    WTF is this noise? Its driving me nutts

    I don't have clearance lights on mine and its done it on the 2011 and the 2012. ITs not around the windshield, although it sounds like it. But not often enough for me to worry about it. Hasn't done it in the warm weather. I think its s piece of rubber or flap/seal that gets caught just the right...

    King Shocks with Resi's 2011-12 F250/350

    Just posting these up. Originally purchased for my 2011 F250 6.7 with 2.5" level in front. I was back and forth bit with King about fitment so they have spent less time on the truck (sold truck in May 2012) and more time in garage or at King getting tuned up. Shocks have less than 4,000 miles...

    DEF Vid has me Leary

    I think if you were doing an around the globe trip and didn't want to stop for DEF, it could leave you stranded. I added some (never low, just topped it off) at 4800 miles, 8700, 11300, 14600, 22196.... never a "low DEF" light yet. when you check it via the message system, it may say "less than...

    My 2011 Lift Build Begins

    ****. I've had Ranch Hands on my last 2 Super duties. There are real trucks and then there are city trucks that never see dirt on the wheelwells or a scratch the bed. I've run over trees, pushed cows (1200-1600 lb cows) and kept most non-insurance having city trucks from "invading my space...

    Some questions about my 2012...

    theres not a finned cover on the rear of the 11 or 12 (that I have seen), not one on my 11, built in 03/11. Maybe its just on the 350's... Far as Im aware the oil pans are both the poly cover with the half turn yellow drain plug. The poly is for noise reduction properties for the 6.7 The only...

    Fastest 6.7

    yep, I went Friday night, it was dark, but walking thru the Ford area, I saw it too... low and sleek (compared to my F250 apartment/truck) lol it was very cool to see it there.

    Im looking for the Heavy Duty All Weather floor mats for the 2011 SuperDuty. I always see em in black, as a set of 3 (fronts and one rear). These are the same ones as the Raptor comes with :) Whats price on this set (and are they only in black?) Ford # BC3Z2613300AA thanks!

    Shock Porn - Kings landed today

    I crawled under the truck again this afternoon, to double check the rears and fronts and make sure everything was still good to go. I noticed one of the resi's in the rear getting too close to the frame, so I loosened the hose clamps holding the resi's on the shock body and slid the resi around...

    Shock Porn - Kings landed today

    yep, I've been in close contact with a VP at King (almost daily) and he's sending me out some replacement stickers, lol. I do want to clarify a few things really quick. 1) As they sit now and in these pics, I have a 1.5" level on the front. I have about 4 inches of travel before my bumpstops...

    Shock Porn - Kings landed today

    Sorry for the delay, I had a few setbacks with King. Long story short, the rubbing (see pics) was largely due to the shocks being labeled wrong (they were labeled driver/passenger), and after a few conversations with King, they decided that there is no "right way" to just try em until they fit...

    Shock Porn - Kings landed today

    I had the rears on this weekend on my property, and when I hit bumps faster than normal (30-50mph) on 10 mph roads, it absorbed the bumps like my Raptor. You can haul ass. The fronts are adjusted a bit soft for me, kinda swaying a bit. I didn't have time to play with them tonight, I'll tune em...

    Shock Porn - Kings landed today

    I got the ReadyLift 1.5" today and had some time to get on the lift and knock it out. I started about 5, and by 6:20 or so, it was all done, wheels back on truck. I pulled the wheels, unbolted the shocks, disconnected the lower end link bolt and the axle dropped enough to pull the spring out...

    Shock Porn - Kings landed today

    Sorry for the delay, King has been closed for like 5 straight days and finally decided to join the rest of the world today and open their doors. After a call to King, my suspicions were confirmed, and they shipped the fronts made for a lifted/leveled truck (1.5-2.0"). King also confirmed that...
