Project 1994.5 F250

[7.3psd97444]

Looks to be a good project. Curious, why are you going with a 3 inch body lift?
I try to steer people away from them as they look retarded. IMHO. You will see to much of the frame and there will be gaps front and back you would need to cover. And Ive seen "covered" gaps like for example on the front in between the bumper and the rock gaurd under the grille, and they look really goofy and no where near as clean. The 4 inch sus. lift will be great. Easily clear 35's. Or go 6 inch lift, clears 37's.

We'll check it out when I come over but almost looks like you'll need ball joints homie.

I was thinking that too. Hey when you come over being some floor jacks we got a body lift to remove!

Well i should be picking up a backseat for the truck this weekend! $40 and it is mint!

 

[TheSmokinStroke2002]

Bed will be going home this weekend! I have my old set of 35" master crafts that are going on some steel wheels, the body lift is coming off and going to mike at mikes diesel performance.

By the end of the summer I will be getting factory Alcoas, a new drivers side fender, and the center jump seat.

Big thanks to MattP, Yodersstrokin96, countryboyrob, cat_rebel, and oneofakindsd for all of the help thus far. I'm sure there are more but this wouldn't be going together this quick if it wasn't for these guys.

Where did you find a bed like that? I need one bad and CL is turning up junk.

 

[TheSmokinStroke2002]

buddy of mine had it laying around from where his dad totalled the truck in the front.

I need the fuse panel cover for the truck! if anyone has one let me know! grey preferably!

But on a positive note, me and cat got the truck going! Un plugged the glow plugs and gave it a few little sprays of ether and she fired right up within about 30 seconds of cranking! Idled great and rev'd up just fine!

I got the truck in the garage tonight I am going to attempt putting the clutch up and getting the transmission mounted up. Kind of nervous being its my first time working with one of these transmissions!

For the interior of the truck? Get me your cell Konnor and I will get you the number of a guy who has one. It's tan, but interior paint is cheap.

Prob ain't run in well over a year but it idles surprisingly smooth. More proof the old 7.3s just don't give a $hit.

 

[Buffalo444]

Turns over nice and quick, it got a new starter?

Have you guys idled it up at all, see if it maintains that smoothness thru the rpms?
