Thumbs up 7.3L DIY Mod Handbook

I am thinking about composing a 7.3L DIY Mod Handbook that will basically provide pictures and instructions and experiences for all of the mods that can be done DIY versus buying a kit.

I would really appreciate any contributions yall would like to make (ie photos, write ups, instructions, experiences)

All information and pictures would be dually noted and completely cited in the book.

Is there any interest in something like this?
I would make it available in pdf format and update it as needed.
Of course it would be free to whom ever wanted a copy.

Post links to write ups, photo's, threads, and ideas below.



WB

You can find a lot of the DIY mods with writeups or pics and stuff here:
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/s...d.php?t=478168

Wouldn't hurt to pull the writeups and links from there to start with.

Also there is a thread in the Superduty section called the Superduty Tech Folder that is stickied, and may have a few more writeups/links you can add.

I will gladly contribute the wallet-mod.

It's a 4 ton device that can empty said wallet in less than 8 seconds. This reduces weight and makes the truck go faster. It usually results in black smoke and interesting conversations with your spouse over credit card bills.
