03 f150

[ldyzluvdis06]

i just picked up my new dd/tow rig for the trans am. i traded my 04 GTP with 163K miles on it, needed some work for this truck plus $2600 from them.

the truck is a 2003 F150, 177K miles, heritage edition, extended cab, 4wd, towing, all power, sunroof, power pedals, tool box. this is the only pic i have, im going to get it cleaned up this weekend and ill post more. the drivers side has no damage, just the passenger side.

im wanting to put a brush guard on the front, wheels/tires, and lift....any help or advice? this is my first truck (other then my bagged mazda) so im new to it all!!

nah, im not worried about the appearance, it's just going to be a "work" truck. purpose built.


andy; im not going to pick up a trailer, my buddy is and said i can use it anytime, plus i have another friend that is willing to let me use theirs also.

I love the deals you get man... I can't believe someone took a high mileage Grand Prix and then gave you $2600 on top of it for that truck.

neither can i...lol. the grand prix booked for $4600 in "good" condition....the truck books for $7400 in "fair" condition (the lowest possible)

by the way...the truck has the optional 5.4 instead of the 4.6 also!!!

 

[SleeperLS]

You would get that kind of deal. When we went to get your motor i was half expecting the kfc to give us a discount

seems like a pretty sweet deal with the cash on top!!

Very nice. Only concerns I've heard with the 2v 5.4's is they will spit plugs, but you have the last year they were made and I believe the heads were revised by then.

They last forever with oil changes, mine with 180k+ with a knock for about 5 years 60k miles. They not a speed racer but take he'll of a beating, what miles on it?

go ahead and come on down and do the swap in 1 hour for me then. lol.

and no lightning swap, truck is staying as is minus brush guard, body lift, wheels/tires. the more money i spend on truck mods, means the less money i spend on t/a mods.

Do a lightning spark plug swap

Fuck number 7 plug
