Did you tint the front windows or am i seeing things?

Those tires look pretty sweet, you'll have to let me know how well they are in the snow.

The truck came with factory tint, but you may just be seeing things

It probably says but what wheels are those? And do you have any pics of your exhaust set up? Like under the truck? I am trying to do something with mine and that looks really good.

The wheels are Ultra 164's I will take pics of my exhaust tomorrow, and post them up.

Thanks man....where did you get the wheels from? I am looking to get something like that when I get new ones and I think they look really good.

After seeing this truck I think I need to invest in a color matched grille.

Well, not much to report on the 2011, besides some new HID appearance headlights.

But I have a small problem now, I bought a 90 ranger 2.9L 4x4 last night, for $50... lol And it has no brakes at all. we filled the master cylinder, and its holding fluid, but theres still no brakes, and it seems that the pedal is a bit hesitant to come back up?

 

[kurama49]

Looks good man!

You should get some Plasti-dip and paint it to look like the FX4, I've wanted to do that just for the fun of it.

Plasti-dip your fenderflares they said.

It'll be fun they said...

it went on like CRAP. ran like hell, came out lumpier than can be, and does not just "Peel off." that was a good 3 hours scrubbing that fenderflare!

Looking at that last picture makes me want to be by the water again.

Well, after tonights adventure, I realllly want 4x4 again... lol... theres a wrecked 2000 in the JY, and i was looking at both their frames, it looks like everything from a 4x4 will bolt up to my 2wd? I understand I'll have to get a new tranny, and find a transfer case since i want to keep my 5spd, and the one in the jy is auto, but, is it possible? ... oh also the adventure was 1km alongside a set of train tracks and then another 4 kms into the woods to rescue by buddys woods jeep.. lol ... he wouldent take his new 2011 rubicon into rescue it cause he was scared he'd get stuck, I showed him up in my truck. lol anywho, is it possible? I'd also be trying to put in a manual transfercase.

Welp, my truck got a pretty big boo-boo today... someone backed into me while i was in a corner store getting a monster.. Put a huge hole in the bumper and cracked it pretty good. the person drove off before i came out, so :/ sucks. anywho, question is, I have the tubing to make a pre-runner bumper, do i do that, or go through insurance, have it go up, and get a new one put on?.. Oh and another thing. my brakes seem REALLLLLY soft. I dont get pressure until my pedal is halfway to the floor, sometimes 3/4ths, and yet ford tells me this is normal, or its because of the MASSIVE tires on it is it normal, or is there air in my brake lines? which it feels like, because if i pump them, I'll get a little more pressure
