Thanks for posting. There's a split on the NV271's, you'll need a 34 spline input so the application will be 03-08 F series. Yes, 17" wheels will be needed, I like a 4.5" backspacing. No need for the FF001 with the coil swap. We run a new D side exhaust pipe and route under the bell housing to the pass side, move the cat over there too depending on the exact application.

When you get the tank down, inspect for delimitation and replace the tank if it shows.

Held spring VanCamp this weekend. Great weather, my favorite spot! Small group this time, kids had a blast.

Another 7.3 arrival! This one is from TX and has already had a front clip swap. Going 6" on 35s (leaf) for a super solid setup!

Trucking along on DeJavier/Crows 3.0. This was the lower coil "spacer" that was bolted and welded to the C forging. Appears to be a piece of pipe with a cap welded to it. There was no retainer holding the spring either. All good now.

Twisted up the coil kits today to see what they can do. The 4" did better than expected with its limited up travel, 10" of front wheel travel at the hub. V8 didn't do as well, needs longer shocks. It has 880 coils which are more than the 5.4 needs so it sits high and ran out of shock travel. Look forward to the improvements!

Chris, I am happy to delete this if you don't want it in here:

I believe that additional mods have been made since this video was uploaded.

Livernois also has several nice upgrade packages, if one were so inclined. I love the idea of it, but I just can't pay 40 grand for a Ford Focus :D

I'm still in that honeymoon phase where I say I won't mess with it....... But its inevitable. Thanks for posting that, I hadn't seen it even though I'm a fan of Matt. I have a buddy in CA that has one too, has a tune that adds about the same power as Matts. I'm not one of those guys that is scared of warranty stuff so the tune will come :)
