Here is my 1991 F350 CCLB 4x4 7.3 IDI. I picked her up about 4 months ago and have gone through lots of maintenance items. She is a little rough on the outside, just faded paint and minor surface rust. Mechanically, she is awesome and overall just a sweet truck!
How I found her:
After getting some General Grabber X3's in 315/75r16 flavor on some black rims:
And a recent shot with the camper:
My plan is to use this thing to roam Texas and the Southwest for years to come. I love the versatility of this aluminum camper shell that I picked up. It is just me, my wife, and our border collie O'Reilly. We love to get out and explore and I LOVE landscape photography. I am situated west of San Antonio about 2 hours, which puts me in a prime spot to get lots of places in the Hill Country, out to the Big Bend are, and even scamper out to the southwest and sometimes Colorado.
Things I have already fixed:
Rebuilt fuel system
Rebuilt AC system
Rebuilt front steering, all new parts, new redhead steering gearbox
Install Leer Utility camper shell
New Kenwood Headunit and front JBL speakers (priorities! gotta have some tunes)
Solid rear Diff Cover
Warn Manual Hubs
Electric fuel pump install
New Fuel System
Oil Cooler reseal
Current things on order or waiting to be installed:
RSK 2.25, U code spring, B code SPrings, and fox 2.0's- this should get me level and help the ride out a ton. Track bar as well
Reflectix in camper shell
Seal camper shell
Mount lights in shell
mount exterior lights
run house battery system
install switches and electrical
install headlight relay system
build sleeping platform
mount spare tire
build cupholder/ front console
Things to do (future) or order:
Repaint truck to fleet white
order driving lights
vent fans for camper shell
Turbo install (Big Maybe, but would really like some extra power for highway travel)
super duty seat upgrade
Front bumper with winch
rear bumper with swingout carrier
rear locker
on board air
sub install
vinyl flooring
I know I am missing alot, but I will update this as time permits and do my best to document her as she grows and morphs!
Feel free to comment, give suggestions, encouragement, disapproval, etc!
