I rather have a older truck than these new tin. Cans. The older trust could be built a lot better than what these new trucks are. I love this truck My brother and I used to have a 73 Ford F250 highboy. And it was a Beast with a 10 foot Fisher plow on the front of it. And we very rarely had to use 4 wheel drive to Push Any Type of Snow. It was just a Beast good luck with this. Have fun with it. Enjoy it and don't let your kids drive it
For that steering wheel ring/scrape I wonder if you took it apart and put down some high temp silicone on the inside, out of the way, like a harmonic dampener !!! Think about it, the adapter is bell shaped.
@@robertphillips4616what do you call skinny? Back in the 70's if any tire was sticking 1/2 inch or more put from the body then police could write us a ticket.
@@robertphillips4616 and does that include the gay wheels with a diameter of more than 16.5" too? My 78f250 came stock with 261/2" wheels. It has 16's on it when i got it. I'm not into the 17-20+" wheels.
@@BillyLintzenich-wf7sk Since I was in high school (89-93) and before that, wider is always better to me. As I have got older, the more I dislike the vintage skinny tires on tall trucks. I'm a little bit ok with it on the 67-72 4x4 trucks, but not if they are lifted at all. The 73+ trucks look better wide.
I'm a 90s kid too, and I would never put flares on. I know in some states the tires can't stick out more than an inch. I would never live in those places.😂
Beautiful truck.But that whole front axle setup is a catastrophe. It's going to be Super Death wobble at anything over 50mph. And off-road 😂. Going to fold under at the first double.
@@FordEra ok ever might be a little harsh but let’s suck them puppies in a couple inches. Somewhere in the 37x12.5r18 range would give this truck a much better stance. It looks like it’s set up for tractor pull events.
My oldest chose an Alaskan cruise for his graduation gift/party. We went on that adventure in Augusta of 2022. What an amazing time we had.
Those door panels are friggin’ perfect!
When I look past the ridiculous wheels, it’s a beautiful truck!
SOUNDS LIKE YOUR BY THE BAY WITH SEAGULLS
That is a sweet truck, but I love my 77 high-boy with round lights
LOVE IT,but not too crazy about the wheels sticking out that far.
Its wider than my dually.😂😂
super duty axles have a lot wider stance than normal 70s axles plus he's got the wide wheels too so you'll have that
@@Camaron9769 Plus spacers.
My new favorite

Looks absolutely amazing! Excellent work ❤️
I don't even care the wheels stick out so far least their now 20s , absolutely beautiful truck
Beautiful truck!
I like the round headlights . But I'm a Chevy guy . Nice ride
😁😂I forgot how loud swappers are.
Super nice crew cab.
What a beautiful truck
That truck is amazing
That thing is beautiful, love the stance!
That's a really nice truck to each their own but it would look so nice with the 74 grille
I agree 👍
Might switch to the 74 grille someday. This one is kind of sentimental though.
Very nice truck🤩🔥
I love the truck and I love your videos keep going
Love it it looks amazing with the 79 grill
Sweet truck nice restomod Hey Solomon do you still own snickers if so when we going to see it again
I am the authority 79 is KING of its ERA😉
sema worthy tint job
Not sure if that's good or bad.😂

I will try that.
Solomon have you picked the colors for the Raptor yet.🤔🙋👍
Ford Era keychain on all my trucks too
That's a good looking truck
Looked it but seats were thinner in back from the factory so you had leg room. No leg room now but it looks awesome either way.
Beautiful truck... The super wide wheels though not my thing. That will destroy a nice paint job but hey that is your baby... Nice job Mr. Shift!!
The skinny tires look absolutely ridiculous to me.

@@BillyLintzenich-wf7sk Anything not wide enough to stick out at minimum 1" is skinny.

I'm from the 90s and Bushwacker fender flares would be required to make that road legal lol. Remember those days?
I'm a 90s kid too, and I would never put flares on. I know in some states the tires can't stick out more than an inch. I would never live in those places.😂
@robertphillips4616 they don't enforce it anymore, see them all the time, kicking up rocks on windshields and generally being annoying. Lol
@adamforbes9259 That would be annoying. The swampers don't really throw rocks. Any type of all terrain tire sure does though.
👌🏽
I want bed protection for short bed
Excelente trabajo me encanta los felicito tremenda camioneta son guerreras
Goals
🔥🔥🔥🔥
saludos desde VENEZUELA soy un amante de ese modelo de camioneta
It definitely looks SEMA worthy……
Damn birds
Steering wheel squeak? Sounds like you dubed over a bird sanctuary sound track
Didn’t realize how loud the birds were until it was editing time
Take if from a pro, chrome plate the glovebox door, make you love a dentside, that much more.
I hope to have a truck like that one day before I die used to be able to buy them for 500 bucks all day long Now you can’t find them nowhere
What mufflers are on that rig
Borla Proxs
Not a fan of tires that stick out way beyond the body, but otherwise I like this setup.
Very nice truck but those wheels sticking out absolutely ruins it for me!
Why is that? It’s easy to change
@@FordEra just a personal preference but still a nice build
My rule of thumb is truck needs to be an inch wider for every inch of lift. I went double that.😂😂
What’s the color name on that truck?
I wish I could buy this truck...
Makes my original paint 57,000 mile F260 highboy powered by a sidebolt 427
Look kinda lame
that sounds awesome

Interesting. Zero death wobble. Zero bump steer. One finger at 80 without worry.
‘Solomon’s I’m fan of you work videos but the video quality is not the best sometimes just honest opinion
Wheel tire brain fart. Otherwise a nice truck. Sounds like chirping birds.
The birds were so annoying
I have had a lot of concussions.😂
Chase
So is chase
Sounds like theres a flock of seagulls screaming at you, that would drive me up the wall. Couldnt drive that truck with that much noise...
Put the wheels bk in 😢
😆
79 square is NOT better
Bullshyt yes they are
73 round all the way baby
@@reggeckmann3993 🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮
I have a early 78 f250 camper special with factory round headlights. I prefer the look of the round headlights.
Squeaking squealing is so annoying wtf!!!
Birds
you really need to figure out your auto focus situation. i cant even watch this
Worst wheel and tire combo ever.
Ever?

your not wrong @@RunkStillRides
Normally run 37x13.5s
Nope had to stop what the heck with the squeaking or bird noise nope thumbs down sorry had to stop half way through sorry again
Birds...
Yeah what the hell is up with the chirping!?
Those wheels and tires are ugly
Awesome 😮😅😊
