1966 F100 Build-PROJECT DISRUPTIVE

The front tires came in today and I got them mounted up.  This beats the old hard front tires on Jag wheels...I may have to put some 1" spacers between the spring bottom to lower it just a tad. Probably going to wait and see if these springs settle. I really am starting to like this logo. I may have to do a post on how to do this...

Got the Cooper GT tires in today. Opted for the 275/60-15's  on the rear.  Running two different bolt patterns front to rear may be a challenge since they do not make a 5x4.75/5x139.7 dull drilled wheel. The only options are 1) no spare and call AAA, run two spares-no cool, or use a 5x139.7 wheel with an adapter for the front. Or get a custom wheel drilled... Color combo looks good. Derek at Vice Grip Garage on Youtube send me his logo. I just printed it out for size and it looks pretty neat. Probably doing some painting here soon . Derrick buys junk in the woods and gets them running, He is very entertaining and a lot smarter than he lets on. Check out his channel below Check out Vice Grip Garage below.  

Nothing worse than to have a nice truck only to rattle like a can of marbles going down the road. I recently got the tailgate painted and coated with Raptor Liner. After watching a video on Youtube I decided this was the route to go.  It actually it was hard nailing down the part number for some reason.  So I am posting this so you can see which part number to get. The pivot tailgate bushing looks like the original but it has a poly disc instead of the factory steel one. One note with this conversion or option,  if you plan on hauling heavy loads ot is not suggested since there is a possibility of this cracking.  The part number is 4.9102G .
