Very nice.

I particularly like the steering wheel exchange. How did you figure out what to order for that exchange? Also, as I am not mechanically inclined, do you think that is something a Ford service department would be willing to perform for me?

Thank you for the compliments. I bought a new ford steering wheel on Ebay from a ford parts retailer for $219.00 bucks. Steering wheel
I removed my steering wheel and changed the steering wheel buttons from my XL on to the new wheel and then installed it back on the truck.
It did not take more than 2 hours an made a big difference in driving the truck to me.
I am sure ford or any other good mechanic can handle the job for you.

Great looking RCSB and thanks for posting your build. I want to do much of the same when my truck is eventually built and delivered, starting with color match painting my bumpers, did regular body shop paint them? I assume you started with chrome bumpers.

Truck looks awesome. What are the width and offset of your wheels? Any rubbing with those tires? Trying to decide between 305/40 or 45.

Thanks and yes they were chrome. Mine are powder coated, not an exact match and not quite as slick as paint, but hopefully a little more durable.

Last night I began the power seat swap. I bought a driver and passenger 10 way power seats from the wrecking yard. I checked the wiring to make sure it matched with my drivers seat. Sure enough it matched perfectly. When I plugged the drivers side in it worked exactly like it should, so that side is plug and play. I will try the passenger tonight and see what happens.
Next I will swap my seat foam and leather over to the power bases. I also ordered a console to install when it arrives.

The console also came off of Ebay. The price was steep but I had no luck buying local.
The place I bought it from also includes all the parts for the install including the radio bezel, so I broke down and bought it.

I finished the power drivers seat install Saturday.
I am also still dealing with vibrations from the lowering kit. I have moved the brackets and shims multiple times and still have a problem. Ride Tech said the composite springs cause this problem. I will probably order new steel springs from a 2020 model from Ford this week.
