Ohio newbie here...

[darthdjinn]

Howdy to you all out there.
I'm Chris and I live in Middletown, Ohio.
I recently got a 77 F150 w/ 351m n C6.
All stock except four inch lift thats ten years old.
I plan to replace the old 4' with a new one and new sneakers all around,
The sneakers I got now are rusted and almost slicks but I cant afford to get the 15x8's I want and the
goodrick Mtr's I got my eye on.

If anyone in the area knows of good mudholes open to outsiders I'm lookn as I am new to the area. I'd like to try out this truck and put it through the paces to see what it's got. Also, If anyone has connections to gettin
performance 351m intake and carb. I'm lookn to.
The truck has ALOT of rust but I got an LMCtrucks catalog so I got the parts ordered for a new bed.
Hope to see you guys out in the mud.

Welcome to Ford "F" Zone!!! Sounds like you have a great truck in that 77, post some pics if you can. For performance parts, I look at Summit Racing or JEG's, although you'll be limited with the 351M/400M. LMC Trucks, Jeff's Bronco Graveyard, Natl. Parts Depot and Auto Krafters have a ton of replacement OEM parts to keep you looking good. I can't recall the name at the moment, but I believe there is a big-time offroad association out of Ohio. Try checking the Top 4x4 Sites link, and vote for our site while you're there, JSM84

JSm84 Thanks. I've vbeen out of the loop with wrenchin since the first Bush Administration. BUT I got me three trucks now, all of which I am working on now. My 77 F150, an 84 B2 and an 88 B2 with a 302 conversion on 33's.
I want to get new rims and rubber first thing, winter is coming quick and I need dependable rubber for off roading and rescue'n people stuck in the ditches on the road. I cant wait to get my truck bed and get it put together, mine has no floor left to it except the sides. I got sheet metal for the floor right now.
BUT I NEED THE RUBBER TO GO MUDDIN BEFORE IT ALL FREEZES.
