Nice truck.  Extended arms are a plus=more flex=more money.  You can probably find a decent used lift with arms on CL for cheap but if you ever plan on doing a sas I would save your money and do that.Its not really that expensive and almost bolt in with little fab involved.

i dont know if i wanna spend the money to sas but that would be nice i have a friend that had a 93 with stock arms and his truck had no flex

FORDTOUGH

Well the 77,78,79 stock arms are almost a foot longer than the ttb arms and for me I got a  killer deal on a donar truck with a low mile 4" lift so I parted and scraped the donar and made out like a bandit. I wouldnt do it any other way, but its your call just keep your eyes peeled and you will find some deals to make it affordable.

ive never been a fan of fender flairs but i got a set real cheap and the rust on my rear quarters annoys me so im going to clean the rear fenders up and seal them up good and slap the extenda flairs on after i buy my lift, i just graduated from high school and got a job working 50 hours a week so was thinking about getting a nice bds lift before t day since i will actually be making money . i plan on painting the flairs as they are poo brown now but for 50 bucks i couldnt say no im planning on painting them with the duplicolor bed coating in a spray can

havent done anything with the flairs yet but me and my buddys went in on a 93f150 flairside with a 6 or 4 inch lift and 35's for 200 bucks and im taking the lift for my truck .the front axel and 351 are spoken for but everything else is up for grabs if anyone wants some cheap parts

ok new idea i have about 1 thousand dollars to do what ever i want with and ive been working about 50 hours a week lately and i have my bike to ride when its niceout i was thinking about getting a dana 44 leaf sprung axle and maybe some f250 lift springs i wanna run about a 35 inch tire and i drive this daily i know that id have to weld leaf spring mounts thats not a problem but im curious about hooking up steering with a solid axle how hard that conversion is also gearing ?
