ok so i was at our local truck repair shop just talkin with the owner bout our rigs. saw a truck in there that was SICK!! anyway it had a billet grille on it but instead of the ford emblem in the middle, it had the international diamond emblem in the middle. ive looked everywere for them but i cant find it haha so does anyone know where to find them at? or is it sumthing custome you have to get done?

 

Most of us just got a billet grille insert and then put the International diamond in the middle since the grille doesn't have anything there. I have the International emblems if you need one.

 

so you just buy the regular grille and put the diamond on? how do you do that

 

like that one but ona billet grille

 

Peel and stick. That simple. Providing you have a billet grill

 

Here is the one several of us have bought. Great quality and a good price. You do have to cut your grille, though it isn't hard.

Here is it installed with the emblem.

 

He comes my buzz-kill....

I'm a FORD nut, not an International fan. I would NEVER replace my Blue Oval!! I'd add an Orange Diamond somewhere that made sense, but not there.

Let the beatings begin!!

 

Here's what mine looks like with the stock grill.
On the Dyno again. haha

 

Neal- Are your front tires kicked out or are my eyes getting worse?

 

That is EXACTLY what I was thinking looking at that picture. Heck I think I took it and looked at it a few times and thats the first time I have noticed it.

 

When you're on the dyno, they strap/chain your truck down REALLY tight. Probably just the way it's strapped down.

 

Or the ball joints in his TTB have given up the ghost.

 

Its strapped all in the back it shouldn't cause the front to spread out like that?

 

It is not the ball joints. It is the TTB design. Aint that such a great idea. Yeah right.
I think what makes it the worse is the spring bushings are really worn out bad.

Got a D60 ready to put in to fix that problem. Still looking for some "V" codes to throw on there at the same time. She will get her stance back real soon.

Thanks for noticing that. LOL

 

Actually I lowered the front end down some just to compensate for the raw power out the back end that way when she tries to climb off that dyno she sits nice and level while doing it.

Also helps to keep from pulling the front wheels off the ground at red lights. LOL
