Truck looks SO much better on the stock wheels, and I bet drives better too. Very nice!

It drives a lot better! I like a little poke but 20x14 with that offset was ridiculous plus stockers look so clean.

Back in 2014 I got rid of my 1992 2wd f350 srw 7.3 idi truck which was N/A and had 297k when sold.

Last week I acquired a 1994 F350 with 117k miles that was restored frame , suspension and body wise. Paint needs to be wetsanded and buffed still. New bed sides, core support, bumpers , tailgate skin, fenders, and door skins. All done right.

Immediately sold the goofy 20x14 inch wheels with stretched tires and put the factory alcoas and centercaps on equipped with firestone transforces…..

Leaf spring hangers, shackles, bushings etc. were replaced. Front suspension and brakes were done.

E4od was rebuilt with a transgo kit, hd clutches, and converter 5k miles ago.

Now, only thing untouched was the motor. Water pump was leaking profusely, bearing was completely shot.

Sooooo….

I ordered a new water pump, new zd9 gps, belt, and air filter.
Then I ordered Justins last cross over pipe upgrade for the factory turbo setup.
Thennnn I ordered a facet fuel pump and fp block off plate.
Then bought a turbo elbow from Mike Green to send off to Justin for the downpipe mod and heres where I am at so far because my pump and gp didn't show up yet.

Replacing the connectors for gp's tonight , mine crumpled upon removal. Also replaced the tstat with a motor craft one, I cant leave things uncoated even if the parts stick out like a sore thumb, id rather them be coated when they go back in.

It’s going over the cap too lol

That tire/wheel combo is spot on for your truck. Nice!

Agree

Yeah I figured. Hopefully you're making some sort of floating mount so that as the cab and bed move around differently than each other, that the rack doesn't cause cracks or breakage.

Awesome looking truck!

@sjwelds you nailed it, I forgot these frames were built to flex a little, with that said I think im going to cut the rack into two, use my gutter mounts for the cab and then frame mount it via exocage up front, and ladders in the rear on both sides of the truck. Protection and serving as mounts for the rack over the cap. I had no intention on mounting it to the cap at all. I think thatll be a safe bet.

Thank you for bringing that up man!
