I run Fox for the simplicity of self rebuilding. I bought the needle valve tools and a nitrogen tank and few extra tools to make the work easier.
I have a spare complete set of shocks and steering dampers that I can swap out as needed and then rebuild on my time as I only have the truck as my...
Definitely not the 6.4PSD. If 2020 was an engine, it would be the 6.4. I had a 6.0L and it had issues too, but they could somewhat be dealt with. I prefer the Superduty to the Ram, but the older 5.9 common rail 6bt is a good engine. Destroked is an option. Find a Ford roller and swap and Cummins.
Gave it a full spa treatment. Winters here are pretty tough and the snow plows create iron filings that get thrown onto the pain, leaving specks of rust particles. Would also find that near railways I used to spend a day with a clay bar and detailer liquid cleaning the surface. This time I use...
Spring rate is a compression resistance factor. If both compression and rebound were equally affected by spring rate, then the damping would be equal as well. My rear shocks (specifically valved for my leaf sprung F350) have way softer compression damping than the very aggressive rebound...
Your shocks need to be valved for the air ride. The leafs rebound with high energy, and air springs even more so. Really need some heavy rebound damping to get a good ride.
The charge circuit is only for keeping the batteries topped up. The size of the wire and the fuse are only for low current applications. I ran into the problem with a dumping trailer that had a low battery. If I towed that trailer more often, I'd run a fused heavy gauge cable pair from the...
The NSBR uses an anti-rattle receiver pin. I've never had an issue with excessive movement the few times I've used my brother's, even on rough gravel roads. My brother regularly carries 4 bikes with his 4runner.
The weight is pretty much vertical, not levered out as one (or more) of you are...
Extremely popular here is the North Shore Bike Rack https://www.northshoreracks.com/. The only downside to the design is that the racks do not work for road bikes. Options for 2, 4 or 6 bikes.
I don't know how the ride quality of an F350 could be made worse. My ratted out 2004 F350 with a 250,000km on 7" Icon suspension rode way better than my 2016 out of the box.
'16 has 7" Icon/OUO/Fox lift since 4000km and now has 64000km. Running 38" Toyo MT
I speak from experience. I have HIDs for headlamps and LEDs in the fogs and markers. My LEDs will ice over and the heads stay clear. Snow in the mountains of southern BC is usually just below freezing, so tends to be stickier than interior or northern snow.
