Put 08 mirrors with ptm caps and door handles on, and replaced the windshield and tinted 35% while it was out. Still quite a more to do, going to do the grille surround oxford white
Upper bumper cover is done, and i have a black and white ford emblem for the grille when it's done too, then new paintable bumper in the spring time.



Can't express how much I want this truck 🤤

Fresh oil change le 8800 and put in some rev x. First time using this and boy does it quite up the single shot injectors. First time running an oil additive and can tell a difference with idle too.

soooo, did you just switch to 8800 or have you been running it? and why rev x with the 8800 if you just now switched to 8800?

This will be the second time I have ran the 8800. Truck ran very nicely with it. Changed it at 5k and just decided to throw in the rev x. I plan on running it out to around 4k and doing an oil test to see how it's looking. But I can definitely tell the injectors are more quiet and the truck runs even smoother than it did on the first run of the 8800.

I'm willing to bet that the fresh 8800 alone was enough being that the first oil change with 8800 still had a bit of whatever old oil you used.. did jim tell you to add the Rev x?

No he didn't. Just did it for ****s. I was running delo 5w 40 for a while before going to let 8800. The truck and I bought love the 8800. Don't think I will ever use another oil.

cant wait to switch to 8800. Finishing out my t5 10w-30 to 5k miles on the odomoeter (per jim's request), then sending in an oil sample, lastly oil change over to the 8800.

Out of curiosity, why did you decide on the 800 instead of the 8854?

waste of money. 8800 has a better add pack then rev x alone.. lol.. with LE, it is time to trust in your oil!!!
Trans filter and fluid change... Little too late... I believe this trans is done...

Yea... Never been serviced in the 140k miles of is life... The last 90k haven't exactly been babied... Lol! It started by hesitating going into 4th then got to where 4th was not there all in a few days... After service drove it and now gotta get to 1500+ rpm to get it to think about moving... It is full of fluid.

Lil material on the magnet, some clutch material in the pan. Filter was really nasty looking.
