We are still finishing up some details on a few products but we are getting close to being finished!

This build is going to be awesome! Can't wait to reveal the rest and a list of what will be done to this truck.

A full build thread will ensue!

You know that feeling when UPS has been dropping off lots of packages but you aren't quite ready to do anything with them yet??

Gears, steps, handles, tires!

A lot has happened in the last week. My rendering is completed and ready for displaying. We had to update the wheels and change a couple things.

We have a great group of sponsors on board with this build! I'll update over the next few days on some great companies!

American Eagle wheels is milling us a set of wheels for this project. Did you know there wheels are 100% American made? That's awesome!!

Fresh off the mill and shipping bare to us!

you should do a bumper from Trick Truck, it would look way better than the one in the rendering

Nice build, I know the rims are American made, but hopefully you have better luck. I've had three rims crack from them.

Most wheel companies purchase the wheel "blanks" from the same blank manufactures... not like they are forging aluminum

The odds to get 3.....

We will painting all the flat black trim on the truck the same Tuxedo black as the truck. Door handles, mirrors, and wiper cowl.

Instead of sanding down the factory door handles and tailgate handle, it's much easier to buy the flat primered versions and paint them. I also buy two left rear doors for the drivers side to eliminate the key hole. I'll post a look at the flat primered handles as well as the part numbers.

I buy all my own Ford stuff from Sunrise Ford. One of the best prices you can find! You can buy all the handles including the tailgate handle in paint to match for around $320

Gen-Y hitch is involved with this build and if you haven't seen there drop hitches you need to check them out! Absolutely flawless stout and beefy hitch that is rated for 21,000 lbs. That is more than double most other drop hitches on the market.

We are happy to partner twitch these guys. Their hitches are the real deal! Oh yea, the completed hitch ways 68 lbs!

Can you imagine putting that hitch in and lining up the holes for the hitch sleeve? Lol

Slides right in, can do it single handed. It's not much heavier than other drop hitches.. the one benefit is you can actually get a 2.5" shank.

Your lifting 100 lb wheel and tires up on to 8 little studs.. I'd rather do this.
