As a new member here you should start the ball rolling by asking if anyone here thinks a tailgate damper is a worthy upgrade :crackup: wait, dont listen to me! Welcome, I see you are a Ford tech!

I have always been a Ford guy, my first real job was washing cars at a Ford dealer:crackup: Besides I have no respect for Toyota as a company, actually the racing division, TRD, so I would never buy one no matter awesome it was.

Yeah it can be done, you can de-arch the spring, I had the local spring shop de-arch them 1.5" it was cheap, $130 I think, but I bought the global Ranger multi leaf spring and de-arched them not my Tremor springs. You have to shorten the bump stop as well, you should also check the current...

I know I'm going to catch crap for this, but just in principal CFD increasing the volume is usually a benefit, it can go too far, excessive volume can disastrous, but that usually falls in the humongous versions, some large intakes are so poor that the engine barely runs, the Viper had one of...

I suppose, but these guys show up with the exact tools, move quickly and are gone fast and trying to wrench them out with pliers would take a lot longer than the screw gun that they use. Is it perfect, no, but it may slow them down just enough.

It took a while to get the adjustment right, then the wife gets in and blows it out, so I put really small pieces of blue tape arrows down on the side of the seat trim to get back to the perfect position, I have a manual seat.

I swapped the screws with Allen head bolts, then filled them with a clear glue that's damn near impossible to remove, but I still worry they will just smash them if they cant get them.

Every single time my wife gets out of the truck I have to twist the passenger belt, Velcro? must be 2022 thing my 21 does not have it.... I dont think?

You should just repurpose it, bring it in the house and tell the dog; "you wont get in trouble for going to the bathroom in the house anymore if you go right here"

So I appreciate the sentiment, but the grief was over months ago, he was 92 and held on for so long he was just a prisoner in his own body, it was such a relief when he passed. I will say this.... most of us are sitting in a chair in front of a computer, don't let the chair win, if you sit in...

I'll chime in, why delete the account, I come here to escape the crappy stuff in life, laugh at some of the amusing posts. This place is like therapy, it allows one to ditch the junk in the trunk for a while. It's sure been crappy lately, my daughter got rear ended at 50+ miles an hour...

I stand corrected.

Yes I know, Shaun commented that too, by traditional standards, driveshafts are timed or they vibrate, un-timed must be a countermeasure for something or driveshaft mfg has evolved away from timed shafts. 20 years ago if you walked into a driveshaft shop and asked them to build a shaft out of...

I'm sure the one piece is a better shaft, but way back in this thread somewhere Shaun stated something like, "if you drive fast, dont buy my driveshaft" not that I regularly go super fast, but if I want to, I'm the kind of guy to get paranoid about the 'what if' His website states; If you...

I was hoping Shaun would comment on the calculations TJC did, the critical speed thing is all that's holding me up from adding his driveshaft to the top of the truck wish list.

Ha, in 92-93 when Ford was doing a minor design on the T Bird, they came to California for design input and ended up taking back like 10 big gulp cups from 7-Eleven, (32 ounce) the 94 Birds had one big and one small cup holder, so Ford has got it right in the past. I would be happy if at least...

functional and ugly, sounds like the perfect wife, does the dishes and laundry and too ugly to cheat on you.:LOL:

That's a lot of work to calculate all of that data, if those numbers are correct, that makes me want to replace the Ford shaft. I only have a vibration when I have weight in the bed, it vibrated unloaded before I put in pinon shims, I might have already bought a one piece shaft but was...

Driving fast is one of those things where the only basic requirement is knowing how to depress the gas pedal, but driving fast in a controlled manor is completely different. I have held a competition license for 30+ years, from Karts to stock cars, I have seen licensed drivers who are supposed...

Just drive it in tow/haul mode, it uses all gears, the downshifts may annoy you though.
