Switched from the "Stubby" antenna that got absolutely zero reception to this Steedfast 14" antenna. Even inside my garage in an area that doesn't have good radio stations to begin with I was picking stations up. Still fits in the garage and I can actually listen to the normal radio now. Definitely suggest it to anyone looking for a shorter antenna. Comes with 4 different adapters if you need them.

I usually stream my own music but sometimes I like listening to the local games on the radio and the stubby got absolutely zero reception.

Swapped out a frozen rear caliper the other day. Today though I cleaned my way over due no limit filter. Removed the filter and the intake was as clean as could be.

Changed my ball joints, and u joints. Need to change my fan clutch. I'm debating going with the 7.3 mechanical fan clutch kit for the 6.0 from BPD. Any9ne have any experience with this kit?

Just did mine this last weekend. Much better fan operation. I also installed the BPD water pump since it was just 4 bolts from being off.. They recommended the motorcraft belt due to aftermarket belts being longer resulting in less tension. While I was upgrading those I installed a new thermostat too.

What are your Temps like? I thought about getting the water pump too, but idk if I can swing it this week, but have to do the fan clutch.

It's not a fair comparison for temps because I found my thermostat to be stuck in a slightly open position, it won't close any further or open. I'd say it's stuck in the 30% position. Prior to the upgrades I would hit 230 ECT and 240 EOT. but these high temps were directly related to my thermostat not flowing. Towing 10k up the same hill it's hard to get past 205/215. My electric fan was bad but it really should come into play at idle and slow speeds. Idle and slow speeds my temps are 195/200. My water pump was good but since I was in there and I tow with my truck every day, I wanted to touch everything.. I only run motorcraft coolant and distilled water. I also changed my coolant filter 20 miles After all the new parts.

I did the swap a couple weeks ago, but think I have a possessed clutch. Mine stays locked nearly all the time. Accelerating, cruising, highway speeds...all I hear is the loud unmistakeable roar of a locked fan clutch. Haven't really paid attention to oil/coolant temps yet, but I quickly noticed even on 90 degree days, my trans temp never makes it to 160 since it's always locked. Contacted BPD about it and they said run it a little more and see if it loosens up. So far, it hasn't.

If your temps are where they're supposed to be I would guess that you got a bad clutch. Mine seemed stiff for about one or two miles. Right now I only hear it when I takeoff after idling for a bit. It's a very smooth engagement. I also feel more air moving with my hands at idle and my ac is blowing colder at idle.

Finally finished sound deadening the floor, ceiling, back wall, and installed all of my stereo components that have been sitting around in my way for years. It as a big undertaking but all of my interior is finally back in the truck!

Got the 07 Harley Davidson headlights in. Cutting the headlights wasn't as bad as I thought it would be
12 250 KR paint matched headlights
Pulled apart the factory headlights, did paint to match on housings tuxedo black and pale adobe metallic. painted the orange marker light with the running W logo negative space, lights up nice with a small led bulb behind it. added the led strips also, they are switchbacks with amber turn signals, the white is a little bit more purple than I had hoped but looks good. don't mind the info in my sig, ill update it.
