2013 F150 Ecoboost Predator

Yeah and they do a great job when aimed properly. I had them a little low and had a dark spot in the center but when I raised them up a little it went away.

I finally decided to get rid of the Toyo AT2s cause they wore bad, causing a vibration in the steering wheel, killed my MPGs more than expected, didn't handle the way I thought they should and we're very loud for a AT tire. I went with a 34x12.5R18 BFG KO2 and just the few days of dry driving they're much better than the AT2s. The ride is much smoother, quieter and seam to grip better.

We put our boat in the water over the weekend and was checking to see if the over load spring was doing anything. I was thinking of removing it to get a softer ride and I saw it wasn't doing a whole lot with the truck loaded for the most I haul.





The D rings came in handy two weekends ago with taking the bike riding

My fleet company came in and recommended to roll over my truck for the lease for a new truck. So after some looking and reading about different trucks I'll be making the switch to a Dodge rebel truck. I can't do what I did to this truck so it has to stay mainly stock. The F150 is nice but doesn't have that aggressive look and the Raptor is too much for doing 20,000 miles a year plus driving in Philly. I should be ordering the truck next week and it will take about 6 months to come in so I'll still have this one for now. If anyone is interested it will be for sale as it gets closer for the new one to come in.

The rebel will be fully loaded and the ram box should be a little easier for getting to the tools.

I had never seen anyone mount the ballast on the rear side of the housing, great idea. You use a lil silicone on the self tappers?

A few updates and pictures from the last post. Not much happened until the motor started ticking the weekend before thanksgiving. I found out the #2 piston had a hole in it so they totaled the motor. I got the call today they're finally ordering the motor. It failed at 63,000+ miles so not even an oil change after the warranty. We're still working out the details of the warranty but in the mean time they're getting it ordered and done cause a month and a half is too long to wait.

Any updates on the warranty claim, fault etc? Stock tune?

I'd look into the Katzkin interior packages, I can't stand the Rebel interior.

Yeah they seam to work and I don't think Ford did anything so my fleet company paid it all. I think the tune stopped the fuel sensors from throwing a light so it was never caught.

Yeah the center part of the seats are stupid and I hope the cloth holds up to kids and a dog.

MOPAR actually sells the Katzkin kit over the parts counter. Pretty sad when all of the people that buy their trucks want to replace it, and the accommodate them!

yes it is and maybe I'll get lucky with the 2017 with them following the RebelX covers.
