Powerstroke214's build thread

Powerstroke214 · Oct 30, 2013

Well, I WAS excited that my PSA sticker was in, and finally on my truck

and then I looked at my exhaust…

I think it will be getting replaced in the near future with a 5" that will be welded once in place.

Anyone want a slightly used MBRP 4" TBE…

If you really wanna get rid of it just text me and I have a buddy that might buy it.

I thought you had an exhaust? Maybe you just straight piped it? Needs moar bigger exhaust pipe. Best part about 5" is it doesn't need a tip

It's a 4" that was cheap(ish), because I was cheap and impatient :doh: I'll wait til I get a little more cash then get a 5" and sell this one to Matt's friend if he still wants it.

I don't know why I got it, don't like 4" or the way MBRP exits...

Strange.. I have installed a few Mbrp kits and never had one exit at a angle like your picture or come loose.

I can make mine look like that if I loosen the nearest exhaust clamp. Lay under the truck and loosen the nearest exhaust clamp and have a buddy try and pull it up

It's like the over axle pipe wants to rotate toward the frame rail, which points the tail pipe downward like that. We have a truck at work w/ the same "issue"

The tip is in…no homo :lookaround:

Level goes on tomorrow, and new shoes Sunday! Waiting on tunes from Matt.
Probably buy gauges or a CTS when my Livewire sells then save money for studs 'n' stuff

Cheap under spring setup, I'll check today, I'm getting it done through work, so it's whatever my boss uses.

Pickup the truck tomorrow after class, hopefully it doesn't have too much of a squat.
Got my tunes from Matt, can't wait to try them out!

I have a 4 inch block kit that is for a 6.4 but it worked on my old 6.7 so I figure it will probably work on a 6.0. Just text me and let me know if your interested and we can work something out.

Yezir! Can't wait til…I don't know, next week or so, when hopefully I'll have my blocks on, tires remounted(if I decide to keep the stocker wheels) and the Moto Metals up for sale…

When are you doing your susp? Still going w/ the Carli?

12stroker · Nov 6, 2013

I am going with icon and ouo traction blocks. I probably won't do my suspension until jan or dec. Because I might be relocating soon for work I have been apply to jobs closer to home.

Strokin&Smokin · Nov 6, 2013

Why'd you change your mind on the Carli?
