    Lowering 2017 350 single wheel CC

    I took the stock block out of the rear of my 250 and replaced with the PMF 1.5" tall block the first week I got it. It's the shortest block we can run without bottoming out stock shocks. It is more level now but the rear is still about a half inch taller and it looks nice. I did it so I...

    Platinum/King Ranch tailgate panel removal

    Hi, I have been searching but haven't found anything yet. I have a 17 KR with the silver tailgate panel like the platinum version and want to get it painted. Is there anyway to get the bottom row of tabs out with out breaking it all to pieces? I've seen where some guys have done it before but...

    Lowered 2017s?

    I put the PMF 1.5" tall block in the rear in place of the factory 3.125 block on mine. I am still over an inch taller in the back than up front but it looks a million times better than stock (I parked next to a stock one tonight while getting diesel). It wouldn't go in my garage the way it...

    King Ranch vs Platinum

    I got a mono blue KR ultimate a few weeks ago, they really are all they are made out to be. Get all the options like everyone says, you don't want to wish you would have had a certain option after spending that much money.

    Got the usual bottom left side radiator leak, any advice on bars leak or replacement?

    My 13 did the same at 88k or so back in December. I just swapped it out with a new stock radiator. It was in the high $500's from the dealer just like throttlejockey. Wasn't a bad job, I got it all apart by my self but had to get another set of hands to hold everything to get the new one...

    What brake pads are rotors are the best for 2013

    Mine were squeaking on my 13 and I just replaced them with the stock motorcraft pads a few months ago. No squeaks or noises anymore. I had about 70,000 on the stock pads and they were almost to the metal. Didn't touch the rotors.

    Traction bars

    Jared, I never put my OUO bars on my 13. Everything is still in the boxes in the garage. I am sure the front mounts are pretty much the same (just have to tap the holes in the boxed frame) but are the mounts for the axle the same for the 13 and the 17? The mounts I have go on the bottom of...

    The Next Chapter

    Does it look like a passenger side front door handle will swap to the drivers side (upside down) to get rid of the keyhole but still keep the little sensor thing in it?

    6.7L Powerstroke Billet Oil Pan

    I like the drain pointing down, I might have to pick one up. Does it come with everything needed to install or do I need to get some gaskets or screws?

    Texas guys (DPF/EGR 2011+ content)

    I'm west of Fort Worth. Last year when I went to get my 2010 inspected the first place gave me the no muffler line... I went down the road to the next place and got my sticker. The guy that passed mine even showed me the rules where it says that a turbine can be substituted for a muffler... My...

    New Changes with Pictures

    Thanks guys. I would love to get rid of the steps but I need to buy a house in a month or two so I will see how much play money I have left over after that to get some Amp steps. JD, If I change my mind on the lights I'll be sure to let you know, I just think I would have to do something...

    New Changes with Pictures

    This is my first crack at appearance mods and I am very happy how everything turned out. I always hated how much chrome was on the front end of these 6.7s so I happened to stumble across some king ranch bumpers that the price was right on, so I picked them up and got the process started. I...

    Everything else he had back there was chrome. You might check with some of your local shops to see what they have or tell them to be on the look out for you. I've seen a handful of them pop up on craigslist.

    $150 for the caps seems high... these are just the smooth plastic that is ready for paint. This is at the dealership and they painted a door handle for my 2010 for $20 a few years ago so I am hoping they dont get too carried away. I could see the bumpers costing more since they are currently...
