    The Next Chapter

    Quick google search info here, so I may be wrong. Don’t hold this as gospel truth. Job 1 has single rear usb outlet. Job 2 has dual. Obviously crew cab info.

    The Next Chapter

    Of course it’s stock 17-18. He even said so. It’s just that they got better rods for the 17-18 and someone has to be brave enough to find the limit of them. Honestly I’m not gonna push mine to the edge. But I appreciate what mike is doing. Without testing we have no knowledge.

    Well I did it

    Congrats man. You sorta sound like I did a few months ago. I also had a 7.3 I held near to Heart. Man these new 6.7’s pull so effortlessly you won’t even believe what you experienced the first time. I mean it literally sounds and feels like there is no load.

    Go faster engaged

    The new tune is night and day better in mine. Running the 75 hp tune I can’t get it to do anything that feels weird. With the 200 loaded, I think it was slipping the converter. I should have done a datalog, with it loaded, and tried to see for sure. I am gonna stick with the 75hp tune for a...

    Go faster engaged

    it was about 2 weeks ago that darkside sent me 2 new tunes. Not sure if that’s what you are speaking of??? The second gear torque converter lock tune is what I’ve got loaded. It worked much better than the original tune they sent, but still felt like it would slip until the converter locked. Not...

    17-18?

    A buddy of mine just bought an 18 xlt, pretty much the same as mine other than it has the 360 degree camera. Not sure on other packages

    Yes that’s me. But I don’t want a refund. I knew ******** would come at some cost. Continued support is all I ask.

    Mike I don’t know if you haven’t connected my email with my screen name but we’ve talked a lot and I will never bad mouth you. You have helped tons. Some of your employees messed up and it’s just a hiccup that was quickly corrected. My only issue at the moment is the 3-4 shift. I’ve been too...

    Sled pulling....anyone done it with a 17+

    So back to what I was saying about pulling a trailer. Let’s consider pulling a steep mountain grade. You are full throttle in 3rd gear (*** that mountain). It’s the same torque on the transmission output as pulling the sled in low range, however it’s significantly less on the drive shafts and...

    Sled pulling....anyone done it with a 17+

    Some simple math you might grasp. If you pull a 6.7 truck in high range 1st gear you will pull at 14.1:1 final drive ratio. It’s 3.974X3.55 if you have 3.55 geared truck. Which is a decent final ratio for a diesel. If you pull in low side of the transfer and 3 gear of the trans it’s about a...

    Sled pulling....anyone done it with a 17+

    Another reason is that when sled pulling you run low range. The lower axle and transfer case ratio’s help to reduce the torque output on the rear output shaft of the trans. It’s really not facing anymore torque when pulling a sled in third gear than it is in high range pulling a trailer. I have...

    Sled pulling....anyone done it with a 17+

    My reasoning that my trans will be fine is that I have seen dozens of d’leeted and tuned 6.7’s pull with no issue. I truly have no idea when Ford went with an aluminum rear drive shaft, but I know all 6.7’s have 6r140’s. I pulled my old 7.3 truck many times over the year’s with no issue. I can’t...

    Sled pulling....anyone done it with a 17+

    my trans doesn’t mess up in 1-3. The only shift concerning is 3-4 and that’s not gonna happen pulling a sled. So yeah my trans will be fine.

    The only reason I broke subject was fear of that beer can repurposed, and aimed at my rear axle
