Sounds like there's more than meets the eye, here. To indicate that a shackle would induce 700% more rear sag makes no sense to me. The shackle effectively does one thing - eliminates the bind of the factory vulcanized material allowing for a more direct engagement of the spring. To see how your...
Thank you - I love my truck and have no plans to off it. The 23MY would've really needed to "WOW" me to get me to spend $10K more for the same truck and, like seemingly everyone else, i am not a huge fan of the front end. The 20-22 is the best front end Ford's made since the 05-07 in my opinion...
This one is for Sage Carli. The gray 23 XLT is a Carli-Owned truck, this 23 Lariat is Sage's Personal (finally upgraded from his 2017 with 200K miles on it) and I'm sticking with my 22MY!
Well, she's here! Over to SDI to have them plug into the "HO" and confirm it reads the same as our 23MY XLT, then off for ceramic coat, then sits until we finish our 5.5" Radius Arm Drops for the 23! These seats are a HUGE upgrade - interior is beautiful in these rigs.
First impressions of...
The struggle is showing the difference. On a washboard road, you're not going to visibly see anything and they'll all ride awesome in that situation. The Backcountry with full leaf springs and torsion sway bar (which is what this truck has on it) is an insane improvement on the small stuff...
I have yet to dig into the factory made changes that don't directly affect what we're doing but i'll get there! Right now, it's at SDI checking E-Venture compatibility.
This seems to have more rake. We installed our 08-22 leaf springs and the rear is a couple inches high. We need to investigate...
Well, here she is. We wanted to get a jump start on the 2023 Platform so we snagged the first 2023MY that landed at a local dealership. It's an XLT Powerstroke FX4.
We installed our 3.5" Backcountry, Torsion Sway Bar, Full Progressive Leaf Springs, & High Mount Steering Stabilizer. This...
Uncanny timing... Just swapped mine last night. I will only ever Run S&B. I have them on both trucks, both dry filters. I played with the wet filters and they work great BUT, i frequent dusty trails and off-road escapades - i don't want to pull my filter after every trip to clean and reoil it...
99.9% of our customers WILL NOT use their truck hard enough to justify these shocks; that's the honest truth. For the .01%, no other shock will do. If you have the E-Venture and haven't wished you had more shock yet, no reason to upgrade. That said, i stand behind the purchase of a 23MY and...
