Ive seen those. They look pretty cool. I think the adapter/MRAP wheels from AeroContinental would be the way to go

Thanks for all the input so far. I think in the long-run, a 1-ton truck (F350) would be the way to go. It's a lot of truck (especially with the 6.7) I tried to spec it out on Ford.com and could only get it with 3.55 gears and locker. On Edmunds.com, I could spec out with 4.30 gears. Kinda...

That's a good way to get a hold of him. I know he keeps pretty busy. You can even send him a message on here: Maxterra

Ha! Yeah, there are some behemoths out there. I like the Oliver Travel trailers. They make some pretty nice trailers. I'm kinda 50/50 on the F150/350 dilemma lol

I was going to go the route with Aero-Continental. Quite a bit to think about. No kids here :) I just took a nice severance package from my former employer and doing contract work at the moment and moving on to something I would be happier with in the long-run. The schedule is two weeks...

If you have any questions at all, Dave will steer you straight

Thanks guys, Ive been doing some looking at the super singles and have seen some stuff from Rickson, Stazworks and Buckstop. 550 is a heckuva lot more truck! I like the looks of a custom flatbed camper something along the lines of Phoenix. I know Aero-Continental here in Bozeman is making...

My last post I was trying to decide whether I might be better served by an F150 or Super Duty, I was thinking of an F450 or 550 cab-chassis and custom flatbed with storage underneath and fold down sides. What is the process and average cost to switch from a DRW to SRW ? Or would I be better...

Stazworks in Merrillan, WI (North-Central part of the sate) might have something you are looking for. I've heard good things about them when I lived back home :) http://www.stazworks.com/

here are a few photos I just snapped. sorry for the quality but it's about the best i can do with the phone. Hope this shows how low it really is. There are two bolts (1 carriage bolt through the rail and 1 (along with a bushing) that is inboard of the rail attached to another cleat which is...

No offence taken. I am just saying that you came off as being rather smug. However, I should have said it is one of the lowest... it's the next closest thing to mounting directly to the rails. and yes, the tray is a good mounting system in my opinion.

I believe you are right. I am trying to find the right combo. The process is a bit confusing. I am curious if you can make some selections (with help of dealer) that you can't just make (on-line). That HD Package is a nice option. For the life of me, I can't recall where I saw it, but there...

Those are some good points. I'm still on the fence about the 3.5. I don't care about resale because I keep most of my vehicles til they give up the ghost. As for the 35s, my concern was the ability to fit without trimming or buying new fiberglass fenders. Whathe, if anything goes will I need...

Well, of course, I understand that as well. As I mentioned in another thread, a close friend of mine that's worked on my vehicles for 20+ yrs has been a Ford Master tech for over 30yrs told me some of the stories he sees when it comes to the EB. He says that they are a good engine but there's...

Well, I just want to build a project truck. It'd be new and just want something different as for the 3.5TT, they are nice but not gonna own one out of warranty. I'm giving thoughts to what I want with the suspension and what I really need vs. Want. The tru-trac is a possibility and the...

Thanks guys. The reason I don't mind the V8 Is because I know I'll add a supercharger to it. My buddy that's been a Ford master tech for 30+ years says the EB is a good engine but he would not own it out of warranty. That being said, I trust his judgement and he's been working on my vehicles for...

The plot doth thickened....

It's a nice to have option, when you need it for those rare occasions lol

Ive been contemplating that as well. The reason I've come to terms with this route, I get a V8 (which I would add a supercharger and headers/exhaust) Custom Currie 9.75 rearend or Custom Rockjock 70. and a 6.5ft bed. Of course, I could change my mind tomorrow. I don't need a new vehicle every...
