Very nice, I put Vertex res coilovers on the front off my Chevy and Vertex res on my rears, and they worked well. My son has the truck now, and my only regrets, they can’t be rebuilt.

How has the Vertex treated you? Thoughts on ride quality?
Honestly the Vertex has been just fine. Again I live in GA and mostly ride rough farm roads, go through ditches and old logging roads. No baha type driving. I tow a 10,000 lbs tractor a good bit back and forth from AL to Ga and with the air bags it does great.
Thanks for the update and real feedback.
Purchased 5 of these to run on my 2026 F250 Tremor stock suspension. Wheels are 17x9 +18. I should be able to run 37x13.5x17 with minimal rubbing correct?

13.50’s might rub the sway bar at full lock and you might have to trim the small plastic piece on the bottom rear of the wheel well. You’ll be fine. Send it.View attachment 263914

Looking good brother! How's the transmission temp been doing?Still in love with the Echos+ 37" Falken A/T4W combo. Just finished my 3rd mountain towing trip and the platform feels much more stable than the stock Duracraps ever did. Looks a helluva lot better too

Better. This last trip, which included the Eisenhower and Rabbit Ears passes in 85 degree temps, hit a peak of 232 degrees. Previously, on the same route, I hit 247 if I recall. But my truck will also hit 215-220 just cruising around in high temps without a trailer, so the increase seems reasonable. I wonder what kind of difference I might see if I go to one of the larger, aftermarket pans?

The transmission has a factory thermostatic bypass valve that purposely restricts flow to the cooler until the fluid reaches about 210°F. An aftermarket deep pan (like a Mag-Hytec or PPE) will add extra fluid capacity—which means it takes longer to heat up—but that factory thermostat will still force the transmission to reach its 210°+ baseline.
If you actually want to see lower temperatures, the real fix is a Thermal Bypass Valve (companies like PPE make them). This replaces the factory thermostat to allow full-time flow to the transmission cooler right from the start, which can drop your baseline operating temps by up to 35°F. A deep pan is still an awesome upgrade for the extra fluid capacity, cooling fins, and the drain plug, but the bypass valve is what actually moves the needle on temperature.

Awesome information, thanks buddy! I guess as long as everything works.... I just hate seeing temps in the 240s. It seems like Ford could choose to lower the temp setting on the bypass valve, but they must feel it is fine to let it run as hot as it does.The transmission has a factory thermostatic bypass valve that purposely restricts flow to the cooler until the fluid reaches about 210°F.

You're welcome brother! For $80 and 15 minutes to install, it's a no-brainer.

Can only contribute to wheels, sorry about stock suspension and tires. Innov8 G900's 18x9 +12, smooth lip, satin black with Apex RPV's. New rubber, spare, full Carli setup planned for next year.
