Before & After Pics......

Thank you everyone for all the help!!! Without this forum I would not have known what tire size to go with.

Here are some quick pics I took of my truck. The truck is kind of dirty so bare with me. The before pics were with 265/70/17 tires at stock height.




Some afters with 295/70/17 nitto grapplers. I cranked the bars 4 turns & it gave me 1" lift. Not sure if you can tell or not.





And my other Ford......

Very nice.. Bigger tires make a world of a difference..

Also love your mustang.. I've got a 1988 GT myself. Original Owner.. Bought her New in late 87'. No dings or dents, all Original paint. Never seen rain or snow, garaged and covered now for 22years. I upgraded everything i could over the years, engine, suspension, brakes, audio. She still looks new or better than new.. DONT sell it!

Well I went to the alignment shop today & found out that my lower ball joints are bad. Now I have to replace them but should I go with motorcraft parts or something aftermarket?
