[QUOTE="Tonka350, post: 175716, member: 1496"] this is the build thread of my truck ( from beginning to now, a 3 year stretch )....a few friends of mine wanted me to do a build thread, you're welcome here it is....I had to redo ALL of it......YOU'RE WELCOME DOUG AND PAUL!!! LOL. we'll start with the beginning....when gas was 4.xx a gallon I was driving a 99 f250 extended cab longbed on 44's and money was tight since I was only an E3 in the airforce with an upcoming family....my friend was looking for a new truck and we went to the dealership to look at an 04 crew cab longbed 4x4 xlt f250. the dealership told us about his gorgeous red 2000 f350 crew cab with a 4" skyjacker, 305/xx/16 tires and 16x12 eagle 058 wheels, 4" exhaust, air helper springs, gooseneck hitch and custom stereo system. well my wife and I talked it over and I was signing papers on a 2000 f350, but before signing papers they wanted to give me only 4000 dollars trade in on my 99 f250, so I kept my lift, wheels and tires ( at the time the truck was on 11" of lift and 38x15.50x16.5 pj's and 16.5x12 weld stonecrushers ), I also kept my front bumper, billet ac knobs and a few other goodies...and the deal was done. I had a new addiction............diesel engines. here's how it looked when I brought it home. [ATTACH=full]73440[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73441[/ATTACH] about a month later I was welcoming another new addition on 16 january 2009, my beautiful baby girl...and another new addition which we happened to fall upon...a set of 24x12 rockstars on 37x13.50x24 toyo open country MT's....I found them on craigslist the night we brought my daughter home and I traded 900 dollars cash and my 38's for them...my wife( she's a diesel supporter enthusiast as well )...rode down to Virginia Beach with me to pick them up and we were there until 10 pm swapping wheels and tires here's how it looked than. [ATTACH=full]73442[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73443[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73444[/ATTACH] a few months later I was due for a change....we went home to Michigan and I found a new company...CERTIFIT. I picked up a grille, headlights, and headerpanel for a 2005 for 236 dollars...and the swap began after I got back to Va and found a bumper. [ATTACH=full]73445[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73446[/ATTACH] and this is how I left it for a 6 month deployment to Kuwait....while there my wife decided she wanted to help me do some things to it.....17" flipdown monitor, rear 40/20/40 seat conversion and 5" turbo back exhaust with 8" tip, 08 mirrors, new grille [ATTACH=full]73447[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73448[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73449[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73450[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73451[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73452[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73453[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73454[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73455[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73456[/ATTACH] right before my truck made a 1000 mile road trip from Melbourne Florida ( where my wife was staying while I was deployed she bought me a new hood ) [ATTACH=full]73457[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
