Thanks man! It's been fun to own so far . . . hah

Yeah I had those on order the minute I got home from picking it up, black SD = mandatory Harley's, lol. Got a few ideas for a grille to tie things together a bit nicer, but haven't made a final choice yet. (still wish I could have a clean OBS . . )

Right back at ya, great looking rig man!

 

I'd say paint the inside the grill black dude it'd help

 

I'm gonna try to make a billet grille look good in there, try being the key word, lol.

------------------------

Just thought I'd throw a couple combine pictures in here while we're rained out/I'm in town.









I was even following my tracks I made less than 5 minutes before . . .





--------
Just a few quick shots of the SD:






Thanks for looking! Sorry for the bad white balance, I haven't had time to put much for effort into taking good pictures.

 

Cool pics! I've never seen inside one of those before, lots of buttons.

 

the big ole 7.3 pull that out? haha kidding

looks good man. glad its treating you well. i like that style truck and engine its just so hard to find them in good shape these days.

 

No kidding...Most of them like the OBS were used only for work and got the holy **** kicked out of them.

 

I think almost every superduty does get the crap kicked out of it until it no longer moves... then someone fixes it and does it all over again. haha

 

the exhaust looks killer

 

Nice, we've had 9600 JD stuck 4 times this year, still have a couple hundred acres of hard wheat to get off but to much rain and where suppose to get another 1or 2inches by saturday. Where going to lease another combine and get grain cart also, cause we still have 300 arces of Flowers also and 100 of flax to get off. To much rain, going to start selling lake front property on some of our sloughs I think lol

 

im looking for a truck just like that i love it man

 

Thanks guys!

Thanks. They're pretty fun and comfortable to run, air ride seats, A/C, quiet cab, Sirius radio w/ CD/MP3 player and basically completely finger & hand controlled.

Hah! Not this time, I have yanked out the semi's and smaller 4wd tractor w/ sprayer on when they weren't sunk too badly. It'll pull pretty hard with these Firestone M/T's.

I like it so far, I will admit I sometimes wish I went with an auto trans sometimes, as it makes pulling things out of the mud a bit of a challenge occasionally, and it's geared so low I'm in 4th (5th of 6 speeds) by 30mph, so cruisin' around town does take it's toll on the body (and clutch).

I hear ya on the lake front property bit! (replied in further detail to this in your less-cluttered King Ranch thread)

Had my buddy try to take some of the scratches out, looks way better, bit still shows signs of a hard working/worked farm truck:











*looked this clean for one evening, was caked in mud the next morning at work*


*May be trading my 33" tires for identical, like new 35" tires. If the deal goes through I'll have a 4" lift on this fall/winter*

Nice F250-HD for sale locally . . . that black leather interior looks amazing:

Thanks for looking!

 

****!

 

What happened?

 

yea that looks like it sucks

 

Either the clutch hydraulics (Master/Slave Cylinder) or the actual clutch itself.

To add insult to injury the tow-truck was a Dodge!

Got a 6-spd for reliability, hope this is the last of major failures.

 

Your truck is going to keep having major failures until those mud flaps are gone.

 

^^Wrong...it was all that shining up he did

 

Got a new master/slave system. The new slave is screwed in multiple ways, plus I think the clutch fork hasn't come back all the way/hung up meaning I'll have to drop the trans and do the clutch far earlier than I hoped, just after I dropped a few thousand on a bike. Wonderful.

Really wishing I got a nice Outlaw Edition F150 instead. May start looking again.

 

Dropped the trans . . .













Think I may have found the problem . . .

 

yeah thats deff a "problem" lol

 

Ordered my clutch from ValAir, arrived in 6 days from Texas, couldn't be happier. Same day ordered some other stuff I needed, and a pilot bushing to do the clutch the same day I ordered the clutch. Took 2 weeks to come from California. Upon arrival, there is no pilot bushing or my Warn hubs . . .

By the time I get all of this time consuming **** figured out I'll be black listed and on a few terrorist watch lists. What a ****ing crock.

Lesson learned: ValAir is a great company for clutches. USPS is a terrible company and Riff-Raff will never get my money again.

Edit - Thankfully I'm fortunate enough to have a 2nd(3rd) vehicle, otherwise I'd be up the creek for the last month.

 

Should have had it just shipped to me I was just up that way last weekend playing alittle hockey :)

 

ou ch

 

Drove it to town tonight two minutes after finishing at 2:30AM at -21*C/-6*F without a working heater in my shop. Pics tomorrow.
