which one did you install? stock or hellwig?

 

I put the go pedal to the floor several times...
And loved every minute of it

 

I went OEM primarily because the dealership gave me a HUGE discount on all my parts, otherwise, I would have went with the Hellwig.

 

Mine carried me 10 hours today.
I am tired, truck could keep going as always.

 

Just curious, has your Job 1 been trouble free? I had zero issues with mine, I traded up because I needed more room.

 

Good for you for having the guts to do the deletes right away haha. I was on the fence for quite a long time before finally doing it. Actually I had saved up for expensive repairs in case this turned out like my 6.0L but it hasn't yet, so I put the funds towards mods.

 

Not trouble free but everything has been covered by Ford and nothing major.

I had transmission shift issues but that was mostly fixed after a long time and trial and error (I'll spare you the long story) by Ford.
The shifting problems were bad.
Still a few lingering issues but nothing like the first 30,000 miles.

Front differential started leaking, they fixed that.

Front driver mirror gave up, ESP warranty replaced that.

Turbo stopped working driving down the highway.
Trucks first tow truck experience.
They fixed that but turned out the PCM disabled the turbo and it didn't have a hardware failure.

That's all I can think of for now. The engine has been flawless and no fuel system issues.
I think the key is the dealer.
Some people have horrible experiences with simple issues so I guess I have been lucky.

 

I have a great Ford service dealer here, it makes a huge difference ........

 

A good dealer makes all the difference in the world. And that is true of any make of vehicle or motorcycle.

 

Remember, the "Horror" stories we hear about our trucks from time to time are similar to grains of sand on a Large beach, theres always going to be bad ones anyway, you get my point.

 

Lube, Oil, & Filter and about 2 gallons of DEF. Rotella T6 with a Motorcraft filter.

 

I've got 660 miles to get home dragging a 15k trailer. Combo weighs 26,600, great ride and power, 9.8 mpg.....

 

Almost home, Travel safely.

 

I took mine in for oil change at dealer - moving too fast to do it myself...

It worked out great though - was talking to service manager & shop foreman and they called me to pay bill & I said that I had to go grab a jug of DEF to take to the ranch --- the shop foreman told me to follow him -

He went to the shop grabbed a 5gal box and put it in the bed of my truck. When he couldn't find a Ford fill tube to give me - So, he went and grabbed a half full jug that they used in the shop - filled my DEF tank to the brim and gave me the fill tube off that jug..

So - thanks to my great service dept. the 6.7 got the oil/filter change, topped off the DEF tank, 2 jugs (5 gal) of DEF, and a fill tube - all for the cost of the oil change... Plus got a $10 rebate from FordOwner.com also....

 

That is good customer service.
