    2000 Super Duty ; Who is running ARB OME suspension?

    I am running 315-75-16 with the OME spring the only rub is at full lock and they rub on the spring so a wheel size issue not tire size. Like I said the ride is much better on road with just the front springs.

    2000 Super Duty ; Who is running ARB OME suspension?

    I have a 2004 CC long bed Power Stroke. I put OME front springs and shocks with the OME tracbar in about 6 months back. The ride is much better, no more hard hits form pot holes it floats down the road. Off-road flex is better so you don't spin as easy and if you hit a hole or something it...

    255 toyo or 285 duratrac

    Just took a set of 285/75/16 Duratracs off a 2004 F350 CC Long Bed with a Powerstroke. Got 95,000 miles had 3 to 5 32nd left. Rotating them every 5000 and air set at 58 to 62 in front and 50 rear unloaded. That was a big mix of towing and city miles. Just put 315/75/16 Duratracs On so I...

    You do not pull the cab to do injectors. I have replaced 1 in both right and left banks. Do not pull cab!

    We are just finishing up a LQ4 6.0 in my sons 1986 Chevy truck. The swap is so easy did the harness ourselves. You will love the way they run so much better than old school.

    Gear oil temp ?

    Have not heard that one. Why is the hole not 5/8 lower then? Fill it till it just runs out and be done.

    09 F350 shocks?

    So I have some questions does this truck have a lift in it? Do you lower you tire pressure off road? How can you tell it needs more caster?

    Is that Tiedown strong enough?

    The best thing you can do is over build. If you get hit hard or roll hard and stuff starts to move it will rip tie downs out of wood. The big thing is to keep it in it place and not to move. I have seen a small tool box come lose in a wreak and bend a seat back over pop open and stick a...

    Is that Tiedown strong enough?

    I was looking at your pics and since we are talking safety. The welds that I can see in your pics do not look strong or well done at all. If they are just a tac weld ok but what is seen looks week. Need better pics of the welds to tell.

    Comp4x4 makes a hinge that looks just like the one you have. So I was asking if that is who you got it from. I was asking if Buckstop installed it the hinge in the bumper or did you. So the short answer is you bought it that way from Buckstop with the hinge pin.

    Is that a Comp 4x4 hinge pin in the bumper? Did Buckstop install it or did you have it done? Is the bumper built strong enough for the swing arm or did it need to be built up more?

    Full size breakes what are you running

    In the past I have done the lifetime warranty. I felt that they where hard on rotors and did not stop as well as a non lifetime. Have you felt that with the stuff you are running? The OE stuff went 105K then I truned the rotors and put on NAPA premium pads and went 80K. I am after more...
