1989 f150 *unknown* project

Im trying to decide what to do about the interior. My first concern is the seat. Precision fit seems to be the only outfit I can find that makes a cover, black leather runs $330 for this bench, but with part if the foam missing im not sure if thats the route I want to go, plus id like a fold down center console to hold my drink.

get seats out of a 97-2003 half ton ford. build brackets to adapt them.. thats what i did in my 01 superduty.. i love that era of seats from ford half tons.

Thats proboly the route I take. I'll have to see what I can find at a graveyard. I hate to buy something off of fleabay and they be to wide. Im picky about my seats, ive got wide shoulders and the seats that "gather you" hurt my back.

That was quick. Tank looks good, even came with new bolts and spacers so I can reuse the stock skid plates.

 

[lincolnlocker]

sweet. is that a bronco tank?

[little luke]

Nope. Its a f26e tank. 38 gallon tank to replace the stocker. Its 5 gallons larger then the bronco tank, but it wont hang as low as a bronco tank.

 

[lincolnlocker]

right on!

Having 3 projects at once sucks. I got started on the bed. 4" channel with a 3/16 wall. Total 12 3/4 grade 5 bolts holding it to the truck. Im having to relocate the e-brake bracket on the frame. Im going to mount a 12k winch under the bed and above the hitch. Im wanting to put some form of a small boom lift some where on the bed. When I cater I take up to 6 coolers weighing up to 350lb, and I can't throw them up like I use too. I thought about building in a goose neck hitch, but I don't own goose neck trailer so **** it. Also, im either going to lift the front a few inches, or im going to pull the blocks out of the rear.
