    TexasSixSeven F-350 build

    No Limit EGR full delete, Flo Pro 4” delete pipe, as EZ Lynk with PPEI support pack for the tune with SOTF switch. Nothing too crazy. Set me back about $1700 for that, with the majority going to the EZ Lynk tuner. $1300 for it.

    TexasSixSeven F-350 build

    It’s been a while since I’ve updated this. Since my last post I’ve slowed it down a bit, but have done two large mods. First I mounted the 37x12.50 Toyo RTs. I had ordered a 2” BDS level for it, and had the tires mounted a few days early with the intent of leveling it that weekend. Well I really...

    2017 F250 for Cape Horn

    The stock tires on factory 20” rims are 34.5”. I’ve driven them with both 3.73 and 4.30s. Either do just fine. I’d opt for the 4.30 if spending any decent amount of time towing, but I can’t see a single reason to regear to 4.56 when 4.30 is a factory option. Definitely not just because you want...

    Big50's 2017 F250 Build

    I’ve got 4K miles on my 37-12.50 Toyo RTs on my 17’ 350. Responsiveness and braking definitely took a hit, as well as mileage. But this truck has plenty of power and brakes left. As far as the tires they look much better in person on the truck, and pictures don’t do them justice. For my uses I...

    TexasSixSeven F-350 build

    Not worried about stopping or acceleration. The truck has plenty of power, the factory tires are 34.5”, and I will be deleting/tuning it soon enough. Between the factory brakes, exhaust brake, and trailer brakes I can shut the truck down pretty quick. I’ve driven a 17’ on 37s already, and while...

    TexasSixSeven F-350 build

    I pull a loaded lowboy gooseneck pretty often myself, so ease of removal will be absolutely necessary. I’m thinking of fabbing up a mid height bed rack in the next month or two to try out, then make a refined version later next year. After I figure out what changes I’d like.

    TexasSixSeven F-350 build

    Since the last time I’ve posted I’ve done a bit more than planned. Or at least ordered. I added some Baja Designs S2 combo lights to my front bumper to replace the factory fogs. These are a drastic improvement in low and wide visibility. I’ve got another pair of Baja Designs Squadron pod scene...

    Megacab VS Crewcab Ram 2500

    I can load my truck down pretty easily with 2500 lbs of people and gear. Payload capacity is 3400 lbs, and I’ve already stretched it slightly over. That’s a single wheel F-350, so not a 3/4 ton. Looking at overlanding the 3500 may be overkill, but capacity always helps. Plus the 3500 comes...

    Awesome. Glad to see more of these rigs being set up. Get some pics up!

    TexasSixSeven F-350 build

    If I intended to wheel this seriously then I'd absolutely consider a larger lift. I did about 400 miles of forest service roads two weeks ago, and skipped the last 80 miles I'd have liked to have done. The limiting factor at that time was my trailer, which will most likely be getting a shackle...

    TexasSixSeven F-350 build

    As it sits with both tanks full of diesel it's right around 8700 lbs. You're thinking about the same as myself.

    TexasSixSeven F-350 build

    Factory tires are something like 10.8" wide. An 11.50 will have a bit more bite to them, and still help alleviate some of the rubbing that a 12.50 would have.

    TexasSixSeven F-350 build

    If I go the 37 route I was considering Nitto Trail Grapplers for the simple fact they make them in a 37x11.50. That would alleviate some clearance issues. I don't plan to stuff the tires too severely. Mostly forest service roads and the like.

    2017 F-250 Overland/Hunt-Rig build

    Haha I've got a F-350 CCLB with front and rear bumpers. I've got about 3" of clearance in the front, 1" of clearance in the back (thank goodness for cameras when backing), and currently 1/4" of clearance up top. I can gain an additional 3 1/2" of clearance up top with some work though, which...

    2017 F-250 Overland/Hunt-Rig build

    Can't wait to see how it turns out. Hopefully that won't persuade me to go that direction. 2.5" with 37s is the largest I can make fit in my garage.

    TexasSixSeven F-350 build

    I keep going back and forth between 2" and 295s, or 2.5" and 37s. I'm most likely going Toyo RT, and keeping them on the stock wheels. I've got about 10k miles to make the decision which route I'm going though.

    TexasSixSeven F-350 build

    I've done a few small things lately. Ended up with bumpers, rear Rigid Duallies in the bumper, and a aux tank so far. I need to take the time to set up an Imgur account so I can post some pics.
