    08 Tailgate Without The Step?

    I have no use for mine. The only time the step has been pulled out is when i am showing somebody that has asked about it. I am young enough that i can just jump in the bed. The only real feature that has tickled my pickle is the back up camera.

    Question 2008 F250 wheel & tire upgrade

    subscribing... I am about to upgrade my rims and was wondering about the TPMS too. Same lug nuts used? yeah, i dont see why they wouldn't work. Unless you are asking about the rim lug patter/bolt pattern. Then that is also the same if you are sticking with 2008 style rims. I believe they...

    What the hell is up with Superlift?!

    Not to get OT but what base? I am at Camp Sather (BIAP). and in case you don't have the number, you can dial 94-809-463-3376, wait for tone, then a 1-800# from a DSN phone. I just skimmed through the thread so it may not help you any. I know your pain, i have been working out of country...

    Question on Trucks

    I sold my 03 6.0L dually 2wd for my 08. The dually was pretty cumbersome to drive around in urban areas, and was ultimately the reason why I went with a SRW 4x4 and haven't looked back. If you don't need the dually then don't get it. The decreased fuel economy due to the lower final drive...

    note PSA...May 11th

    My mom told me not to get anything because it was a waste of money, the flowers just die anyway. So I bought silk flowers and sent them to her; the note says "My love for you, like these flowers, will never die" :)

    Tow Haul Flashing (Torq-Shift 5r110)

    I dont think the sending unit is that expensive. You know about contacting Steve on SVTP to get the part at cost +10%. Not sure how much this is affecting your trucks drivability. -Mike

    Tow Haul Flashing (Torq-Shift 5r110)

    I think it is ussually the temp sender in the trans. Mine was a different problem (with different symptoms) where the dealer had to replace the wiring harness and the sender. They blamed it on the wiring harness and i told them that i thought it was the sender only becuase of other...
