I gots a F150 XLT Longbed with teh 5.8L 351 and a foot made of lead. They call me the Street King. I've elevated my game past the streets... I want to join the next upcoming SCCA tournament now, but I don't think old Chevy (my tuck's name) is prime enough to hang with the big dawgs. I need some suspension upgrades... fosho.

What does EVERYONE suggest? I was thinking Greddy GREX tripe tupe strut towers bars and TIEN coil overs with sum R Compound slicks. :boink:

I suggest a lift kit and skinnier tires.



Let me know if you die so I can throw a party.

make the wheels stick out about six more inches, and be sure to get, like, 10 inch tires with a thousand spokes. also, make sure to make it look as retarded as possible. oh and get a mexican flag on your back window. dude that would be tight!

o..you are lowering it then?...shame.
if you were lifting it....dont get skyjacker lift's. they are way overpriced.

Holy power to weight ratio Batman! The Wheelie bars on that thing don't stick out nearly far enough... I would be afraid of flipping it with those monster Hoosier wrinkle walls.

Doesn't look shopped. I've seen trucks that sit down like that in competitions. They cut out a LOT of metal to do that. A low impact collision is not a good thing to experience with those trucks.

I am not quite sure why, but that thing needs Lil' Red Express style stacks, just scaled down to size.

Hey, that was my Dad's 1st car! :eek:
Morris Minor Traveller I think it was.
He said it was a great car with it’s only vice being the tendency for one of the front wheels to fall off when cornering. :lol:

Engine raised 3 inches, chopped off rain tray to fit said engine, hacked wheel wells to accommodate the tires. Also there's no rear suspension. No shocks, no springs. The body just sits on the rear beam.
