    Cab swap or?

    I have the ford “major repair” bracket that goes around the steering column and clutch master cylinder but haven’t braved that job yet as it appears the entire dash has to come out for it to happen basically l, steering column and pedal assembly ect, about to head out and take a couple picture...

    Cab swap or?

    I don’t think I’m gonna need floor pans or parts I only have like two whole the size of a pea on the floor, I just don’t want them expanding fast and I’m worried with the moisture leaking under my matting that it may continue. My major issue is my fire wall is redneck braced because my clutch...

    Cab swap or?

    Anyone know how well the rust stopper in a can works? When my carpet was out and I discovered this I hosed as much as I could down with a couple cans of that stuff that’s supposed to turn it into “black primer” color and it did sorta look black after

    Cab swap or?

    I’d get the title with the cab i got; we don’t have inspections so we can pretty much drive anything we put tags into no questions asked lol how difficult is it to do a cab swap? Cab it be done in a driveway? There are two cabs available around me basically complete one is a 460 truck and other...

    Cab swap or?

    So my cabs got the cracked firewall in multiple places and some minor rust spots going on, leaks are everywhere and the cab just seems to be dying a slow death at this point. Is it worth the effort to try and fix or should I buy another crew cab for 200$ that’s not dying? Motor is at 190xxx, but...

    Front clip swap?

    Was considering it because you can sorta tell from the picture nothing Is perfectly straight about my front clip, small dents in fenders, hoods a little crazy ect. Hopefully the bumper fits nicely I’d hate to have to find another I’ve got two of the enforcer bumpers but they are both bricknose

    Front clip swap?

    Debating a front clip swap from brick to areo, is it as simple as bolt on and go? I can get a front clip from the junk yard for pretty cheap for it, radiators the same? Wiring etc? Headlight bulb are different style but will they plug and play with my current harness? Should I even do a clip...

    Lift kits?

    My buddy has one that he’s putting on his truck but his came with the used lift he bought. my only thing is if the track bar isn’t lining up that would mean my axle is not centered properly and that would just be like a band aid for another issue? It’s really close I’m guessing my axle may have...

    Lift kits?

    @chillman88 well in theory I shouldn’t ever have to replace them, says lifetime warrantee for the shocks and my ranchos did hold up just fine the shocks themselves are still good they just look kinda ugly and they don’t quite reach full flex they are about 2 inches off. I’m just looking for the...

    obs wheels

    I think these look a little better than the stock Alcoa’s and still keep a more factory old school look, and they can be had somewhat cheap all the time around 1-200$ vs 600-1000 for the new style black ones with the fancy shapes and stuff

    Lift kits?

    Do I want nitro shocks or hydro shocks for my truck? They are the same price from skyjacker and I temporarily put some 8000’s in the front of mine because the old shocks I had were not long enough. The old ones were rancho (hydro) and these one are skyjacker (nitro) the new ones seem to ride...

    Factory Turbo upgrades

    Can have Russ modify your factory turbo better wheels or buy a r and d drop in stage 1 turbo. Hypermax/banks/ ats are all about the same becaus they are all “stock” turbos. Then need some more fuel and intercooler and you’ll be pulling good, probably not 325 at the wheels though but the torque...

    Lift kits?

    So onto creative ways to lift the back? Any ways to improve the ride any without sacrificing hauling ability much? I was considering airbags and a lighter leaf pack possibly because it’s a daily driver more than it tows stuff these days. There is a super duty at the yard where I get good deals...

    @Thewespaul it will rev to over 3500 in 3rd and below still, cable checks out I did the zip tie thing also. I was hoping not to mess with the pump too much because it still isn’t that old yet but maybe it’s been a while I just hope it doesn’t void the warrantee idk if that would or not it’s...

    DB2 Tuning Guide

    @Thewespaul how are you getting your truck up to 3500 in 5th gear? Mine just won’t do it even in 4th it just wants to be over with at like 2900? Pulls strong until above like 2500. And if I shift it will climb really fast in 4th and 5th till then and then it just seems to sign off. 1-2-3rd can...

    Sterling 10.25 threw up all over itself??

    That’s what mine did right before I pulled it out of gear and everything locked up for the last time on that rear end. Sorta vibrated and clunked around for about 10 miles of driving then some popping and banging around and it was done for but it still drove me home somehow . Upon inspecting it...
