I don't know how many here really GAF but I finally got my Mountaineer up a little with some new tires and wheels...

That is identical to what I traded in on my LS last month.

Soon enough Sooner. I have to finish fabbing my front bumper to match the rear with a skid plate to protect the radiator. Damn Ford Engineers made the Radiator hang 6" below the frame, and 2 tranny cooling lines below that. WTF! You can see it in the second pic.
The one and only time I took it mudding stock to see what it needed improvement on, the rear bumper filled up with a ton of mud. Which ultimately ended up in my driveway. The same with the lower rear quarters. So I cut them off too
The only thing I want to remove that I can't is the tupperware running boards. My wife can't lift my son's carseat up into it without stepping up on it. Not really worth fabbing something that I'm only going to use for a year or so. I'll just take them off when I go mudding.

They are just as useless as the tupperware. I need to actually fab rock sliders for it that bolt to the frame, not the body.

Muddin in luxury. I like it!! If you ever make it to swampeast (southeast) Missouri, we've got some pretty good bogs down here.
