See..this is where you start to scare me. I'm not afraid of nuts and bolts, I've torn apart several engines and transmissions, but I'm a hack...
Vano - I'll happily take advantage of your research if you don't mind. A few questions: 1) Do you know if altitude plays a major role with the...
PS - I'm assuming the TC still wouldn't mask the phaser tick.. Has anyone figured out a permanent solution for this? It sucks to have a mean...
Thanks for the responses guys. @CountryBoy - thank man. It's been a while in the making. @Darth - I'm on the same page man. We've worked...
Aren't the Turbos even more than an SC? It seems like most the SC kits are bolt-on-easy so I could install myself and then take it to a dyno for...
So.. I've been drooling over the 2011 Raptors with the 6.2L, but nearly 45K for a decently equipped model is steep. My biggest complaints with my...
Nice.. I'm getting too old for MX. I've accrued enough injuries from DH racing and seeing what my friends have done to their bodies racing moto...
Used to. Still do an occasional race but ride more just for fun these days and get in a little more trail riding and DJ than pure DH. Thinking...
Here's a pic that shows it in action on a friends truck. [IMG]
No real trick. Just set them in like the pic. It works most securely with downhill bikes that have a dual crown that limits the front wheel turn...
Thanks. The Dakine pad is for hauling bikes without scratching the bike or truck. It works great for that, but I don't use it for much else....
Maybe it's a typo of "stock shocks"?.. not sure how that would work. You could use a spacer in front instead of swapping to the fabtech monotubes...
yeah.. I just need to see how worn my current rotors are and then make cost/value decisions. It would be nice to hear from any current F150 SSBC...
Heck.. the SSBC are a deal.. I could go the Brembo route and sink 1/5 the value of the whole truck into front brakes:...
Looks like I could get the setup without rotors for $900 through Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/SSBC-A193-Change-Tri-Power-Caliper/dp/B001UFU2TI/...
oh yeah.. I found the cracks when changing the rear pads so I changed out the rear calipers with OEM remans. I'm half expecting to find similar...
Thanks, Vano. I'll checked that site but only saw an option for 2wd models. When the big tires went on I upgraded to slotted rotors and Hawk...
Anyone know of, or have experience with upgrading their F-150 calipers? It's time to change out my front brakes and with 37's and a lot of...
Thanks, yz. Westtn - I think you have that thing maxed out. I've never gotten my tire up into the wheelwell.
Thanks for the comments folks. Damn Riv. That truck looks ready to rumble.
