Hey guys hope everybody is doing great an your trucks are treating you well. Just curious if anybody out there has a winterfront for your truck. I am looking to get one but am not for sure what to get. What do you guys have? Where did you get it? Cost? Hard to install. Thanks for any an all help its greatly appreciated.

JOEL 2003 7.3 PSD REG CAB

 

Anybody Come on guys talk to me help me out. I guess not many people have one.

 

Not cold enough here for me. I cant see it helping much though as you would be blocking your Intercooler which seems to me that would result in a higher EGT. I think these trucks put out more than enough heat to keep the coolant warm. I may be out on a limb here as i have no prior experience with one, but my $.02

 

Not cold enough for me either, but this will give it a bump to the top again for you.

 

It does get a little cold up here in Wisconsin but I don't have one either. Just curious, why would you want to get one? Truck not heating up? Mine cooks me out.

 

Never had any problems in N. Illinois. If you're looking for cheap a piece of cardboard wired to the intercooler.

 

I think any competent auto upholstery shop should be able to make one for you, and even come up with a creative way to install it.

 

I have never ran one never had a need too. Kris Strokin_it7.3 has ran one before might send him a PM

 

I just use a piece of carpet, works good for me. I cut it to fit into the grill and 4 spring hooks to latch onto the grill and I am good to go.

 

my 99 came with one it is a thin sheet of stainlessthat fills the holes in the stock grill. i will take some pics if it is light when i get home from work.

 

I think Lisa (Smokin') got one when a fellow PSD'er gave it up, and maybe one other person, but I can't remember who...

I've got the 203* thermostat and even when we hit -25 for a couple nights I still had to turn my heat down on long drives.

 

i also have pieces that go in the other openings but have not used them

 

i have a lund cold front i like it, i had the same thing for my 94
its made out of the same material as their bug deflectors and vent shades/rain guards

 

Thanks everybody for the input. An special thanks to Brandon for taking those pics. Gives me a good idea on what it looks like. Much appreciated
