Can't wait to see what you do with it! Although...doesn't this gen of 5.0 have cylinder deactivation...? With all the issues the GM trucks are having, hopefully Fords system won't be as problemactic.
Oh, with my 5.0/10sp/3.73 truck...the drone was brutal when I tried to do anything with aftermarket exhaust.
I found this thread and built my own "Helmholtz resonator" and it completely solved the problem.
Exhaust Drone Cure - Ford F150 Forum - Community of Ford Truck Fans
2009 - 2014 Ford F150 - Exhaust Drone Cure - Cure or bandaid, I'm not sure. I have a 2012 5.0L and replaced the stock muffler with a Magnaflow 3 SISO, along with replacing the pipe from the muffler to the factory ball/socket flange with a 3 pipe (retained the factory tailpipe). No surprise, it...www.f150forum.com
3.15 but plans are 3.73 and an LSD for now.What gears does it have?
Man that’s bad ass. I can never seem to find 5.0L A10 single cabs.
those things can be absolute rocket ships
I do too. Makes me want an RX-7 someday even more. Rotaries are violent, noisy, and just fun as hell. Even with all the quirks.I ****ing love Robs car
That F-150 surprised the hell out of them though. Lol.I ****ing love Robs car
Nice mods, sir! I like the Shelby 22" wheels a lot. Do you have any photos with the wheels mounted, or are you waiting a bit?
Thank you!Looks SWEET!! I see keeping the steelies on didn't last long... LOL! Don't blame you a bit!
Color matching should really clean up it up and make it look like a more premium model, at a fraction of the cost.
Another thing, if you want to black out the rear wheel wells, rear wheel well liners are fairly cheap for these trucks.
Good call on the wheel wells. Made a huge difference on mine.Thank you!
Yes, wheel liners are definitely on the list! I might just do those next.
GREAT pick up and even better plans.
Let me see some more pics of that 4runner!
