You're the expert. I just know my buddy swapped out his Sterling for a D80 on his SRW F350, and all it did was push the wheels out further. Sterling axle shafts didn't like the 700hp compound turbo Cummins when he hooked up to a pulling sled.

Get a Dana 80 from a DRW F350 pickup 2003 and 2004. 8x170 bolt pattern.

Managed to make use of FORScan to adjust my tire size so that my actual speed is closer to indicated. I'm still going faster than indicated on the speedometer, but 2% off is better than 13%. Last time I tried, I got a code in the TCM, so I reset back to original. I still got the code this time...

Look at the Load Index, not just the Load Range (D or E). Also, check the capacity of the rims or axle, they might not even be strong enough to handle the max load of the tire. https://www.toyotires.com/media/2125/application_of_load_inflation_tables_20170203.pdf

Look like Baja Designs LP6. I wouldn't think Chris would use a knock-off.

Do you have the ability to tilt the panels to optimize solar effectiveness? Otherwise the 640W will only be attained at noon on the equator.

My Toyo OC M/T 38x13.50R18LT D are 2910# @ 35psi, 3750# @ 50psi. The OEM supplied E load LT265/70R17 had 2910# @ 65psi, 3195# @ 80psi. I run the 38" MT at 35psi for normal usage and for when I add load to max capacity of the truck, I only inflate to 39psi for the rears, which equals the max...

Certainly you can wire as you did, but you physically need to switch it off and on as needed. Oncoming traffic requires dimming the highs and turning off the light bar, unless you're an @$$ and don't give a ******** if you're blinding them. Chances are if you need the light bar, you'd benefit from...

My understanding is UJOR won't do the install on the older vehicles, but will still offer the parts for self or 3rd party installation.

If the braking is flexing the radius arm mounts, then it needs bracing. Add a cross-over X brace to stiffen laterally too.

Your best connection will be solder and adhesive lined shrink tube. Nothing is guaranteed to not fail, even a continuous wire/cable could break mid-length.

I couldn't see anywhere posted if the DW was cured. My truck has 7" lift and radius arm drop brackets brace back about 16" and are heavily gusseted. Also the drop trackbar bracket is triangulated and bolted to the main crossmember I've never had issues with DW. Looking back on the...

I fully redid the front too. Progressive 7" springs, adjustable radius arms, and specifically valved Fox shocks. That alone improved the ride over stock. The traction bars mostly come into play during acceleration, but also on loose surfaces where wheel slip and grip would wrap.

I had soft 5" Icon springs with 1" block on my old truck and needed traction bars to control axle wrap. Snapped the Fabtech ladder bars w/ shackle chassis mounts that I originally installed before swapping to One Up Offroad. Current truck uses stock leaf packs, even keeping the extra load leaf...

Your current rear axle probably has the wheel speed sensor on a differential mounted tone ring. 2005-2010 F2/350s had that configuration. in 2011 they went to individually installed in each hub.

Excursion always had leaf spring front, even on 05 models, and the rear axle was unchanged from original model. Drivetrain same as a 2000-2004 F250/350.

The 2005 and newer Sterlings have a wider hub to match the wider front D60. Wheels have more backspace to keep them tucked in. 16" wheels confirm its a 2004 or older axle. Minimum wheel diameter for 2005+ is 17". Newer rotors are 0.6"(14mm) larger. Old one looks correct for that axle, the new...

This not entirely true. The taller block is the only thing giving an F350 a 1ton rating over the 3/4ton rating of an F250. Sure there are options for towing and camper packages that have auxiliary leafs, but all things equal it is only the block. I run the stock leaf w/ aux leaf , 8" OUO...

Spray foam will offer the best R-value, and with it being applied directly to the body, it will prevent space for moist air to condense. Roxul will dry out and if it ever gets wet and not deteriorate. Can do a splash and batt blend; Spray against the body and fill the rest with Roxul. Project...

I've had the best results from Toyo MTs. Tried Cooper ST (had a blowout), BFG AT (wore way too fast), Toyo M55 (too hard compound, lasted long but sucked in snow), Toyo ATs (2nd best I've had)
