I just put a set of 315/70-17 C's from TireRack on my 2013 in July and will say the ride quality is noticeably better than the 37 D's they replaced. Full disclosure: I also had Shocks by Hammer rebuild the OEM Fox 2.5's at the same time, which is probably a larger contributor to improved ride...

I didn't have any clearance issues at all on my 2013.

No doubt. It would’ve cost me WAY less money if I had changed mine at 189k!

Spring failure was on #6 in my original motor. Hard to say whether spring replacement is the right answer because there are plenty of high mileage 6.2's that haven't experienced the issue. Odds are in your favor that it won't be a problem. I just chalked my failure up to bad luck and kept the...

You are correct. My mistake. Went back and looked at an OEM spare and it is definitely a D. Must’ve been thinking about a set of C’s on an old Bronco of mine. I’m on my 5th set of KO’s on this truck and have had 35D’s, 35E’s,and 37D’s. The latest set of metric C’s is my favorite yet for...

I’m pretty sure my 2013 came from Ford with C’s as OEM equipment. Just put a new set of 315 KO2 C’s on it a couple of weeks ago and couldn’t be happier with the ride and handling.

Feel your pain. Had my transmission rebuilt since we were pulling the motor anyway. That’s a good looking truck!

Around $7500 for the Ford reman 6.2 + $500 for Melling billet oil pump. Old block had a hole in it, so didn’t get a core refund. JDM Whipple kit was $10k with stage 2 HE, Ford Racing twin 65mm throttle body, and SCT Tuner w/ JDM tune. Kit also includes CAI, new injectors, new NGK plugs, and...

So it’s been a few months since I chimed in on this thread. I Bought my 2013 SCREW new in 2013 and by April of this year had put 191K on it. A broken valve spring and a dropped valve trashed the motor, so I had to make a decision: park it in the boneyard OR pump some cash into it and keep...

Ha! I’ve been wanting to install one since I bought it new in 2013, but never would pull the trigger. @B E N mentioned in another thread that I’d never regret getting one. After installing the JDM kit and driving it, the only regret is that I didn’t do it years ago! It’s an incredible upgrade!

Thanks! I’ll check that out.

Thanks! Went with the JDM 700 HP package with the twin 65mm TB and AFCO stage 2 cooler. Had a really good experience dealing with them and the JDM tune is exactly what I was hoping for. For anyone considering this upgrade, I’d highly recommend giving a call. While I had everything apart, I...

Do you happen to remember the paint code? The PC told me he could order whatever I wanted, but none of his color charts showed a wrinkle finish like that.

Spent the weekend going from this: to THIS!!

I did the same after I saw yours. Didn't realize the polished lettering didn't show up in my original photo. Here's a couple of different angles taken during install. Also removed the studs prior to sending them out for powdercoat, which made the sanding process much easier! If I'm being...

Purchased a set from Tasca a few weeks ago. Had them powder coated in Ford Blue and installed them over the weekend. One thing I really like about these is the 6mm stud mounts on the top. I have some bolt-mount zip ties from Fastenal that happen to fit perfectly, so it made organizing the...

I'm currently in the middle of this exact install and can confirm that the SDHQ hidden mount with a Warn ZEON 9.5 cti-s won't work with either the AFCO or the Whipple coolant reservoir tank in their stock mounting locations. With the AFCO installed, there's only 2.5" clearance between the...

I just finished installing my OEM rebuilds from Brian at Shocks by Hammer complete with new Geisers on low perch. Truck sits almost level and ride quality is absolutely back to “as new”. My entire interaction with Brian was top rate. Communication was awesome, turnaround was very quick, and...

I looked at the same one last week. Just an FYI - according to the Item Specifics in the listing, those pics are stock images and not the actual motor being purchased. Not saying anything negative about the seller, but I'd want pics of the actual item being purchased before I pulled the trigger.

Thanks for the input. No Bueno is right! We found a chunk blown out of the block on the passenger side that we missed on first glance. It didn't really drop any oil or coolant, which is really surprising, so thought the block was OK. Unfortunately, it's trashed. One bright spot, though, is...

Thank you, sir! Will do.

I tell myself I'd like to just rebuild it if possible, but then I find myself on the Livernois site again drooling over that 6.6 stroker!

Sorry, but I didn't get any photos when we scoped it. Piston is in several pieces somewhere in the bottom end along with the valve. Bore is pretty roughed up; lots of shavings and a couple of gouges. Bottom of liner has a tear in it from an impact. Also, didn't get a look at the rod, but I'm...

Been a while since I've checked out the forum, but thought I'd chime in on this thread. Bought a 2013 Screw new in August 2013 and have enjoyed every mile! Currently have 192K on it, and have only had a couple of minor issues until earlier this week. Replaced inner and outer pinion bearings in...

I bought the Light Cannons with amber Euro covers & brackets from James @ Alternative in Nov., then bought the Baja Squadron fog kit from him for Christmas. Both are extremely bright. To be honest, though, i find the euro covers virtually useless. They diffuse the light way too much for my...
