New aluminum radiator...140.00 (38 bucks shipping to get it here quick)
New Harley Davidson paintable headlight/grille surround...150.00
New bumper (getting cancelled as we speak hopefully, see below)
35x12.50x15 BF Goodrich A/T's (on another truck I bought a while back, so kinda free)

Soon to be ordered...

Dixon Bros. prerunner bumper...550.00

Fixed it for ya...

I am going to have to buy new wheels and tires now cause from what I am understanding 15's will not fit the truck...But I may look into converting the truck to the older, smaller brakes if I can so i can use the 1200.00 dollar new tires I have on my 1977 F150...

And when you get in an accident and really hurt (or worse yet kill) someone the insurance company and lawyers will have a field day with that one. Do it right Logan, sell the 15's and buy something else. Looks like it will be a good truck when done.

The older brakes aren't smaller after doing some reading...It just takes 2 inches of back spacing and caliper grinding to make them fit...If I could find someone with a set of 5x135 15 inch wheels I would see what they look like...Its going to cost about 200 more for 16" wheels and tires than for 15's...I won't sell the 15's, they will stay on my 77 F150...
