More air in and more air out will help just about any engine. Your truck won't be fast by any means, but it will improve the performance just a little.

Not very much alone at all. Think about an intake as well as the exhaust.

Sweet, I want to see and hear Mr. & Mrs. Smith's reactions to a WOT 347 burn down the street!! F that 60% stuff! :p:

Unfortunately the 4cyl with a muffler doesn't get lower it just get's louder. It will help performance like for any other engine though.

So, just how soon is the tune? :)

:)

I've had mine just over 40*.

Time for a build up thread for the SAS. :)

YES!! Extended Ford vans UNITE!

I would say it depends on the use the truck will get. If you plan to off-road it and leave it stock, then yes it's worth it. If you plan to just drive it around town, or go completly custom lift and really beat on it, then IMO all the extras aren't worth the money up front.

Again, please read what I wrote... I am a moderator, and I was replying to your posts in this thread. [/hijack]

First of all, I said, "I'm guessing..." and wasn't accusing the tranny guy of anything. Second of all, after being on this site for over a year and asking all kinds of questions about lifts, gears, tires and costs, went to a guy and said you shouldn't go lower than 4.10 for 35s and the price is...

I'd like a couple shots of the roof, please.

Uhh... what?

Toast it?

I knew someone was going to say this and it depends on the stock gears, but either way this is bad advice. It's not the gears that are getting hurt, it's the already weak trans that heats up to turn the bigger tires... I'm still curious what your budget is?

You're right, the shackles definitely lowered it.

I'm guessing that since he's a tranny shop, he doesn't want you to regear so you'll F up your tranny so he can charge you up the ass to fix that too. I'd stop going to your buddy's shop.

I'm out. :(

The grass does look nice, though.

Yes, yes I did.

Come to SoCal, they are all over the place.

Well there you go, you just listed what you should do. :) To your list add: 1. wheels with 3.75 backspacing (for clearance issues) 2. 4.56 gears, front and rear (will be fine on the road and even better in the dirt) 3. lockers front and rear (obvious reasons) and you'll be able to go just...

If you really want answers, you need to give more info to start with. What size tires do you want to run, what is your budget, is it 2wd, 4wd, etc...

From Photobucket use the [img] tagged one.

As long as you resized them, I think you should be able to "attach" them. You'll see the option after you hit post reply just under the area where you type. Or use photobucket or some other hosting site. Or you could become elite and be able to upload pics to your user gallery.

The doors are different, just like any other 4dr vs. 2dr vehicle.

can you just leave the bii in zukman's driveway and snake the 250? :D

Looks good man! I hope I can make it to Pismo so I can check it out.

Yes!! Now we can have a DD/tow rig party. Let's shoot for the beginning of next month... ;)

Looks good enough for campin'. :) Was the window another $13 at the JY?

Sweet Steve. i can't wait for my 35s to wear out.

I think a custom pack is your only option now. Otherwise it's going to be too stiff. Unless...(not the best solution by any means :p:) you put in another leaf and build a custom rear bumper with tire carrier. The leaf will lift the rear and the bumper and tire will be heavy enough to smooth...

Yeah, that's where we all stopped once we heard that steve rolled.

One more.
