Man, its been a while since I have been on this board. I have been wheeling a few times, nothing to hard core, I passed on a chance yesterday to go to Peterson's Ultamate adventure (due to work and university)with my brother so i am a little bitter. I have not done anything to crazy to the ford, but I will update......

lets see, I cut and shaved the old shock mounts and raised them, as i hated dragging them on stuff, I also added rs 5000's and made a axle truss for the 8.8.

 

I then got a Warn xd-9000 winch, and decided to make a rear mount (since I already have a front winch) and I fabbed that up. (the first pic hase the license plate down, and the second has it rotated up on the little hinges I mounted it on).



Lets see, I also threw on some add-a-leafs to combat the extra weight of the winch, and the second battery (in the box), they also make the new 35" bfg mt's fit a little better.

 

Kinda wondering where you ended running off to. Truck looks good. Now if only I can get the same stuff for the Ranger. I was hoping to pick up an M8000 at Lima, OH jambo. If you ever feel like you don't want those 9000s I'd be more than glad to take them off your hands I like the truss, but I don't know if I go along with the rebar part of it. I've seen that stuff fail a little to easily for my taste, but thats just my feeling.

 

As with powerstroke, I've been wondering as well. I really like what you did with the shock mounts; I hate those things as well. Very interesting.
