    FINALLY. Adapters showed up almost a month late. I primed and painted them to help minimize the rust and it simply looks better this way You can see these adapters requir you to hamer out your original wheel studs then press them in to adapters then you are able to bolt them tight from the...

    F450 4x4 adventure.

    Cobra cb radio. It's the kind that the unit hides behind the dash and the grand unit is everything u need. I mounted the connector in a little cubby on driver's side towards the middle. This will mostly be used when traveling with other rigs and easily removed when we are going solo. Looks...

    F450 4x4 adventure.

    So the lift in the rear is 90% done. Just need to weld the shock mounts back on the axle. Stock they sit very low and with the lift shocks are about 3/4 inch to short. So I cut the brackets off and shortened them a bit so they sit about 1.5 inches higher there for the stock new shocks I...

There is a little brass bushing part number 116531 that's replaceable I hope this helps with it being more firm. Some of my bushings were worn all the way through. Since the whole thing is...

    F450 4x4 adventure.

    At one point I installed light on the sides and in the back to help out when parking or packing in the dark. I think I'll add some more later for now it will do. And LED light bulbs in the headlight. Really wanted morimoto headlight but could not justify the cost. Led bulbs made a huge difference.
