Well I bought my 2004 F-250 about 6 months ago give or take. I was sick of the stock look, and sick of getting stuck in a little patch of sand, so I figured this might help out a little. Even though my truck still weighs 6,500lbs.


I put an 8" FabTech suspension lift on it. With 20" Diamo rims, wrapped with 37" Toyo Open Country A/T tires, which are amazing tires that I highly recommend.

truck looks great, not a fan of the rims but if you like them then thats all that matters, i agree with you on Toyo's tires i have a friend that has them on his truck, they dont do well in the mud but they are good for sand and road

 

^That would be me.

I love the tires except they dont do the greatest in mud. i can go thru mostly all sand in 2wd but the second i hit mud, the heavy deisel just sinks the front end and it turns into a sled. Granted ive only got stuck once but i havent been in deep deep ish becuz i dont wanna ruin the truck, i didnt buy it for go mudding, i would buy a beater for that matter. I also like the fact they dont humm real bad, if at all.

BTW, like the truck and lift, except for the rims but thats my "o2". Its your truck and what you like, and thats all that matters

 

nice truck..

 

nice..gonna have to upgrade those gears or you gonna lose a lot of mpg

 

do you still have the stock front coil springs?

if so wanna donate them to lift my jeep higher fund?

 

You guys are the first to not like the rims, but ehh, I guess picture's don't really do the truck justice. I love it. Anyway, I never had front coil springs on my truck. The 04's and older have leaf springs in the front. Sorry man.

 

I am running the toyo O/C mud terrian tires and love them. Toyo is the way to go. And i like the rims.

 

like i said tho, its just my o2. there not bad but there just not my style. thats all. If you like them, thats all that matters.

Do you have any plans for your truck.

theres not much of mpg loss as does the gas engine but if you do a lot of towing then you will need gears.

keep us updated with any new stuff

 

Yes actually I do have a few plans. I'm researching Programmers right now. I would love to throw on a chip, not for performance but for economy to save a little especially due to the high fuel prices. On a Ford forum I made a thread about it. A lot of people have told me to not chip the 6.0PSD because it will eventually mess it up. There are 3 stages to a chip as you know. Performance, Economy, and towing. I would use mine for Economy, I just can't imagine how that would mess up the engine [Headgasket, etc.]


Another thing that caught my eyes, was the fender flares. They look awesome. I'm looking into those now. After these A/T's burn up, I'm going to get a little more meaty of a tire. 4 inch turbo back exhaust forsure. There are a couple other things I would like to do. But for now that's the first on the list.
