I'm 37 . I really hate the whole getting old thing . I guess it beats the alternative . The funny thing is I feel no different than I did at 18 . I don't act any different either :lmao .
I just put stacks on my truck . Took a few pics . I love the look and the sound of them . I had a hard time cutting the hole in the bed . I stood in the bed for 20 mins. just holding my hole saw and trying to decide , drill the hole or don't ..... then finally said f it . So what do ya all think ?
Here is what I was told by a Ford engineer on another site . He said the shift on the fly (auto pos.) is for quik activation of the 4wd system . Like when you are possibly not expecting to need it and suddenly you do . Like said before just driving along and suddenly hitting a slippery section...
By looking at his sig it looks like a done deal . Anyway the 06 and 07 6.0 have less recall and warranty issues than any other year . They had most of the issues worked out by then .
I have been very busy
New front wheel bearing assemblies , ball joints and 2 new front tires because I drove it about a month on the bad ball joints an ruined them . (actually a couple of weeks ago)
Today
All new shocks and steering stabilizer
06 Harley Grill

Yea . They will fit . I have a set you can have if you want to pay the shipping . They are stockers out of a 99 . I have a chrome grill too . Just pay shipping .
Here are the headlights and grill
By the way here it is now

My truck has always had to get to the halfway point on the temp gauge . If I am just cruising with no load (this is when air temp is below 50 deg . ) I have owned it since 33k miles , 65k now . My 2000 was about the same . Had it about 100k miles . When it's a little warmer out it opens up earlier .
The is the ebpv being close to help warm the oil . You are correct the truck will be down on power until warm because the exhaust is half closed off . Let it warm up this is a Diesel , they don't like being cold . :D
Opps , didn't even read Big Joe's post . But there you go .
Modding your truck with any ones tuner could cause issues . It most likely will not but allot of that depends on you . Definitely get some gauges , egt , trans temp , boost at least . These guys that do the tuning spend a ton of time getting them right . You would most likely be fine but like...
