 Right now she isnt worth much in the mud, but strong as an ox. I will upgrading tires shortly, going to a more aggressive mud terrian type, kinda hard to get into the good duck hunting spots with street tires. I will be adding a grill guard. and that's about all. Rick

Joshua, can't help but notice a LOT of frame twist in those articulation shots. pretty typical w/ those loooong ford frames. might want to weld in a rollbar or something to stiffen it up, before it starts stress-cracking. pretty truck though. Are there any dove flyin around that 3000 acres??????? tight lines -Brian

Yea the old ford frames have never been known for their strength..they are actually C frames and not full box frames...most of the trucks that I have been privileged to work on whether it be lifting or lowering we would usually box most of the frame in..only a few times did we have to add crossbraces...

I will be adding a grill guard. and that's about all. my buddy has the same truck and he never had a problem in the mud . at the same time, i will never understand why chevy and ford put those crappy street tires on 4x4s.
