Re: 1990 Ford150 4x4 "Bajamobile"

What spring combos are you guys running. Accutune set me up with a 250/350 combo, but it seems a little light.

Re: The Motley Crue: White '97 OBS Crew Cab Build

I think a coating on top would look good. Especially if you are going above the rail on the bed.

A few upgrades on the accessories side. My guy is taking his time but at least he does nice work.

My fab guy is finally motivated again.

Re: 1990 Ford150 4x4 "Bajamobile"

A little progress on the cab. All my parts are in. I’m upgrading quite a few things besides the shocks and chassis. SAG power steering pump, 3G alternator, hydro boost brakes, new steering rack. New A/C unit, custom dash with all new gauges, 60W Rugged radio, new 7” lowrance GPS unit are the main up...

Re: 72 f100 4x4

Now that Ken has started on my build, my giant engine cage will be up for grabs. I still think you should leave the truck as is though. It drives so nice around town town. You have plenty of space at your house. Buy a Ranger, Bronco or f150 and build that.

My guy is finally starting to tear into her. Updates should be a little more frequent from now on.

Re: 1990 Ford150 4x4 "Bajamobile"

Got my order in with Accutune. The coilovers and front bumps are getting rebuilt and carried over to the new setup. The bumps are also getting an inch taken out of the stroke. Up front we’re adding a four tube 3.0x14”bypass and the rear link killers are being replaced by a four tube 3.0x16” bypass. ...

Took a bit longer than expected but the truck just got dropped off today. Parts and materials are being ordered. Let’s get this thing going.

Re: 1990 Ford150 4x4 "Bajamobile"

I like the 64 kit that’s on the truck. I called Geoff and we talked a bit. He recommended his 3.0 setup front and rear. He also recommended drop brackets up front for more up travel at ride height. Problem with that is I’d have to redo my double swing steering. He also doesn’t like hydro bumps. He h...

Re: 1990 Ford150 4x4 "Bajamobile"

Anyone have experience with Solid Shocks. My truck is all Giant stuff and Geoff is making his own shocks now. SC150 (my trucks former owner) likes what he has to offer and suggested them.

Re: 1990 Ford150 4x4 "Bajamobile"

IBP less noise to listen while driving and less space taken up. it is a take off every time to tune thing is my understanding. Bypass with c/o set up probably easier to tune for speed and could get away with 2.5 2.5 pretty easy and see improvements. I like how our TTB stuff handles with just a 3.0 ...

Re: 1990 Ford150 4x4 "Bajamobile"

If you can fit a c/o bypass combo and can afford it, do that. IBP's are hard to tune, have smaller pistons and less oil capacity than a 2 shock combo. I originally wanted to do a dual shock setup up front. Out a KOH and the Metalcloak Stampeded the guys from the King truck kept steering me towards ...

Re: 1990 Ford150 4x4 "Bajamobile"

Might consider 3.5’s also. If one shock per corner will work is the IBP worth it? I already have 2” x 2” bumps up front. If you have gone through the build you kinda get how I’ve been using the truck. If I’m buying new shocks I’ll spend some extra coin to go bigger if it’s worth it.
