Thanks man. I was out in her all weekend long at a couple car shows. It was a good time despite being 95 both days. Had some guy come up to me and told me he wanted to shoot my truck for free.

Wow! I just read all 50 pages none stop and this is crazy. You’ve put so much work into this, and she looks beautiful. All I can say is my jaw will forever be dropped when I see this… such a great job.

Nope. Just used a couple fittings to bring the size up big enough for the hose to be hose clamped onto it.

*note* the tank i use is a pressureless tank. And will not work with a stock setup. I have eletronic fans and keep them on constantly or close too to keep the water temp below 200 at all times.

very nice build man! I'm just finishing up a complete teardown and suspension overhaul on my lightning. New to the site, just been on the lightning forums, so its nice seeing a few other bagged F150's on a forum for a change.

Pre under the knife pic for my Truckin Cover coming out in a few months
