Doin a fullsize (Project F1 FIDY)...

Hey guys, I have been out of here for a little while. Been very...very busy lately. I got a rendering of my 04 F1FIDY by Nick over at Surface DVD while I was in Afghanistan and now it is starting to come together now that I am back home. Plans are a simple bag job, paint job and interior needs to be reupholstered. Trying to work 5 days a week and do things with the family makes it hard to touch the truck but it will get there. On to the pics...

Rendering


Started a center console to house two JL 10W0


Shaved the F150 off the tailgate


C notches







Got the tank and valves mounted

More to come later, the truck is in the garage ripped apart. I got the leaf springs off and the 4 link and panhard bar are about to go on. I've run all the airlines for the rear and all the wiring. I am setting the rearend up to lay out on a 36" tall tire and the front will only be able to lay out of a 24 3/4" tire without a ton of work. I am trying to keep it simple for a daily. Right now plans on wheels are 24s in the rear and 22s in the front. My components consist of this list

4 Slam Specialties RE8s
2 Viair 444s
4 - 1/2" SMC Valves
4 - 1/4" SMC Valves
1/2" DOT airline - until I can hardline it all
4 Rocker switches
4 1/2" SMC Check valves
2 SMC water traps
Parrallel 4 Link with a panhard bar
2 AVS dual needle 200 psi gauges
1 AVS single needle 200 psi gauge
5 gal. 9 port with drain aluminum tank from AVS

if you blan on dbing it i wouldn't go to crazy with the center console build just yet

COOL COOL MAN

nice start on the truck and danm thats a big notch whats the hieght inner on that one

Lookin good Ryan!!

Thanks guys, it's a 10" notch, the way the frame was built is crazy as hell and I wanted to lay on a meaty tire so I went with a big notch. Probably bigger than it needs to be but oh well. haha

dang with that notch you could lay out on semi truck wheels

yeah, it's big. like i said though, the frame on these trucks are insane and i wanted to lay on a big tire in the rear. i plan on going with 24" wheel in the rear and i also want a meaty tire, probably could have still done that with an 8" notch but wasn't sure. it's all good though, it will still work just fine.

Looking good man, let us know if you need anything!
