    powerstrokeshop.com rules

    Ben at powerstrokeshop helped me out this week and he went above and beyond to do it. He made sure I got the things I needed in the time I needed them in. I just wanted to brag on them a bit.

    Hitch question

    I have a quick question for the experts here. My truck has ranchhand bumpers front and back and a 4" lift. The RH rear is a 10" drop bumper with a 1k tongue and 10k trailer rating. The problem is that with the lift, there is little chance of actually getting a trailer on the ball. The...

    Notes from my CCV mod

    Well, I got ambitious and did my CCV mod today. I didn't take pictures since it was dark out. I learned that if you plan on turning the CCV around on the VC, you will need some pookie to hold O-rings in place while you put it back on, and that if you are lucky like me, one will be crushed from...
