Fixin it up

[raftereric]

I have a 1996 F-250 extended cab w/ 8' box. She's rust'n out pretty bad, but the frame and the drive train is in good shape. I've had the truck 9 years as my construction truck and hate the thought of selling or parting out so I decided to fix her up. 7.3 diesel w/ 210,000 miles and rebuilt trans about 15000 miles ago. Bottom line questions ---- anybody have input on where I can get a custom tube style bumper for the front and maybe something different for the back as well. What about fenders, cab corners, whole box, or body parts in general. Another question on performance --- is this engine worth supin up a bit maybe with a better turbo -- I have to replace my turbo seals anyway so it will be apart here in the next 2 weeks.

Make your own bumpers, you'd be happier and you wouldn't see em on other trucks. Yes that motor is worth beefing up , id replace the seals on it while I could get to em
