I have one. But probably not worth paying for the cost + shipping vs the cost of finding a local one.

Shipping will kill me. I appreciate it though!

Thanks! It'll take a while, but I think it will come out great.

Lol, sounds good James. I need to take a ride in your truck to see how I like that s467 wth those 350/200s. Seems like a fun truck.

So, my truck hasn't had the temp working in the overhead display. Shows -40 which I know means open circuit.

Anyone knows where the temp sensor is on the front of these trucks?

It's behind the grille clipped to the header panel on the drivers side, right below where people cut a hole for more air flow

Mine doesn't have that. Guess i need to find the wiring and install one. Being it's an E99 I wonder if they installed them there.

Did it ever read the temp? Might be a truck package thing??

No sir, that was the dually. This used to have 250/100s. And will be getting some again. Still never got a ride in a 425hp 7.3?

Did a little bit of work this weekend

Cleaned up the front end while installing the winch. To fit the winch you either removed the bumper or removed the header panel.

After

Winch will hopefully be installed tomorrow.

Sold it to my buddy who bought the dually, had his turbo go out on a camping trip we did. I ran back home, grabbed the turbo and installed it up there. Fun trip lol.

If push comes to shove I might go 38r again. I really liked my truck with 250/100s and the E99 turbo. Thing just worked great on detuned tuning. Was a bit quicker then the dually, and that baby turbo lit fast. I'm surprised it lasted this long.

No not yet. I think that power will keep me happy and still tow a fifth wheel or anything else once in a blue moon. Keep it simple and reliable.
