On a more positive not I picked up a 4 inch front suspension lift for it today for 120 bucks the guy needed money to pay his water bill so i got a steal then I'm going to get some f250 rear leaf springs which will make it level
Ya it's all back together I have started it yet I have been busy with work and school but I'm going to try and start it within the hour I have free time I will try a post a video of it running sometime today or tomorrow
Well it wouldn't start don't know if it's not getting gas or what I'm going to try and figure it out tomorrow and it was leaking water out of the thermostat area I'm pretty sure it's just the new gasket I put on there I didnt put any gasket sealer which it probably need
ya i did work on it i have a dead battery from sitting for three weeks and i tried jumping it but it was really dead and it would start and then i found a water leek coming from the thing where it sends water to the heater if that makes sense there is like a metal tube and that has a whole in it so im going to run to the junkyard in the morning and get that piece and put it in and my dad is taking the battery to work to chare since it has to have a special charger since its a optima battery. its so frustrating im so close to starting its killing me i just want to drive it lol
figured id check in on your progress, havent checked this thread in awhile. sounds ike your getting real close to having her up and running. if it was in the thread somewhere and i missed it i apologize, its late and i got a decent buzz on :shock: but did you get the frame fixed yet ? or the lift kit installed ? just curious. seems like all my friends down here hate on ford trucks, but i have always thought they made a hell of a tough truck.
Ya It's getting close and no net yet im waiting to see what happens when I start the truck to see if any more problems come up before I fix something like that I decided that I was just going to have a shop fix the frame instead of me and the lift should be on in a few weeks if I can find some decent 33s for a cheap price. I don't want to put the lift on til I have the tires
