    New Front Bumper

    the only problem with those bumpers is that unless you put on the side skirts and change the rear bumper the side will look really off. those are from a complete body kit that is designed to give a wider and lower appearance to your truck. the gen 1s look good with the whole kit but not at...

    lifted third gen question

    ya thats why i cant see buying them on a may or may not work. but then may have same issue with control arms. and being the abuse they are made to take may need to change everything from the frame out so a real lift may just be cheaper in the long run.

    lifted third gen question

    since i lifted my 07(three inch spacer), my upper control arm is just about touching the spring and if i hit a bump right it makes a light clunking sound. i think its the arm and spring touching. does anyone else have this happen?

    Going to paint it...need some advice

    Going to paint it...need some advice

    dupli color makes decent stuff. as far as satin or flat or semi-gloss you have to decide how flat or shiny you want. top of the can will give you somewhat of an idea but you can sometimes change it a tiny bit depending on coats/thickness

    Going to paint it...need some advice

    biggest thing is prep. CLEAN it really good. use a quality paint too. light scuff with a scotch brite pad and clean it again. also an adhesion promoter is always a good idea.

    time for new tires

    Went with the falken high country. Got a good deal at my old work 305/50/20 for $214 each and no mount or balance charges. Did a little light wheeling today and they seemed good so far. Towed a trailer about 120 miles on them sat. No complaints so far.

    Light bar fitment

    i tried looking at one of my buddies f150 before and it looks like the mounts may work but we would have to cut out the cross bar in the middle of the lower grill opening. never put a tape to it though, just eyeballed

    Tire Balance...Beads

    hmm. i never had an issue. must depend on the vehicle or size tire. or they didnt put the correct amount in yours. i know not all sizes are listed with the amount to put in since it was mostly designed for commercial trucks.
