    sas shackles and hanger question

    OK so I'm getting everything ready on my 4th of Jul shutdown for a sas. My observation is almost everyone with leafs puts the shackles and hangers on the outside of the frame. Is it possible to keep the springs parallel with the frame like the rear.does it depend on the axle? I've got a d44...

    sct Excalibur 2 question

    OK guys. Thought I'd ask the pros. I ran across an Sct Excalibur 2 programmer for a Ford and was wondering if its used on one vehicle if it can be used on another. I know the hypertechs can only be used to program one vehicle. Is it the same for Sct? I have a 99 5.0. Any help is good help. Oh...

    99 explorer to c6 or c4?

    so does anyone have any idea how one would go with swapping a c4 or c6 in a 5.0 ex? i have seen where some people just trick the ecu into thinking the trans is in neutral so it doesnt throw codes but i have not really found a write up on it. thanks in advance guys. learned so much here already.

    My turbocharged 2000 5.0 AWD....

    My turbocharged 2000 5.0 AWD....

    Yeah your probably right. I won't call Henson tuning for an sct tuner or I probably wont go to si performance and have it dyno tuned because I'm using electrical conduit. Are you a detective? Nice assumption there Ryan

    My turbocharged 2000 5.0 AWD....

    Everything really. I'm by no means a rich man. So the Turbo will be a used hx35 and all the couplers will be new. As well as the oil return pump. I said electrical conduit because of the galvanizing. May last longer than exhaust tubing. That's the only key point to use the conduit.

    My turbocharged 2000 5.0 AWD....

    So I knw this is an old thread but I didn't want to open. A new thread for one simple question. I was wondering if one could use electrical conduit which is galvanized instead of exhaust tube as the charge pipe leaving the Turbo to the intake
