Re: support for longbeds

We all know that short beds are a few feet short of a real truck.

Re: support for longbeds

a favorite picture of our 67, ...I think I got hooked on long beds about 14 yrs ago, I had an 83 f150 longbox 4x4 extended cab, ... I lived about 10 miles west of where I worked. 5 miles of gravel. .... I could go about 80 and the truck felt very stable, if it had been a shortbox I think I probably would have rolled it.. not bragging, just remembering..... I do not drive like that anymore. ..... Marriage, Son and better time management helped all of that

p.s ..all very nice trucks posted, but the Ed Miller Drag Truck that special-K posted could almost give me goosebumps.

thanks for listening, .. life and goosebumps are good,kent

Thanks,
I think so to!
just ordered the new tunes for it.

I also painted the caliper's this past week.





I was thinking about doing the rear drums with the red paint but I think I'll leave them be for now.

After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: support for longbeds

Nothing like being able to haul building supplies like 2x4's and plywood sheets IN the bed, not hanging off the back. Long beds rule!

Running a little rich up there Joe?!?!? Great pics. Happened by your house in Roseville a few weeks back (saw your truck). Been looking for some real estate in the area and just driving around. NOW I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE!!!!!LOL!
That ol' truck chugs right along. I had the two boys in the back sitting on the couch with their bikes as I bombed down some dirt roads, even ran through some snow! I saw another longbed up there this last weekend, he loaded up four bikes in addition to all the other stuff he already had in there, he had just put a new 383 in it.

You moving to Roseville? There goes the neighborhood.

Re: support for longbeds

was really looking for a short bed, and never really liked the long bed look but when I came across the deal for this truck, well I couldn't pass it up... I can say, the long bed has grown on me and I like it.... 2"-4" and it will be even better...
