[QUOTE="O2ShootTheJ, post: 776375, member: 580"] So after month's of searching, I found a truck I liked and took the plunge. Long story short the 2007 f250 with 133,000 was down on power 5 hours into the 6 hour trip. Made it home and popped the hood to see this [ATTACH=full]116458[/ATTACH] Went inside, ticked off and exhausted from 9 hours worth of public bus rides and then a 6 hour drive back. Came out the next day and investigated further, found this. [ATTACH=full]116459[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]116460[/ATTACH] Diesel in the coolant. Oil looked/smelled fine, so at this point we're assuming it's cracked heads. Truck is currently at Stroker's Unlimited hopefully they will start the tear down early next week and can keep us updated with pictures. Me being my impatient self, I dropped way too much money on this truck before I even owned it in accessories, and then when it blew it really put a hurting on my wallet. But here are the plans for the truck (including the many parts sitting in my closet/garage waiting to go on once it runs again) Motor: -ARP studs -OEM Gaskets -EGR Delete -Coolant Filter -Oil Bypass -CCV reroute -Heads off a 06 w/ 83k miles -MBRP 5" axle dump exhaust -Livewire TS --> undecided on whose tunes Cosmetic: -Recon Tails, 3rd brake, and mirror lights -Harley headlights with clear reflectors -Tint front windows to match, want to do 50% on windshield but probably wont -Remove steps and give to my pops for his truck -Ditch the vent guards? Functional but kind of an eye sore -FX4 sticker delete Audio: -Dnx 890HD w/ back up camera -2 Sundown SD-8 subs in supercrew sound box (for EC, hope it works) -1200.1 audioque amp Suspension from PMF: -Icon 2.5" dual rate coils -Adjustable track bar -Bilstein 5160 shocks X4 -Dual S/S kit -4" blocks -20x12 Gear Alloy 726MB -305/55/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers Here's a few pictures of how she is starting out (blue tape was for the trip home to prevent rock chips, bottom was already chipped so I didn't bother with it). Should be a fun journey from start to finish. If anyone has any input/advice don't hesitate to offer it up!
