blanco bauer f150

[FlyByRacing]

Picked up a new project, 96 f150 Eddie bauer 5.0 4x4. Goal is to keep it stock width with a full usable bed. Will be cut and turns up front and I've been working on a full bolt on 3 link with cantilever kit. So far I've just been fixing thing and tuning it up. Did a leveling kit and extended the stock radius arms. Picked up some Alcoa's. Just need to find some 35s.

Looks like a nice clean truck to start with!

Truck was 100% stock. Even has the factory tape deck and 6 disk cd changer. Just needs alittle body work to be pretty on the outside again

Finally found some 35s and got them mounted. Hopefully this weekend pick up some plate and tube to start getting parts built.

haven't messed with the truck much. Finally getting back on designing parts so I can get them on the plasma table and cut out. Hopefully start buying parts soon so I can get on building everything

Finally got started building and collecting parts. Goal is to be done by the 1000. Gana be tight but doable

Got the drives side link mount and shocks mount done. Also started the cut and turn on some beams. On to the passenger side rear now.

Started on the front end. Simple cut and turn for now with coilovers and bypasses. 17.5 metal but Strapped at 15.5

Got the front together and took the truck out to Barstow for the Cali 300. Springs I had layin around are to soft so Ordered new ones. 17" metal to metal Strapped at 16. Hopefully start assembling the rear end soon

 

[FlyByRacing]

Started on the rear this weekend. Got the 3 link tacked in and started cycling everything. Still a lot of work and not alot of time to get it done

 

[FlyByRacing]

Little more done after work. Got the shock mount mocked up and cycling. 21.5" metal to metal. Will be Strapped closer to 19.5

It's finally driving. Pretty stoked on how it's turning out.

Took the truck for a shake down this weekend. Need to do some shock valving but worked pretty good outa the box

Sleeper and badass!

 

[FlyByRacing]

Whipped up a simple bummer and got most of the bed cage in. None of its done but good enough to go to Mexico

 

[FlyByRacing]

Still room for 2 dirt bikes

 

[FlyByRacing]

5 days in Mexico then 4 days in cal city for 130 miles in the dirt. Truck did awesome and nothing broke. Needs a little more spring and valving but works pretty good.
