What do you think of the Bilstein 5160’s? Do you have much side to side sway when moving around in the camper?
I’m thinking I made need to replace the Donahoe mono tube shocks I’m running now.

Great thread and I have a long way to go yet to review it.
Thought I’d go ahead and post up my project. Still have a few kinks to work out but pretty stoked so far.
Thanks Basil. The link points to non-powered, manual mirrors. I think you said the ones you have are powered?? My rig is a 2002 with powered mirrors, like yours I'd think. It's always tough finding good reliable aftermarket options so having folks like you willing to share your experiences helps...
Can you tell us which Amazon mirrors you chose?
Are they the powered ones and if so how did the install go? Were you able to get them wired to the existing plug?
I so want to upgrade to the new style mirrors and the OEM parts are stupid expensive. Let us know what you think of these as far as...
I’ve seen some folks use a 4’ aluminum step ladder, modified by removing the legs opposite the steps and rigging a means to secure to the side rail of the camper/bed. Fairly cost and space effective solution and what I may use.

Were these custom built for your rig based on it’s weight or did they have a “stock” custom setup they use. I’ve got a build in progress where I think a new spring setup will be in order too. Very interested to hear what you think of these after some testing.

Just got notice yesterday that the elusive IGT slide in extension tables were in stock at SP website. Got my order in for 2x Long & 2x Short plus a few other goodies.

You should be able to return the Amazon purchase if you weren't able to cancel in time.
Just cite the web description as being inaccurate and there should be no charge to return.

If you used PhotoBucket there's a good chance files are inaccessible unless you pay for their premium service or some such BS. I have heard bad things about PB of late. Sad.

I had started down this road as well and received support from others here. I ran out of bandwidth and haven't pursued further. I have images and some measurements. PM me or look back in the thread.

Thanks all for the lift/wheel/tire info.
I've started a shared spreadsheet linked here:

I'm planning to share elsewhere but hoping this will become a useful resource for folks. Some recent posts still lack...
07 HD Headlight Swap
After you cut this piece out, is this what you modified and put back in?
If you just removed the old section, where do you mount the 07 assembly to?
And my final question, do you have a recommended source for the 07 HD headlights or is a Google search the way you...
Amazing build and a great thread. Thanks for bringing us all along on this cool journey.
I'm starting an expedition build with my 02 F350 PSD and will be pulling some of your mods for my work. I'm always looking for ideas and learning from those who have taken the time to post and enlighten the...
