I'm not a fan of the 11+ bumper on the 04-. Hell, I don't even like it on the trucks they are designed for.
What have you done to your powerstroke today?

I'm not sure how I feel on the 11+ front bumper. It may look better in person on the 04 body trucks. But if I swap it will be for a 05 bumper an Harley grill with Harley headlights. Just not sure if I can give up the metal bumper up top it's nice to be able to stand on it when doing something.

148k km so 92.5k miles for you guys south of the border. I don't know the hours off hand. It sounds like it's either a complete fluke or the previous owner was lacking on maintenance.

100k kms up here, guess the harsh cold and maple syrup fuel additive kill longevity for us.

Yup. Maybe I'll get a five liter and sell the 6.7 for parts, at this point I don't know. My university went on strike forcing some of my exams back to last week, and some before Christmas. I am so ridiculously burnt out after spending a month and a half straight studying for finals (I didn't get much of a Christmas break) and then getting four days to decompress only to then have my oil filter to concrete itself onto my truck when I changed the oil causing me to have to zip cut some of the seal and then 50 miles on the new oil bang, engine. and now I'm back in classes, and trying to study for my class one. How I have hair left I dunno man.

Ordered ptm door handles, ptm upper bumper cover, and 08 power heated mirrors with the turn signal and ptm top caps and the factory tailgate handle with camera for the 12' tailgate on 05, and an emblem from custom truck solutions, and a set of led headlights. my 6.4 and 6.0 will be twins by next week. Ordered a new tailgate lock cylinder too so i can lock my tailgate once the camera is in too! Almost forgot about the new windshield it's getting next week with 35% covering the entire thing. It's amazing what a little paint will do to an old truck!

^ Nice find.
Picked up the 6 leaker from my mechanic after having another damn torque converter put in it.

Finally replaced my door lock actuators, I have keyless entry now. Woohoo!
Changed the oil, switched to LE 8854 5w-40, drained the coolant, replaced the radiator hose that connects to the water pump, seems to have fixed the coolant leak, attempted to install my HSM fuel filter kit, apparently they don't work with Midwest Piping kits, but MPD makes a bracket that hangs off the firewall, so that situation will be remidied soon

Dropped the trans pan and drained whatever came out. Cleaned the magnet(shocked how little there is, trans is doing GREAT, trans oil had about 14k) .Topped off with LE trans oil.
Transfer case oil changed (went to LE oil)
Power-steering fluid changed (went to LE oil)
Rear diff cover removed and oil changed I had ford diff oil I had to get rid of. Next change will be LE oil.
Coolant drained and refilled with fresh ford Orange
Fuel filters changed
Air filter cleaned and oiled
Tomorrow morning if time permits, I need to do the rear brake pads. They're almost at zero.
