McF150 Build

I hope that whoever put this oil filter on that the other side of the pillow is always warm.

There were cuss words said and extra shit that I had to take off but now there's a shiny new Motorcraft filter installed. That and you can really see the bling of the fuel pump block off plate.

Heater hoses installed and coolant is filled up. Hate it have a work trip this week because we're getting close to lighting the fires and kicking the tires.

Anybody know what trans this is?

That sir, is an Np435.

Went ahead and pulled the seat to see what kind of cluster were working with and boy do I have some work ahead of me. Gonna order some pans, rockers and corners this week and see how much I'll have to make. If anyone has a donor bullnose sitting around I'm interested in a set of doors and maybe fenders.

There’s a handful of floor pans every ~300 yards on the side of the road by your house. Some may be yellow and black while others are red and in an octagonal shape but spray paint will take care of the rainbow floor created.

I see you too are a man of culture and resourcefulness.

Looks like a great place for some 2x6 tubing to me.

Proper way to load a shackle if anyone was curious

Gonna head out to the shop here shortly to tear into these a bit. Need to dig into my daily F150 though, on the way home from dropping the trailer off she decided the battery light just had to come on

For tons



For battery light, but at least you made it home!

2 hours and $280 later and the daily is charging again. Not a terrible job but no where near as easy as the old 4.6/5.4 motors.

Hopefully after this week of work travel I'll be back to working on the "Project" truck again.

Started the drivers side exhaust. As much as I hate this for flow, it's way easier for me to run it this way and will make it easier to mess with the driveshaft and tcase later down the road.
