Me and my brother pulling everything back straight...The wreck didn't put holes in the radiator or condenser...They were bent bad but not leaking...Thank god Ford designed the fan to set 7 inches from the radiator...I was driving it around the neighborhood after jumping on the hood and flattening it...

This is the wheel and tire combo that I will be using...

16x10 Pro Comp Black Steel Streetlocks...
Pro Comp TYPE 152 STREETLOCK BLACK Wheels from National Tire & Wheel @ NTW

315-75-16 General Grabber AT2's...
GENERAL Grabber AT2 LT315 75R16 121Q D8 @ TiresDirect.Net

The wheels and tires are going to run me about 1250.00 after shipping, mounting and balancing, I would of gotten the tire from the same place as the wheel but I'm not paying around 30 dollars more a tire when a tire shop will only charge me 10 dollars a piece to mount and balance them...

I used to have this same truck but it was teal colored and at about 225K the engine decided to crap out due to the guy before me putting alumnaseal in the coolant to seal up a blown HG :argh: so i replaced it with a police intercepter 4.6L engine and boy would that puppy roll for an f150! i used to love the crap outta that truck!!

We've had this truck since 50K miles...Traded even with a 2002 2wd 4.6 automatic truck for this one...We got lucky...
