Correct. 2" and 3". No 4"kits

 

Pylepatterson... Your truck pics look like they are from a brochure ad.. Nice ones for sure.

and now......

my 1995 CC PSD Dually. Bought it 5 years ago with 215,000 on it all stock. Now it has 260,000 on it still just like when I bought it except the window tint and rear slider window. Rudy's escape hatch to the camper while on long cruises.

A few weeks ago doing what it does best.. Hauling home Jeeps.



A couple of years ago. I still have that topper. It is done up inside with a bed and tons of storage.


Why the topper is off right now.. Work time...


This is the trailer on back of it in the above pic..


Best of all it makes an excellent vacation rig.. Objects in mirror are much larger than they appear.....


Great for camping. This is in Feb 20 degrees out for a high temp.


This is last October at Shades State Park in IN. Great place..


The house from Napoleon Dynamite movie.. Yeah I can geek out like that when out ramblin America's roadways.


My little boy and co-pilot... Rudy, he was looking cool for the ladies in Gunnison,CO last year.



any questions?????

 

I have a question, well lots of them actually .

My truck is a 1995, so does it have the wiring in it already to add power mirrors?

Where does the switch button locate for them?

I can get a set of power mirrors but would need the switches for them and whatever else it takes. The mirrors only have the pigtails on them.

Any pics would be nice.

 

I personally have never heard of a body lift more than 3 inches, but I have seen somebody stack together a 3 inch and 1 inch body lift. I agree that you should go to suspension, but I know you have to work with what you got. Look forward to progress

 

I ran across the pictures of my old crew.

 

my 91 custom.


2wd 3..5 open rear end, swapped to zf5, 7.3 idi N/A. Hate the open rear end for starting out in snow, but man the long wheel base is great once your moving. So stable through any snow!

going D60, 4" lift using RSK, 4.10s, 35" or 37 militarys on hummer beadlocks, turbo, dually rear end (running only outer singles) with LSD, divorced np205, hydroboost, bedlined floor. making it RUST PROOF!.

 

Mine will not go in the snow at all.. I'm running Kuhmo highway tires, could that be the reason ? Is Michelin tires alot better? They will need replaced before this winter so I'm hunting for tires now.

 

Tread design would be more important than brand for snow traction.

Are you 4x4?

 

highway treads so iim assuming theyres no perpendicular grooves to the road, only parallel? If so definitly bad in the snow. Take a llook at blizzaks for example, tons of perpendicular siping, this gives the tire alot of "teeth" which grab and make little ridges in the snow to gain traction. Nothing sticks to snow better than snow itself.

 

HOOT thats a nice rig you got. Im a bit jealous your usin your truck for the very reason I bought mine.
Not a pic of my truck but will become a part of soon enough

A 1.0 A/R housing, WW2 and rebuild kit with 360* thrust bearing

 

i lowered mine

 

Holy Moses! That is one SWEET ride!!!

That is a nice truck. What front bumper is that.

Those caddy lights look awesome.

 

Custom one off.
I took two bumpers ,cut and spliced them.
widened it three inchs and added two to height. Those are 8" hella lights .
The grill is also custom. Original outer shell, and center bar is part aerostar part Taurus.

 

My truck is a two wheel drive dually.. Hillbilly four wheel drive. .
I run blizzaks on my Tbird on all four corners and they do amazing stuff in snow and ice. Never thought of putting them on the F350. That should definitely help it if the weight doesn't kill it.
As far as regular street tires for summer use goes I may stick with the Kuhmo's. They definitely have been a very nice tire the last 45,000 miles. Only bad wear is where I got bad about getting it realigned and almost destroyed 2 of them. They are the inside duals now. I have to give a big thumbs up for the crew at Tire Discounters for the excellent work over the last 5 years. They got me out the door for about $150 a tire and I have never had to pay for any full rotations balancing or alignments since. I thought for sure they would charge me something for breaking them off the rims to properly rotate the rear duals. It has all been free!!!!!

I've been shopping for an exhaust the last two nights and come to this question. Is Banks worth the steeper price? Or one of the others just as good? I'd like to have something on there before the next trip which is coming very soon.
