Hello all..
I've been lurking for a bit.. found a link on www.fordf150.net
Then I also seen the logo on the back of Smokefan's truck when he posted his wheels up on LAC.. ( aka lowrunningcloud on LAC):))
So I thought, might as well spend some time and sift thru some pages and see whats here..
Seems to be a pretty friendly site!
well
I picked up a 2005 F150 XLT Supercrew w/ 42k on it in August.
it's 2-tone black /silver bottom and chrome bumpers..
I want to black it out.. and FX2 style it.. and FX2 bumpers, grille, headlights and of course paint the sides and some blacked out LED tails.. but thats in time.. :t-up:
I'll try and get some pics up soon.. Wife likes to take the camera and hide it..

Hi Viper!
Our trucks are almost twins.

I've since changed the tires (a bit larger than stock), added a few small things like tint, a bolt over grille and hood protector. I also changed out the 4x4 decals.

What size is your air tank

What size is your air tank
I went with a 1 gallon tank Matt. It's much easier to find mounting locations because of it's size. It's good for a full 4-5 second blast, but 4 or 5 seconds at those decibals is MORE than enough. The compressor kicks in once the pressure goes below 110 psi, and it takes about 28 seconds to refill to 145 psi, or about a minute and a half to refill the tank from empty. (150 psi rated compressor and tank but safety switch shuts compressor at 145 psi).
