    2001 F350 4x4 7.3L Powerstoke Diesel all-purpose build

    So the turning radius is still about the same that doesn't really change at all. But the ride quality is perfect! Full traction has nailed the geometry of this kit. Coupled with the adjustable ride control king coilovers I can't get over the ride quality on and off road. It's better than the...

    Picked up this camper shell for free today. I cant decide if i should have it sprayed with white bedliner, or just have it painted? It came with the clamps and has carpeting and the rear window is not broken. The last free shell I had was missing the rear window.

    Thank you sir! $650 but then I decide to have it professionally bed lined by arma coatings for another 200$ with uv protectant gloss topcoat. Arma coatings is a hot application bed liner, it looks just like linex. The closest linex is 1.5 hours away and they are crazy expensive to coat these...

    Bed liner was finished up yesterday, mounted the winch in the tray today. The 17.5k is a close fit but nothing rubs! 8 bolts mount the winch to the plate and 4 5/8" bolts fasten the winch plate to the framework on the bumper. I will hang the bumper tomorrow, off to work for the rest of the day...

    Shot of the old 2001 7.3 F350 with the new custom bumper finally finished up. Sending it off for bedliner coating Monday morning. I have some rigid dually midnight edition lights on the way and a 17.5k lb Smittybilt X20 waterproof winch for the winch cradle [/url]

    A few of the most current photos. I picked up a smittybilt 17.5k lb winch model x20 waterproof model with wireless remote.

    Yes I am keeping it. I had to sell my 83 Toyota pickup though. I was sad but very happy to keep this. I have a 53 willys truck too and had to let one of the 4x4's go. I was least attached to the 83. Ill update more photos in the thread this evening

    I will regear to 4.10 or 4.11 at some point and arb lock the rear. I will probably leave the front open. Unless you are wheeling the superduty really hard, I feel ok with an open front. They do make an arb for the dana 50 though. If I decided to lock the front I'd probably swap a 60 in.
