Personally, I would suggest the 03-04 all clear lights........ I never liked the 05-07 nose on the supeduty........ but, if you like, rock it......

With the black grille, the "blackout" headlights would be really sharp!

I may change them later, no budget for mind changes at this point.
right now im looking at a bill for offset rims.
gonna keep the DRW axles but going to go SRW until I can get it painted.

and shes a runner.
gonna wait till taxes to come back to get rims and tires.
going to rebuild the front end, it needs steering, and hubs at the minimum,
but I think im going to replace ball joints axle u-joints, seals, vacuum lines, and even thinking about lifting it 4" before I get rims and tires.
going to replace rear bearings and seals as well.
some of these parts have been sitting for a number of years, and need to be addressed.
not to mention the moving it around with my forklift has beat the steering up.
but its a runner and put together!!!
next up, another 4 door bronco and ranchero!

I think paint is overrated. lol
I wont be painting this truck for a few years.
I don't care about the looks, I care about the performance and the ability to take this thing on the drives I intend to make.
my goal has been achieved, and now that its a runner, its going to be sidelined and im on to the next project.

its fricken horrible right now lol
brake rotors are warped, hubs growl,
no rear shocks.
front shocks are done.
I need to do some work on the trans.
shell shift through all the gears and then lug when I tap the fuel.
until I hit the throttle hard, then shell kick down and take off.
I used the wrong HPOP res gasket, and it wouldn't seal on the front cover,
so I had a fat oil leak to deal with.
front belt squeels like nothing else,
but it runs, drives, 99% together.
I cleaned the shop today, and then
pushed the chero in the shop, time to do some metal work.
