My whip

My new to me 2000 F250 4x4. i got the truck backin march and have been doing routine maitnence on it since. I picked it up with 152k on it i have since just rolled 164k. i drive the bal*s off of it. I installed 4" rear blocks to give me the f350 rake. i also tinted the rear slider and sides to 15%. I put brand new Firestone rubber on her and Got my hands on some ISSPRO pillar gauges. I just finished installing a fisher plow also. A ts 6 position chip is sitting at home awaiting a reburn.

My plans include:
-drain tranny and refill before plowing
-drain both diffs and tcase and fill with royal purple
-i have slotted and drilled rotors on the way along with new calipers and pads to install
-i already did new tie rods, drag link, etc, only thing left are sway bar bushings/links
-TSchip reburned by eithe tw or ts
-next summer have a upgraded torque converter put in, and a shift kit done

sorry for the crappy pics only camera around. let me know what you guys think. by the way im 18yrs okd so it gets expensive quick on my budget. This entire truck has been payed for by me!







and this last picture i thought was kind of funny so i threw it in there. its off my old 99 ranger. i used to do the one wheel peel so often i snapped a tooth on the ring haha

Thanks alot woodduck. i do landscaping and currently have 30 accounts. my partner is handling them now because i am up at wentworth institue of technology on boston. i have both the hypertech and the ts. i cannot get the hypertech to run properly. all it will do is tune my transmission and i dont care for the shifting it is giving me. The ts was custom burned for a buddies truck with injectors and blah blah. It was a real rough tune no street manners. plus it isnt for my pcm. so i havent decided if i wanna just pay $50 to ts and let them put the usual 6settings on it. or do i pony up some cash for TW tunes?
