The story

The 9 inch Superlift (custom modified to fit pre-78 f-150s) and 3 inch body lift is more than enough room for the 38.5 TSL boggers. However, I plan on upgrading from 15 inch rims to 16.5 and 44's (boggers again) when I swap in the 14 bolt.

With the bigger tires, I plan on cutting out the front fenders and the bed so I have plenty of flex room to flex without hitting sheet metal.

.

Silver paint is done, looks beautiful, lets see how long it lasts. The interior is a lot nicer. I have new door weather strips and heater box on the way and a few other things. I installed a new RW slider, tinted, it looks good. — Aren Hansen
