    long wheel lugs

    thanks for the clarification look forward to hearing how it goes. if its not too much to ask think you could post up some before and after pics from the front of the truck to see the visual effect the spacers have versus a measurement?

    two 10" CVR kickers + Hifonics Amp

    I thought about goin all black but I like the chrome / stainless steel accents thats just me though and in PA its already illegal to tint beyond like 80% so I'm pushin it pretty hard with the 15% on my sides/back without hittin the windshield as well. I will admit I need to redo my tails since...

    grill gaurds.

    I like mine just got a cheap stainless steel one off ebay no drilling needed to mount it as it bolts to the factory tow hook location (moved them to the rear) and put some nasty KC's on it. Looks pretty sweet but as everyone else has said it doesn't make your rig indestructible the only time...

    ford expy 2003 5.4l xlt

    +1 I have same model/year and I used the Ford Motocraft not much of a price difference between them and others plus you don't have to run the risk of the non-factory ones being threaded wrong which will blow them out

    03' body cladding problem :/

    I painted my own get a couple cans of rustoleum primer color and clear at home depot and you can get it done pretty cheap. Just remove em and rough em up with sand paper. The key is keeping a steady stream and not getting drips but if you do thats what more sand paper is for. Also used the same...

    finally some pics of my system... The Punisher

    haha thanks man I appreciate it and ya they thunder my mirrors are merely decorative at this point with the amount of vibration they have. I'd strongly recommend the L7 platform though if you have enough to drop on it there's really no comparison to the volume I can put out except for the kicker...

    Power issue 03 5.4

    I agree with checking the COP's I've gotten that feeling before too when two of mine went bad where you can tell you're not getting the power you should be. Another worth while general maintenance thing to do while your in there is check the plugs themselves when I had to dig through mine I...

    03 Expy XLT 5.4 Exhaust question.

    I have an 03 XLT with the magnaflow performance catback kit and I love it. Not too loud and still gives you better performance while being relatively cheap I can't remember the exact figure but I got mine for under $350. Plus the stainless steel exhaust tip with the magnaflow performance exhaust...

    Which Leveling Lift Kit?

    i put the truxxx 3/2 lift and level kit in my 03 xlt and was pretty happy with the results although the install was kinda a pain as should be expected. as for other brands i dont really know how they stack up against the truxxx kit the deciding factor for me was it seemed to be the largest...
