lol yeah thats what made me think of it....I think maybe for once this truck needs a sticker on it. I think a big 'ol "RED ROCKET" sticker in the back window might look pretty good. Or the "Unaturally Aspirated..."
Or hell, bring back the "Poon-Platune" seeing as thats not running around anymore...
I was able to finish the dually delete and F-250 spring swap today.
Front F-350 spring vs F-250:
How it sits with F-250 springs up front:
Rear:
Final stance:
I also got the roll pan tacked in place, but need to sort out some fitment issues:
Only issue I have right now is with the driveline yoke. Apparently the gassers have a smaller u-joint/ yoke than the diesels do. Anyone know more about this?
IIRC - the gassers use a 1310 rear driveshaft and the diesels use a 1350 - but I could be mistaken slightly. I probably have a 1350 yolk off of a 10.5 sterling that came out of my red truck down in the shop if you want it its yours for the cost of shipping. Or you could get a 1310/1350 joint - but I'm not sure that would hold up all that well long term to the abuse you'll see with a diesel.
I think I might just run the conversion joint, this truck will rarely tow (only if the other truck is broke) and that u-joint will need to be replaced soon anyways. If I ever do run into issues with it I think I will just swap yokes.
I still have to put the corners on, but the roll pan is not flush with the tailgate, it sits proud around 1/8. Need to figure out a easy solution for this before I move on.
