Hey everyone, FNG here. I picked up a 99 XLT AWD with the 5.4, 3.73 limited slip, 170k.
Am going to be doing a lot of work on it this summer. First up will be headgaskets (yay). Already fixed the intermittent odometer. Did the Gotts mod. Removed steps and side trim.
Will be lifting it this summer as well (rear spacers, front torsion links) and running 285/75r16s (want to keep stock wheels). While doing the front pads and rotors today I discovered that this truck used to have the airbags. Looks like it has the Strutmasters kit. When I do the lift, do I keep the coil over shocks? Then for the rear, just replace the struts with the +2" Ranchos?
I read the stickied post in the suspension forum but didn't see the answer.
Minus the head gasket leak, Im really liking this truck.
Sorry if this has been beat to death, my google-fu is weak.
