Really enjoying this build. It is very similar to what Im trying to do with my truck. Nice to see another Super Duty getting built.

Its been a little while since I posted, but Ive gotten a few things done to my truck. Those that follow me on Instagram will have already seen most of these pics, but for those of you who don't, here they are. First up, I finally added some real backup lights to the truck. With the addition of...

I vote for keeping the truck. You can check out my build thread, it's slow, but coming along. I also described thr work I've has done to my 6.0l, I feel it's bulletproof now and never hesitate to jump in and drive it anywhere.

I installed the mounts with the nuts and bolts and washers that came with the kit. So there are washers and nylock nuts on the other side. Was tight getting my hands/wrench in there, definitely a 2 person job. But it was worth it. And with the rhino liner on the bed, it doesn't flex or move...

While I don't believe my F350 is too modified (in fact, my list of "wants" is longer than my list of "haves")... but, I did just recently swap out my brand new BFGs on stock tires for my old 16x12s and mud tires (not a lot of life left, got the stockers for driving it around LA).. but, it is a...

Well, we knocked out another trip. First one since I got the additions made recently. Worked out pretty nice. Didn't get to use everything the way I would have liked, but we were too busy hiking and exploring the desert. Sometimes I get so wrapped up in mods, and figuring out what I want to...

I forgot all about this thread when we were loaded up completely. But the pics show it decently well. Only thing missing was the ice chest and another one of the clear totes full of dry food stuffs.

Mine is also a long bed F350, but I just bit the bullet, and drilled some holes in the bed of the truck to mount mine. It works well. And when we sleep in the back, it surprisingly doesnt get in the way. *note, it looks like my jack is sitting at an angle, but it is level. Its the bed rail...

I have the Thule Xsporter racks on my F150. They came with the truck, but I really like them. They adjust nicely. I used them to haul ladders with at my previous job. I would recommend them to anyone needing something like this. I especially liked when I had to carry one of my shorter extension...

Last time i weighted my truck, I had a bigger tool box (tho both are aluminum, and have the same gear inside, which is a lot of trailer hitches and chain and shackles and tools that weigh quite a bit), hi-lift, full tank of fuel, and 16x12s with some dunlop mud tires, it weighed in at around...

I just roll mine up, and keep them all in a nylon stuff sack, like one would us for a sleeping bag. (tho I carry quite a few tie downs, probably more than I really need)

I hope my 4" will be fine. I do worry a little about weight, but Im not really sold on the aluminum version, for almost $1000 more, is worth it. Plus, I like the idea of steel bumpers, especially when i have to take it out in LA traffic. lol How much would you say the bumper + winch weighs? I...

I just added up the price of the bumper itself, and the winch, and lights, to do it all at once. With their fate rate like $199 shipping, its just under $5k. (outback bumper, 16.5k winch, 2 pairs of Rigid 4" bars for the lights). Ive thought about doing it in steps, but the price differences...

I think you pretty much answered all of my questions with one quick post. lol I usually like to buy local, sometimes even if it costs more, because I'm terrible about wanting instant gratification. Plus, living in an apartment, i don't always trust receiving packages here, especially if I'm...

Couple more pics of my rack... I want to mount solar panels on the expanded steel portion of the rack over the cab. I have posted in the 12v section for some opinions and recommendations for that project. Im also going to have to cut the rack back a few inches. May need to employ Raul B's...

So, I finally got a ladder rack for my truck. It fits over the camper shell and extends to the cab roof lights on my CCLB F350. Though I will probably cut it down a couple of inches, as i don't see my roof lights lasting very long. Its VERY close to them, and with a truck this long, Im sure...

Oh, it could take another 10 years...but at this point, the bumper is the single most expensive thing I still really want to do. And The wife and I plan on having kids in the not too distant future, so I want to get it now, while we are still able to save up that kind of cash. After that, it'll...

You have seen my build thread, and where I am going with my truck. I do plan on adding one of those tents that are free standing, but also attach to the back of the truck (or SUV or car), so we have a "set up camp site" even when we take the truck out exploring, as well as to have stand up room...

Is that jack from Harbor Freight? Do you think it would handle lifting the front of a Super Duty? Id like to do something like this myself, but with a big, heavy, diesel, I don't know if I can trust that jack....

And, for my next update.... So, its been a while. Still recovering after the wedding, so things aren't happening at too fast of a pace lately. But I have done a few things recently. I took my F350 up north to visit family over the holidays. While I was there, made a few additions to the truck...
