Yep, and no one got hurt either. It's nice to have people working on your truck that know how to take care of it and have the same passion for detail and care that you do. You usually don't get that when you take it somewhere to be worked on.

Just load up and take a nice vacation! The shakles themselves ar not too bad of a chore, the wedges to keep the pionion alignment are a bigger pain. Of course, none of it was too difficult when you can sit back with a cold ice water and watch.

I mean literally, an ice water. Pam loaded a cooler with drinks and ice. It had been iced down for about 3 hoursorso and the first water I pulled out was frozen. It was good though!

Maybe someday I will...

Looks like Pam came prepared... no slacking that day at all. You took over for her and kept that chair nice and warm

She brought 2 chairs for us. I have some pretty good pics of her doing her share of slacking!

HAHAH...Busted

Now what do you think will happen next? I think a PTM valence and mirror caps would be an incedible addition.

The plan right now is to replace this grille with a Patman grille as soon as he gets it finished. It will be the same honeycomb but without the Ford emblem. The girille, the valance and upper bumper cover will be painted red as wll the mirror caps. The only thing not red on the front will be the chrome strip in the middle of the bumper. Also, on the tailgate, she plans on getting a red overlay for the Ford emblem.

That will look sweet. BTW, the pic of your truck makes me positive mine will look perfect with the 20's. That is exactly the look I want. Too bad those darn Roush wheel are so expensive

Thanks! I love the Roush wheels. I could not believe what I paid for these. I found them on the Dallas craigslist. Paid $675 and that included the nearly new tires. Keep an eye out, you see deals like that occasionally. No way I would pay anything near the price of new ones. There have been a couple of sets in the site classifieds. The Roush quality is excellent.

Yeah I'll keep my eyes peaed. 700 for one with a tires is way too pricey. Even ebay has some that are a bit pricey. Ill keep searching and if I don't find them, maybe the wheel/tire place around here will have a similar type of wheel. I like subtle wheels in chrome that are not overbaord. No crazy bling bling here
