1994 F150 4x4 project including adding a turbo

[n8in8or]

Will be neat to see, like you said not too many I-6 Fords people played with much. We had one for a while and I personally liked it, but yes it was an absolute dog.

Couple pics, sorry to pollute your thread.

That's a good looking color combo.

I drug home a Bronco chassis today. It has a 4” lift with extended radius arms and new shocks. I’ll be putting those bits under the truck for offroading fun this year along with some axles with 4.10 gears that I picked up last year. The frame is really clean so I’m going to save that for a builder to put my 1 ton axles under and make kind of a bobbed pickup.....but that is another thread for another day....

Got more done on this today than I thought I would. I got the lift kit completely removed and in a pile, the frame put on the frame pile and the axles off in their own corner - ready to be put on Craigslist. I don’t know how I did this stuff without a bucket tractor before....Turd Ferguson to the rescue again!!

That is a darn clean frame!

They usually include beer which leads to meetings on Tuesday nights that start with: "Hello, my name is . . ."

Yep! It will be a good future foundation. The guy I bought it from said the previous owner had done the cleanup and painting of the frame while working on the truck.

Good one! It’s a vicious cycle.

I'm ready to see this build take off haha. I actually watched some turbo 300's on the 'Tube after he started this thread.

The other projects are taking all of my money, so the good stuff probably won't be happening until this coming winter....

That 300 is one of Ford's better engines imo

Yes they were. I am not a fan of most anything with that oval emblem on it, but, I do like them 300s.

Impressive build you've got there. I would like to keep this as a reference.

Thank you. The best stuff is yet to come. I'm hoping to start tackling the engine in earnest this winter.

I sold the truck today. That's one project off the list!

YEA! Now you might have time for that skid steer sitting in the corner of your shed gathering dust!

Or maybe I've found the magic trick for getting my projects completed - sell 'em off!!
