One thing I that don't like is that the 08 does not have a hood insulator , my guy at the dealer is checking to see if he can find out for me , but the trucks that they have in stock do not have them , I want to cut down on heat & noise .

dude where you been...they havent had that since at least
2004...we could buy the 99-03 hood insulation but now that
theyve changed the truck i dont know if that would even fit.
they also (long ago) deleted the front door courtesy lights, glove
box light and fender liners...i cant remember the last time i
saw a glove box lock either (i think my 96 had one)

Just checked my invoice the part are real cheap from Ford ,headlamps $135, ft bumper assy $251, tailgate $201, , taillamps $ 28, I get a real good deal from Ford due to the amout I buy every month , but the list price is on the hood is 158, the hood for a 2003 list for 421. the list prices are too low for me. ?

Ford must have one hell of a markup then because I priced out an 08 tailgate and I can tell you that when all the components were added it totalled $1700....that's just for the tailgate, step, grabhandle, and other misc items that were needed.
Thats awesome if you are getting it at the prices you are listing

Where the fender bolt up in the rear by the door is not the same but I am going to cut my old fender bracket off and weld on to new fenders all the top bolts are the same , I dont think the frame is going to be a problem with the new brackets ,or I will weld a plate to my frame and offset the height , there's a hole on the apron that I am going to use for the hood support struts , the hood release cable mounts to the frame with a seperate cable & lever, if I don't get radiator support by end of week I am going to play with my radiator support and see if I can make it work . I want to get this done so that I can work on my big brake calipers and new wheels [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/warmsmile.gif[/img]

Here I come to rain on the parade. If I were forced into buying an '08, I'd be looking for a back to '06 conversion. I have five more years to avoid panic about the current body style though. The old 87 body style kind of spooked me too, and I got used to it. I just hope that they have a leather (King Ranch??) with carpet delete option by then.
Later
Bill
