'01 F-150 supercrew (the screw)
Well, I finally did it. I traded off my impreza. The new ride is a 2001 F-150 supercrew xlt. 2wd, 4.6, 4r70w, 3.55 trac lok, all power everything except the seats. It even has power pedals.
It has a few problems. The right exhaust manifold is leaking out of the front cylinder. Its been wrecked and busted the right front wheel, so it has a steel wheel on it at the moment, also in the wreck the left front door and left mirror got smashed up and broke. Other than that its pretty damn good I think.
Plans for it, full tune up, oil change fuel filter, new serpentine belt. Im going to put a set of headers on it and have a new exhaust made, and find a cold air intake I like. Im on the hunt for a door, I can get a door skin at work for $350 so I may do that. The only problem with finding a used door is it has to be from a supercrew, they have an extra body line at the bottom extended cabs and regular cabs dont have. Also I plan on at least doing a 2'' rear drop to level the truck, but I am really considering a 4/6 drop. I have also been hunting craigslist everyday for a set of 20's or 22's I like.
I plan on doing some light towing so later in life some 3.73's or 4.10's will be in order. Also I am thinking about a valve body in the near future, it seems like the 2-3 shift happens really quick, like as soon and it shifts into 2nd not long after its shifting into 3rd. The rest of the gears seem to be evenly spaced in their shifting. Any thoughts on this? Would like a silverfoxx valve body fix this or a programmer?
Anyways on to the pics, dont have many right now. This is the night I brought it home.
The damaged door
Thats it for now. Ill keep you updated. I must say it feels good to be back in a ford.
