Looking good! I see the F250 badges but it doesn't look like one much anymore.
Much lower and cooler. Well done!. TR

Thanks Guys, They Are 225/75 R16's. It's Amazing How Much Safer It Feels To Drive It Now...

The first time I drove my pops 66 with matching new tires I was shocked ! I don't think it had a matching set since it was new ;)

Your Right Lance The New Tires Help For Sure, But My Tie-Rod Ends & King-Pins Were Shot As Well As The Axle Being Twisted, My Buddy Used A Press To Straighten It. The Front End Is Aligned Now And The Steering Box Was Adjusted & Everything Is Nice And Tight. It's Smoooth As Ex-Lax Now. Amazing What A Few Ball-Bearings & Some Grease Will Do. LOL...

Thanks. Reverse-Eye Mono's Front & Rear With Some New Shocks. Also a Set Of The Button-Style Bump Stops. The 8-Lug 16" Wheels Seem To Sit Deeper In The Wells Than 15's Do On An F100 With The Same Set-Up..

What company did you choose for the Monos? Is there any steering changes or bump steer?
I agree it looks just right not to low.

This is where I got mine, I think at one time Shadow had posted this is where he was getting his also, I called them and worked out a deal on mine. front & rear reversed eye monos with hardware and shocks for $1000.00 lot price this was a couple of years ago , but I would ask :2cents:

Shadow may have a better supplyer ?

The Steering Is Real Good Now. If Your Steering Box, Kin-Pins & Tie-Rod Ends Are In Good Shape Your Front End Should Align Real Well With Just Some Caster Shims. I Don't Know Where The Springs Came From As Far As The Manufacturer...
