Here are a few pics of the height of the back end before and after I install the helper Shox. Also some of the roof rack installed.

So we have had the MDX for about 2 weeks and have done a few upgrades already. Here is a list of what has been completed so far... Picked up the tires Falken A/T Trail 245/65/17 and some black steel wheels Scored a great deal on a used Rola basket for $100 Installed a set of the Odyssey helper...

We just sold our 2003 F250 5.4 4x4 single cab that we used as our business and weekend vehicle and it was getting 10 MPG at best. As we all know, gas prices are killing us and we drive close to 100+ miles daily. So do the math and you will see how much we are spending monthly, yeah it hurts! So...

I liked it the way it was before also, but it just looked dated with the old school pocket flares and sealed beam headlights.

So I decided to take the flares off and see how it looked without, I can easily put them back on. I think I am liking the cleaner look without them! Still on the fence.

Yeah those end links were trashed, I replaced with some Napa gold links, bushings and hardware. I like the newer mirrors also, I think it just makes it look like a newer current Superduty.

So, I bought the fender flares when I had the flatbed installed and I was trying to make the frontend look more aggressive to match the dually flatbed. Now that I installed a regular longbed, I fell that they are a little over the top. I am feeling that they should go by by! Should I keep them...

Just did a grill & headlight swap, I am very happy with the outcome!

Thanks, I will have to look into that!

The flares are just the bolt on style. The tires do rub, but very little and only at full turn.

I got quite a bit of work done on the truck today. Since the day we bought it, it had the dreaded exhaust manifold leak on the passenger side and sounded like total crap on startup and driving until it warmed up. So I picked up a new manifold, felpro gaskets, new studs and nuts. All of the old...

I honestly would not be comfortable towing more than 6,500 lbs, which is more than I will ever tow with it.

A few more pics of the drawers and bedslide.

We had custom rear springs installed, picked up a used Bedslide for $300 and started building custom 5ft drawers with extra storage. Here are some pics of our progress so far.....

After lifting it and adding the 35" tires it really killed the power, so we did some research and found the best upgrades that actually work for increasing power. SPD guarantees 35hp from their y-pipe and after removing the factory y pipe, you can see why it has such an improvement! We also...
