General question - are you planning on parting the whole thing out and returning to stock? Would you consider working something out for the Carli suspension and my Tremor package parts?

11-16 can fit a full size 37” spare in factory location, but 17+ cannot without the Carli hitch. I think the rest of your questions can be answered by Carli or CJC Offroad https://carlisuspension.com/product/ford/f250-f350/sd-components/2017-plus/trophy-hitch/

Man that last LSSV looks good. I go back and forth between do I want a drop down lift again or not, and I usually settle on no but that one just looks right haha. good call on the kryptonite hubs. It’ll be fun to live through you for a little while I continue to slowly gather parts for my LB7...

Oh I look at Craigslist daily, this will be fun. Here’s a recent one I can’t help but chuckle at... a wrecked Duramax with salvage title, that still needs to be repaired... for $15,500 firm. https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/pts/d/nipomo-lbz-duramax-66/7267356724.html

Not sure if it’s just me but photos aren’t loading any more.

Those LSSV’s are sweet, I’ve always wondered what was actually done to them to beef up the suspension. I think their description leads to higher expectations than what it actually has.

Awesome! We have similar tastes. I'm planning on the 704's with 35's and no lift on my 04 I'm reminded of my 06 ECSB with a shell on it as well, that was one of the best trucks I've ever owned. Looks like a great start. Have you considered the weld in brace and Dmax stores idler pivot? I...

Oh jeez, it's love at first sight. I think I recall the first few pages of your thread (or is this on Pirate too?), but I just skipped to the last page and now I need to do a deep dive on the thread. This is a similar truck to my dreams :love: Edit: just made it through at least all the...

If you figure out how to do it without big bucks, let me know :LOL: I had an 02 Duramax, and an 02 2500 Burb at the same time and kept considering combining them, but the Burb was such a lemon I was just ready to get rid of it every other month. Now that it's gone, I'm glad that specific one...

Just curious, and thanks for the info. I've sold off my 2500 Burb, but I may get another one in the future if it's an 8.1 or I swap a Duramax in. I just figured for all the effort of swapping, why not start with the axles and front diff you want, as well as get a beefier transmission to go...

Well done Duraburbs can fetch a pretty penny, but of course then you’re waiting for the right buyer. I suppose you’d be waiting for the right buyer for a SAS Burb anyways though. so you have a rolled and legless LLY still? How much would you sell that thing for if you don’t do Duraburb?

Sorry if I missed it in the thread, I haven't read the whole thing. Any reason after 3 burbs you still start with a 1500 and not a 2500, since you're swapping the running gear over and all?

These rock sliders would compliment the build nicely - https://www.randyellisdesign.com/store/p39/Ford_Superduty_Rock_Sliders_Body_Armor_%23ROCK2005.html Pretty slick truck, one day I'd love to build something similar when the budget allows!

Curious, what package did you get that gave you column shift with the center console? I’ve looked at a lot of 11+ 5.0s and most if not all of the center consoles have the console shift unfortunately.

curious if you can expand on what makes the PW so much better? I don’t own either, I’ve only driven that year SD’s. Is it mainly due to the optioning of the PW? Or would you be saying the same thing about similarly equipped trucks? Both are sweet lookin!

Bumping this up... I’m daily driving this now and it’s just not practical, I want to downsize to a half ton pickup. it’s up to 175k miles. Been to Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and most of the time towing a trailer. Up and down California a dozen times, also usually towing a trailer. since posting...

curious what the selling price was?

Trophy Hitch from Carli advertises 37”-38” spare in factory location for ‘17+, but in the description it says the 2011-16 fit fine. You don’t specify your year but I think excursions ended in 06? Either way the information I provided doesn’t specifically pertain to you, but I would think it...

it doesn’t look like jute to me, its multicolored Fluffy stuff all stuck together.When you say jute, I picture landscape like jute. I’m pretty sure it was mildew. I didn’t see any padding or jute replacements on Rockauto, just full carpet kit with the padding already glued onto it.

Sorry if this is hi-jacking but there’s been a lot of carpet talk in this thread... I just pulled the rear carpet mostly out to do my fuel pump on my 6.0 Burb, and the pad had some mildew spots stuck to the floor boards. After spending almost $600 on the main and rear fuel sender, I don’t...
