[NEWFIE F-150]

yeah I like them....think I'll get them in a bit.....gotta straighten up a few things first....xmas day I gotta send the truck off for a bunch of work

 

[DNFXDLI]

There is a place open on Christmas Day?

 

[NEWFIE F-150]

it's our buddy that's gonna do it, just gotta leave her at his place....I get home for a bit fro my school/work town right on xmas day, so that's my first chance....pick her up a few weeks later and she'll be ready for the road at least....course I still won't be able to drive her cause the salt will probably still be down...

Umm, hi
Well, this sure took off, had 4 pages to read, lol!

 

[NEWFIE F-150]

hi roy......sure did huh lol

 

[DNFXDLI]

I see...sounds good.

 

[Beach66Bum]

flicked through part 1, subbed to the others....have a better look at it all over time .....nice truck, that's for sure

on another note.....here's the lights I'm tempted to get

Hi Zach,
check out a few of those companies ( there's at least four) that make those head lights. Some are better rated in the reviews. Also, have you thought about those lights with the DRL led's?
A guy over here has them in his truck and they look pretty neat.

 

[NEWFIE F-150]

mechanic gave her back with new manifolds but 2 studs not replaced (here's why I don't like other people doing work on my truck, this buddy is a huge exception though)...he'll see to that, so I stop smelling fumes in the cab.....he'll install those calipers and my new startmotor.....and fix the rad support....replace if he finds a good one. top notch work and a god price, most pros offer neither

these are matrix. can't say as I've heard of what you refer to, I ran a search but didn't seem of much use

 

[Beach66Bum]

When you're on E-Bay, you will see the lights with or without the led option. Seems the biggest complaint is that some of the led's burn out quick. Also, you need to do your own wiring to power the led's, it's not a full plug&splay upgrade.

 

[NEWFIE F-150]

yeah thanks for the info but to be honest I'd rather avoid leds....and e-bay hahah. I'm prett much settled on these anyhow...like em a lot

 

[Beach66Bum]

Ya, E-bay can work for you or against you. I've only bought two things of E-Bay. Bought a lot of stuff from Stylin Trucks when I had my sport truck.

 

[NEWFIE F-150]

I don't like e-bay. irks me. never bought a thing from them

 

[Beach66Bum]

I've also bought parts from Rock Auto, LMC ( I know I know, lol)

 

[NEWFIE F-150]

I like amazon for certain stuff, summit racing for a lot of others

 

[Beach66Bum]

Been checking Summit out, had their catalog mailed to me

Correction, meant American Trucks.

 

[NEWFIE F-150]

I bought my shocks and brake pads off them....good to deal with

 

[Beach66Bum]

Omg, total brain fart ( blame cold)
Totally forgot, I bought my Ford Racing valve covers and spark plug wires from Summit.

 

[NEWFIE F-150]

ah nice....valve covers huh

 

[Beach66Bum]

Yup. Already forgot about Old Orange!
Check my pic's, engine looked nice with them.
Also got matching valve cover bolts. So Ya, did shopping with them too.
( meant American Trucks in my other post)
