Re: 95 F150 - Project Marilyn
Got it. When you hd said it blends with the Line-X bed pretty well I was thinking it must be another product.VintageIronFab wrote:That's actual Linex- I have the parts Sandblasted to basically etch them and get the surface ready. I figure if they can spray wood with it then janky plastic will be fine lol!
They can spray that stuff over most anything!

My custom 3 point harnesses- no miles on them but the idea is keep you planted in the seat and still be able to run errands lol. It's gonna be an awesome idea or a terrible one - only time/miles will tell!

All the factory mounting points were retained along with how the factory belts secure to the body were used.

Re: 95 F150 - Project Marilyn
I bought them local at a place that sells every light known to man --they are like wayyyyy overpriced lol but I still sprung for them. I think they were like $16 each with the light and the little metal surround- mine are black but they are normally chrome. The little surround is pretty clever and mounts pretty easy. I guess hit me up and I can get you a set.

Re: 95 F150 - Project Marilyn
If you ever decide to change your type of injection, add an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, are pulling an engine and mangle a fuel line or maybe burn one up-- one easy and fairly cheap fix is to remove the lines around the fuel pump forward to the engine; cut them at the flex line/hardline area; slide on a tube nut then tube sleeve; then single 37* flare the 5/16" line (on my 95 F150 BOTH lines are this size) then finally add a male/male -5AN/-6AN fitting. After that you just connect to the engine in the configuration you need. Some would ask why not go all the way -6AN. Well it depends whether you need that much fuel volume, and it allows you to retain a factory stainless steel line, fuel filter and fuel pump connection at the tank.

Re: 95 F150 - Project Marilyn
So I need a vote of sorts- do I rock the classic 14" air cleaner or the air intake tube that a common on the later models??

Re: 95 F150 - Project Marilyn
I like the look of the classic center mounted air cleaner, but I read somewhere that the factory air boxes are hard to beat for sand/silt filtration, only thing better is an UMP setup. I think it was someone on here who told me that lol

Re: 95 F150 - Project Marilyn
Now that I've got a throttle body vs SEFI on the engine there's a fairly large hole to contend with. Here's my fix that was fast, easy and required no welding wire lol!

Some pics of the radius arm crossmember. This isn't a crawler so hopefully it doesn't get ripped the hell off! Basically 1 3/4" x .250 wall tubing was the material.

Re: 95 F150 - Project Marilyn
Few pics of my quick release fire extinguisher mount- gotta love that ozone friendly Halon 1211. Didn't want the gear clamp mechanism showing. The extra hole is for a padlock- if you're in downtown Phoenix or Ensenada I don't need it disappearing

Now that I’m finalky back in Phoenix and released from the dastardly clutches of the Midwest lol...Marilyn is finally getting an alignment! The local Firestone fellas probably haven’t seen a 4.5” over swingset steering truck.... maybe ever!

Re: 95 F150 - Project Marilyn
Well just an update- I’ve taken this truck to 2 places - first place the front end was too wide for the machine; the second place is just honestly being chumps and not willing to do the work. Reason #1892 to not go wider!
If I cat get the engine tuned and the trans controller to work right. It’s a super killer truck but it’s really (and I mean really) testing my resolve.
