    What comfort upgrades have you done?

    I installed and wired the rear radio controls, power port and cup holder extension from an Excursion center console to that of my F-350 King Ranch. In addition, I installed and built a mounting bracket just inside the center console for my I-Pod, using a P.I.E. unit. Now, rear seat...

    I'm Really On The Fence With This 06E17

    The truck runs fine the way it is, even though I had the EGR valve replaced late last year. I don't want to jeopardize towing from the way it is now - for possibly worse performance with the flash. On the other hand, I know the EGR will foul eventually again - then what? What do you...

    Happy Easter

    Good pics guys! Wish I still had small kids sometimes. It's been raining here, so no outside activities today (other then oiling up my truck seats). My daughter came up from Coos Bay for the weekend so spent a little time with her.

    PIE adaptor

    Flopster. If you go to my link below for Webshots, I have a step by step installation with notes for when I installed my PIE for my I-Pod installation. I also did a section on there for hiding the I-Pod and used a remote on the shifter for the I-Pod operation.

    burlwood dash kits?

    AAA Exoticwood also is a supplier to dealerships - and are also relabeled, such as Vaneerz, Wow-Trim and several others. They are high quality and whether a flat dash kit or molded, the polyurethane is seamless and well rounded on the ends and corners. Guess it all depends on which style...

    burlwood dash kits?

    I just found the same polyurethane burl for the overhead console. Also got the piece for the rear Excursion cup holder extention.

    burlwood dash kits?

    I had one of those in my 01 and it looked good, but was a pain to put in. On my 04 King Ranch, I went with a dash kit (specifically for the KR) from Veneerz. Actually, the kit is made by AAA Exotic Woods. One other sell sight for them is WOW Trims. I have had mine in for over 2 years and...

    Aux. Back up lights

    I have been using White Night backup lights from G.O.S. Racing. These attach to the trailer receiver and have worked great for just about 3 years. One thing about a dually, is it's real hard to see behind you when it's dark. My driveway slopes sharply to the street for about 60 feet. I can...

    KING RANCH OWNERS - I called King Ranch -

    I guess I will have to get me some of that. Frankly, I don't know what to use, or not use. I've used Lexol, but, even I'm not happy with the results. I love the seats. I just want to find the right product to use.

    Frigging hoodlums

    As bad as the "punks" are, sometimes they grow up and turn into decent people. Right after I got hired at the Sheriff's Office - about 8 years ago, a 16 year old punk stole the metal hereon bird out of our 8 foot metal bird sculpture that was in the corner of our front yard. It would have...

    I Hid My I-Pod and now use a Remote

    About six months ago I hard wired my I-Pod to the truck 6-CD radio and rear seat radio controls. It was a pain to either have to cover the I-Pod which used a Belkin cup holder, or have to disconnect it and hide it. Yesterday I had an idea. Went to Home Depot and bought a 1" wide piece of...

    Roll-N-Lock bed cover?

    I can vouch for the durability and effectiveness of the Retrax. I have had mine for just over 4 years now (had it on my 01 and took it to my 04). Looks as good (and more importantly - junctions just as well) as the day I installed it. It clamps onto the side rails with 6 clamps, so it's...

    Why are psd so much louder the the duramax

    Jeeze! I EXPECT and Want it to sound like a Diesel - not like a pathetic gasser (or a Durajap or Kummings - which would be just as bad.) I just dab a bit of #2 behind my ears and watch the girls go wild!!!

    Cup Holder Broke

    Besides the two horizontal screws that are visible when you pull out the cupholder, get on your back on the passenger side and look up toward the ceiling (with the cupholder pulled out). You will see two more bolt type screws up in two slots. When you take a socket and ratchet to those, it...

    Turbo Timer

    My D.E.I. Python XP811 alarm system has the remote start and turbo timer which does the same. What system do you have?

    Looking at new SD, some equipment questions >

    I always thought it was odd that body side moldings are not an option with a dually. I had to add the Ford factory moldings to mine. What? People don't open their car doors into a dually????
