Ford F-Series Friday

[OldSchoolBoats]

Lets get back on track with some cool shit. Lets see those Fords!!


My 2019 F250 Limited FX4 with 2.5 ICON / Bilsteins / Nitto RidgeGrapplers and Methods 35x12.5x17

 

[Bigbore500r]

 

[redone76]

1957 F-350…stock 272 Y-block. Rides like a tractor with a truck cab and she tops out at a blistering 50 mph.

 

[white tortilla]

 

[Ty N]

2002 F350 7.3L short box 4X4. 465k miles, new motor and trans 15k ago. Custom cut 22.5 semi truck Alcoa's

 

[charlyox]

Here is my ‘66 F100.

 

[25Elmn8r]

How about 2 F350's, an F150, and the Ranger counts because it has a Dana44 front and a Dana60 under it from a 70's F-Series.

Or this one, all F350 Crew cab long beds. Son's '16, my '05, and son-in-laws '11.

 

[rivermobster]

Here is my can of marbles...

 

[renodaytona]

2007 F-350, 132000 miles and only had to have the turbo serviced at 90K. It's going under the knife soon for the bed plate seal (getting a drip here and there) and new sinister EGR. Going to do the head studs, gaskets, coolant filter, and a new turbo while I'm at it.
Also shopping for a 2017 or newer F-350 dually, may end up ordering a new one but we will see in the next couple months.

 

[Ty N]

Been there!! Done a ton of those!!

Rear brake pads? lol….

 

[Tooms22]

2021 F350 - I've only done window tint and bed cover. Once the wife forgets about the pain of the purchase price, I'll level it with a Carli kit, 37s and 20s.

Stock with the black package looks pretty damn good though.

Love the color. Don’t do 20s! Go with 17s or 18s at 40-45 psi unloaded. Bump up to 60-65psi when hauling.

 

[JD D05]

Racing Days! And A little for the Dmax folk

02 F350 7.3. 466K miles. Original interior is as clean as the original exterior.

 

[79 HUSTLER]

 

[warpt71]

Not mine, but a really cool truck that was finished about 4 years ago

Then there is this one too

Such a nice truck. Gasser?

 

[OldSchoolBoats]

Thanks man. It is the 6.7 diesel.

 

[BUDMAN]

2007 bulletproofed F250. Might entertain offers, on the truck not the Hallett

 

[spectra bash]

My 1994 7.3 with 122,600 miles

View attachment 1087377

Nice setup. Would love to have both. You still have both?

 

[Tooms22]

The color is insane. At night, it looks like a darker grey/charcoal. During the day it's like a dark concrete. I swear it has some bluish/green in it too.

Why no 20s? I think they look great. Previous truck had 35s and 17s. I'm definitely not staying with 17s with a 37.

What is the name of it? When I spec’s out a STX I didn’t see it.

I had 20s and hated it. Currently have 17s and love it… more rubber, better ride. The 20s just felt heavy. CJC has a good blog to get inspiration!

That's exactly what I have on my truck. 17's with 37's. I run 4:56 gears and a gear vendors. Tows awesome.

I can't stand the look of rubber band tires on a full size truck. Much less how non functional they are off-road. But If you never use your truck off road, who cares I suppose?

I get my truck dirty every chance I get. This is my old gasser from back in the day...

Oh gotcha LoL.

 

[Mototrig]

I have the dumb 20" wheels on 37's but at least they are 14" wide
4.56's and a gear vendor

7.3 with the hydra tune and other mods.
Won't go 70 up the Grapevine pulling 12k like the new trucks but it'll pull 12k up the grape vine just fine..... And no DEF limp mode or stuck EGR to deal with.

I have the 07 axle and all components to do the leaf to coil swap.....just need the time to do it.

 

[Meaney77]

Ha!! Been there done that!! Those damn 6 Liters!!

How do you like that tuner? I have the SuperChips on mine. Works well. Get WAY better power and mileage in full power mode. Towing mode is almost as bad as stock!

I really like the hydra. Switch on the fly between tunes, daily driver and tow tunes. Much more power and lower EGT's than with the Banks 6 gun which was on it when I bought the truck.

But the biggest power came after I went to high flow CVT's in the fuel rails. It can only be done after a regulated fuel return is installed though.

 

[NicPaus]

Ha!! Been there done that!! Those damn 6 Liters!!

Looks like the 6.0 replacement the even better 6.4.

 

[westair]

My 2021 F250 ..... liked to have waited for the 7.3 but couldn't, maybe when they're

more available

 

[Spudsbud]

OMG...... stop it !!!
just when I think Im out........

Superchips is a generic tuner. The hydra and old school TS chips come with generic tunes but majority of people call a tuner and tell them about the mods to their truck and the tuner can make custom tunes specific to that truck and mods. Also to a chip has more tuning parameters on a 7.3 than a plug in play tuner. I have a TS chip with Gearhead tunes and the tow tune is unique to say. It's stock speed slow, doesn't accelerate fast, and shifts differently than the other tunes but when it comes to pulling a hill with an 8K load the truck will stay in 3rd and just sit at 1800 rpm and pull along. It won't really accelerate pass 1800 rpm but doesn't bog down below 1800 rpm. Keep in mind I'm just cruising, this isn't pedal to the floor. When it comes to mileage a bad tune will get worse mileage as where a good tune will get better mileage.

Ok, I looked up some 18s and 37s. I'm not opposed.

But 17s and 37s... they're fat donuts on a small piece of metal. Can't do it.

And that's the whole point. It's called flotation, and it's what you need for off-roading. Air down, the sidewalls flex, and you can go anywhere. Plus as mentioned, they ride 10x better too.

I get it though, everyone likes what they like.

The banks 6 gun is most definitely a generic tune.

But the hydra does not come with generic tunes.
Each tune bank is specific for various levels of modification on the 7.3 (i.e. stock, modified exhaust, modified fuel or injection oil volume, big oil, +15 injectors...) In my case I ran their modified exhaust/stock engine until I upgraded the HPOP to 10% higher volume and moded fuel. The change in tune dropped my EGT's but kept power the same.
Now for an extra fee you gain access to an elaborate library of moded tunes for various modification scenarios by various tuners.
