron And I’m in SoCal, I inherited my Dads 2004 Ford F-150 XLT 5.4L Triton. Needless to say I will be keeping it and looking to upgrade. I did however put tires rims and shocks on it 2 years ago because it was still all original and worn out. I’m looking to do a lift, engine performance and replace all lights with leds. Basically I am looking for suggestions on what aftermarket parts are tried and true for this year? Also any suggestions on improving the truck for off roading would be appreciated. Lastly the truck runs strong and no tapping noises as I know that was a problem with this year. Thanks for the help

Welcome!

I'd ask around town to see if you can get a paint job. Maybe Rhinoline or Line-x parts of your truck's body. Just a gentle suggestion.

Good suggestion. It is on the list but not a huge priority seeing how I live in the desert lol. But ya my goal is to keep the overall same skeem with a color match rhino liner

How did you wear out the rims?
