It may look like a turd, but it goes like stink.
When I bought the truck it was half put together, since then I have sorted out half the problems, so that means it must be 3/4's of a truck.
I'm running 35x12.5-16.5 E range mud tires on 16.5x8" aluminum rims with 6" military wrapped front springs, and 4" rear blocks over tough country traction bars. The F-350 package provided me with a sterling 10.25" rear axle with factory limited slip, and a dana 60 front axle. The Borg Warner 1356 chain drive transfer case is tight as long as can convince the muncie T-19 transmission to shift.
The origonal 460ci v8 was replaced at 150,000miles and the new engine has just under 30k on it. The real fun begins with a Summit 750cfm carb, weiand stealth intake, performer rpm cam, roller rockers, horley stainless headers, full duel exhaust with flowmaster 40 mufflers, ford racing spark plug wires, E3 plugs, petronics distributor, accel coil, aluminum radiator, and flex fan.
What the needs truck needs is lockers for the axles, more articulation from the suspension (I am thinking front coilovers with a 5-link and re-arched rear springs), paint (desparately needs paint, even the primer is peeling), and perhaps a weiand 8-71 blower for more power later down the road.
