1992 F-150 Custom
During the holiday break I went down to Chula Vista and bought a 1992 F-150 Custom Single Cab, Short Bed, 4x4 with a 5.8 v8. The plans are to do some stock width cut and turned beams with 14" c/o and bumps in the front and under the bed shock tower with some 12" shocks in the rear.

I got some Walker Evans 501 Legends wrapped in 33" KO2s. 2" leveling spring up front to make it not rub for now. Went to Glamis and it did great.

Thank you. I want to build as stockish looking as possible since it is my new daily driver for now.

Also did a sweet side exit exhaust before the rear passenger tire. No muffler also. It's not as loud as I thought it would be without a muffler.

That's what I did. The 2 cats keep it pretty quiet. Opened the cat exit to 3" and definitely unchoked it. I'm not one to bullshit, it was actually pretty noticeable.

Re: 1992 F-150 Custom
I had that same set up for about 10 hours and had to ditch it. Just tooooo loud for me. It sounds like a sweet plan youve got lined up for the rest of it, I too like the standard cabs

Edit: I only had the 1 high flow Bassani cat maybe that made the sound difference...

Re: 1992 F-150 Custom
The f150 I just bought has the exhaust chopped off right where the muffler should be, so a couple of feet of pipe outside the stock cats. It's not loud at all, surprisingly. I have a Black Widow to put on it anyway. I like your side exit though, I might be doing mine that way as well.
Sweet wheel and tire combo. I like the way it sits on 33's. This truck should be a lot of fun.

Re: 1992 F-150 Custom
Yeah i have the two stock cats and no muffler and it sounds clean, not loud. I love the wheel tire combo so thank you
It will be a lot more fun once i have the suspension done on it. Hopefully i don't go too crazy on it like my bronco haha

Re: 1992 F-150 Custom
I have the KO2's on my van, and love them. Great choice.
I first thought I would put 35's on my truck, but I really want to keep things simple. The 33's fill the stock wheel openings nicely without the headaches that bigger tires bring. Finally, a positive role model on this board!

Got 2.5 14" Coilovers and some 2.0x2" bump stops for the front of my truck. Went with 350 over 450 springs.

Picked up 3 Vision X HID lights for the front bumper.
Swooped up this UMP filter that is supposed to mount up in the stock location. Pretty excited to start putting everything on.
