    SXE 363/68/.83 + 200/30 hybrids?

    if i were to start over, i would buy the 363 version from kc turbo as a drop in and pick some good tunes on stock inj's. i say this based on the e99 turbo mine came with. it performed better then the late 99 turbos except, it ran out of breathe pulling the I80 wyoming hills at 75 mph with the...

    SXE 363/68/.83 + 200/30 hybrids?

    so there isn't an actual 60 or 80 hp tow tune per say by every tuner. jelibuilt calls his heavy tow and performance tow. stock tunes are not stock , they are stockish. php's 40hp tow tune isn't a 40 hp tow tune that a stock truck would use so it's very hard to answer that question. towing heavy...

    SXE 363/68/.83 + 200/30 hybrids?

    i currently run hybrid 205/30's and the sxe 363 bw turbo with .91 exh. with 3.73 gears , 75 mph towing a toyhauler camper loaded to 10,500 lbs works well. infact, towing it empty at 7200 lbs, i leave it in stockish mode w/o issues. the last drive was a 9hr drive to mt rushmore and back in...

    SXE 363/68/.83 + 200/30 hybrids?

    it would set a cel before i installed the boost fooler. it would set the cel light at or very close to 28 psi with a tuner installed that claimed they were tuning some of that out. with the boost fooler installed i do not have a cel.

    developed some steering play

    i drove the truck yesterday and between the blue top gear box and the new steering shaft it is rock solid! here are 3 pics, one of the pn# on the original steering shaft and one of the pn# on the sticker of the replacement shaft. the new ford shaft is visually built differently and a tad...

    developed some steering play

    i considered one of there shafts but i didnt know how much additional vibration was transmitted through there shafts and was in a time crunch. ford had one in stock so i went back with oem. i just turned 142k miles on this truck so and i have noticed this problem steadily getting worse the last...

    developed some steering play

    i had replaced all the steering components and that helped but wasn't it. adjusted the oem steering box 5 times and helped but wasn't it. problem seemed to progressively loosening up and especially felt with a 30' camper in tow. i decided to replace the steering gear box with a blue top. i did...

    developed some steering play

    i didnt know there was a bushing inside that could wear like that. i was just assuming that rag joint was probably worn.

    developed some steering play

    over the last 2 years, i have adjusted the steering gear box 5 times. the truck had the best steering out of any ford diesel i had owned to date. i purchased the truck with 80k miles on it. the previous owner bought it to tow his fifthwheel only and i use it the same or 90% of the time. with...

    SXE 363/68/.83 + 200/30 hybrids?

    yes, my post was based on my personal experience and not on other posts. i agree that the larger turbos require a different driving style. my issue is that i cannot keep the rpms where i want them. not with out risk of speeding tickets anyway. what i mean by that is......when towing my...

    SXE 363/68/.83 + 200/30 hybrids?

    as i listed above, my truck has 3.73 gears. i do have a boost fooler however, the tuner does tune some out. i believe at 28 psi it would set an over boost cel but that would turn off a mile down the road. 4.10 gears would be perfect for that 366 imo.
