Thread: 01 F-150 Green Monster prerunner build

Well heres what i got i have a 2001 f150 5.4l sitting on 35s i have the DBR 4x4 long travel kit in the front with fox coilovers and nothing done to the rear yet probably just goin to do a leaf set up with stock gears lol 3.55s jus dont cut it thinking bout runnin 4:10s but not sure yet
heres a few pics of when i got it and thought out its yrs

back in the day


4in lift on 33s


install of road armor bumper no instructions wtf

had to cut off part of the frame instructions wouldve helped

installed

and the fenders



picked up some 35s after i installed my fenders

and fenders got paint too

lol silly little suspension

shock hoop bar

front suspension removed


painted

sexy


and completely installed

no action pics yet still need air bumps

remove that bumper and it would be pretty clean

x2 on that bumper! ^^^

x3 on the redneck bumper other than that looks bitchen man i sure miss my f1

I think the bumper looks kinda cool, in a big bulky smash your honda kinda way.

Dude! I'm a pretty sure you would have noticed, but you seam to have a large black growth on the front of your truck where a nice clean set of frame horns connected with light/strong ROUND tubing.

On a lighter note you have a pretty sweet start to a nice truck.

Nice start, DBR kit is bitchin for sure. Im not a fan of the bumper, but to each there own. Word of advice, be sure to clock the Resi hose fitting either front or back cause when that upper arm cycles up its gona break the hose fitting and get shock oil EVERYWHERE!

well i ended up getting new front fenders i had the 4" fiberwerx fenders which are still for sale
and i got the new 6'' tt fenders from fiberwerx

DITCH THE BUMPER! lol

got my fenders painted an installed but im still keeping my ugly bumper

Looks good, that bumper is scary.

That bumper is awesome. Something wrong with you socal kids.

Truck looks sweet. I think the wide fenders actually help that bumper too

wow,i actually like it! its unique and looks really aggresive

Wow new fenders look 10x better!!!

You're from texas, that explains it all. haha


sweet build

clean truck.. I think it would look better with a tube bumper and skid but you like the road armor bumper which is all that matters. Secondly, idk if you have blocks in the rear or what but it looks high compared to the front. It would look clean if the rear was dropped down a couple inches, cut and pulled bedsides would clean it up alot.. nice start.

The new fenders make that front bumper look proportional/ like it belongs i say rear suspention and glass and call it a day

yeah i have 2 inch blocks in the rear from the lift i installed a long time ago an just left them on

rear suspension an glass is next on the list for sure

That's how I feel about it too! Looks way better with the new fenders.

I guess ill be the asshole, im not really digging the front fenders. Maybe it just me, maybe I have to see it in person, but I personally like the old ones better. The cut on the fenderwell just doesn't look nearly as big as the other ones and it shows too much fender. To each there own. Other then that the truck is looking good. Get rid of those rear blocks and get some deavers. It should sit nice then.

bored the other day so i decided to repaint my grill an add some a unique extra to it

I think the smaller fenders looked better, but the bumper looks good from the front. And it matches up with the fenders really well. Good looking...for a ford

I like the old fenders as well those don't look like they line up to well and they are kind of tall. But the bumper looks pretty badass but all in all the truck looks awesome.

finally got some action shots


rough landing ahead i need some counter weight in the rear like a dual tire carrier or something



i moved like 4 ft an just sank wtf

Maybe your front bumper is to heavy.

Dont let off the gas in the air or you lawn dart.

DDamn that muck looks sticky. How did u end up getting out?

Landing knee deep in the throttle Is a quick way to kill a tranny

Not a good suggestion, you need valving and yes a little weight in the rear. I would not keep on the gas in the air, that will cause more problems then u want or need

my buddy was with me an winched me out i wasnt expecting it to just sink all of a suden good thing he was out with me lol

That doesnt look fun! haha and holy lawn dart. Trucks looking good though i like it!

I like the way the truck looks honestly, its nice to see something different then an typical tubed bumper. the jury is still out on the fenders though ha. I think if you had some sort of different hood it might make things look a little better but that my 2 cents. awesome truck bud!

truck looks good bro i got a 97 f150 basically same looking truck how much did that front suspension cost you?

The DBR 4x4 LT kit goes for $3500 without shocks.

The guy i bought my f150 from lives just around the corner from where your first pics are taken. Seen bunch of wild horses running around out there..lol

I like your green machine .

When I looked in to gettig LT 4x4 I was torn b/w an f150, ranger, or ST. I now have the ST with the DBR but he doesn't have axles any more. How hard was it to get the kit and axles?

i dont care what anyone says, that bumper is pretty damn baller and very different. and no im not from Texas im a socal kid but i like the diversity. but i think the fenders look pretty high up, so mabey a glass hood with a scoop or ect might distribute it out. eitherway once u get the rear up to speed this trucks going to look real clean and im sure be alot more fun so it doesnt feel like ur breaking your back on the landings haha.

O and dont ever floor it when your in the air, thats really gunna fuck ur shit up. worst advice ive ever scene right there haha

thanks guys my money flow has been very low so who knows when ill get the rear done
