Hay man nice bars nice truck :) what bummer you got thank for sharing
It’s an in house design with that truck. We have more in stock that would be a diy version of that
Appreciate the time you took to make the video. This has given me the confidence to install a set of my own on my Duramax. Thanks!
Motodrew no problem. On your d-max you can trim the bottom of your spring hangers and flip half of your e break bracket out to the side and put a much cleaner shorter set on if you're not already real lifted
I've got an 8" Fabtech lift I'm going to settle as much as possible. I'll be going to 4" tapered blocks in the rear. Looks like I should be able to find room for the brackets next to the shock hangers.
Motodrew I recently made a -max specific post on ig about these if you didn't see it
Super friggn cool man. First time seeing a body swapped SixOh
You answered every question I've had that's hindered me from building my own. I was looking at going 72" myself with a stock setup. I'm putting a 3" rear lift and 4.5 inch front. Hopefully the traction bars won't need much modification after the lift is installed. I'm a fairly skilled welder/fabricator with quite a few years under my belt. I'm near certain I can iron out the kinks on the minor details but your video was exactly what I needed to see to give me the inspiration to make it happen. That's one saaweeet ass truck too brother. That body didn't come out of my parts. The 68's and all years in between are near extinction. They're like finding a needle in a haystack when one is even salvageable. Keep up the good work.
Hopefully will get more vids! Always get good advice and ideas frm someone tht actually knows what there doing...good vid love all ur builds man keep them coming!!!!👍🏼
Bravo dude very well put together and informative video 10 out of 10👍👍
What a absolute unit man. Sick truck
Great job! That’s a sharp looking Ford, too!
Great stuff Darrell. I've been a FFS fan since the first time I saw that first gen, and wow you guys have really come up in the past few years. 🍻to your continued success sir
Dan Evan thx. I'm not sure exactly where we've gotten! Im doing still swimming in my mess and too broke to make good progress on these trucks! Haha. Oh well. I'm trying to enjoy regardless 👍🏼👍🏼
Hell I'm from Cape Cod, MA...I see the letters FFS and I instantly think of the first gen back when you guys started doing those awesome tire letters. When I think of FFS I think of two straight forward guys who make some of the best diesel performance edits/videos, and that everyone raves about your traction bars, grills, stack kits, and that awesome stack/tonneau kit. You guys are definitely well respected not only for the products/footage you supply, but for always being stand up guys willing to interact with people like me
Damn I love olderduty! I've been eyeing those parts for awhile now for my obs I guess I'll be ordering them now. Thanks for the video.
Thx for taking time and doing the vid.
Bro your the man lots of good video I'm doing a k1500 Cummins swap and taking advice from all your videos
How's that Cummins swap coming? Make a vid yet?
I’ll be ordering some for my 2wd obs ford soon.
Bad ass Super Duty truck!!
sweet truck
Nice job ol chap. I couldn't have done a better job. Might I say that's a beauty of a truck. I'll buy it immediately.
+Sean Edwards thank you. It's going to be for sale
nice video !!! and nice product, and of course awsome pickups
cummins project thx
I still wish I had the time to put a kit on my 2nd gen like your sick 1st gen.
sweet looking truck!
Nice truck and thanks for the video bro bad ass
Great video, badass truck too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any reason not to run the heim on the axle side instead of at the frame?
No, indifferent. If you have to create an angle, often the easiest path will present itself
Haha you said beating off,... road
that's awesome!
burnnc10454 thx
For myself I always follow the angle of the drive shaft seems to work for me
that’s not a bad rule, but if you could cycle your suspension and see how much slip is used on the driveshaft it might indicate there’s a better location.
@@mopar1darrell I got you you don't always have that
Looks like the grade 5 hardware is the weak point. I was taught always use grade 8 bolts on suspension.
Damn I got your guys Traction bars but I didn't no you guys have rear dif plate give you give me link I got 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 😍😍😍
why doesn't the kit come with 2 rod ends for each bar? instead of having to use a hole saw?
Austin L can no problem. Just a $ upgrade. Shouldn't be any issues but a rubber bushing does insure no noises or vibrations but I don't think it would be an issue. Especially if you ordered it with right hand and left hand sets, then you could easily put a touch of tension on it
Great videos on the suspension stuff and love the olderduty would love to do a 6.0 dent side built one of these days. I built a 4-link for my truck in the front when I did an 05 axle swap, just curious if the 3 link setup is possibly a better ride quality than a 4 link would be and why you went that route?
westone93 I wouldn't say better ride quality, the radius arm is pretty simple compared to a 4 link. On this ford I didn't want the brackets any lower and most 4 links for it hang lower. Otherwise on the dodge it's mostly about space
mopar1darrell Gotcha, ya I agree the 4 link brackets stick down further and can limit clearance. Looks good tho keep up the good work
Nice !!
I know this videos is old, but I’m in the process of building a set of trac bars and I have everything ready to go other than the brackets because I’ve been told you’re not supposed to weld to the bottom of a frame because it can “weaken” it. What are your thoughts on that?
I was looking at your site and came here looking for some advice. I have a Ford F 350 dually lifted 8 inches( crew cab, long bed). What length you do advice for it? Note, that I do like to get past the fuel tank and frame drops around that point( 81 inch from axle).
That's a sweet old truck! Kinda cool to know it's just a new truck underneath. What's withe the old quad headlight dodge sitting in the weeds?
suzukirm250rider1 hopefully an upcoming project. Ramcharger
Love your videos mopar1darrell! Straight forward and concise with details. Would you mind telling me which welder you use for this type of work?
Matt Conner thx. I have a Lincoln mig to use that isn't mine but lives in my garage. It's a very nice welder and allows a dummy like me to get the job done
Is it 110v or 220v?
Matt Conner it's 220. I'll have to check the numbers on it. Not super familiar with options but I do know it's decent with some expand ability built in, like tig
Thank you sir! That's what I needed to know.
Hey Darrell, question, I went with larger arced springs with my 4 inch lift to get rid of the block, so my leaf springs sit directly on my axle, do you still think I should install trac bars? Or do you think that would be a waste of money
ArcticAstrophysics springs can still wrap even with no block, just ask the muscle car guys with no block or spring under. The reason they aren't a waste of money is because the time you need them you will be violently hopping and therefore have to quit or worse yet a yoke or u-joint breaks. Your springs are a nice mod though
Is there a video on the body swap. I want to do it to my 08 superduty
Unfortunately we do not have video of that but we wish we did and hope your build turns out when you get it done let us know.
Hey nice truck can you do a walk around video of the truck thanks !!!!!!!
Dekar Briggs I'll try
mopar1darrell what website did you purchase this kit from. I want to install these on my stock 69 f250 frame
sorry I missed your comment. farfromstockstore.com
So did you only do a "1 wheel peel" because you have a LS rear diff? and if so what did you do get both wheels to spin? My 03 7.3l will sometimes do one and sometimes both.
+Garrett Adams the ford factory lsd leaves a lot to be desired. In great condition they still do just what you said happens to yours, and mine. Im fixing the issue with a YUKON GEAR duragrip lsd. I expect it's performance to be similar to my oem dodge powr-lok , they are brutes and never slip a tire
From my personal experience, the LSD in these trucks started out, fresh from the factory, locking better and more consistent than they do once they're worn. If your experiencing locking issues, you may want to try a lube change with a really good 75w 140 syn with friction modifier in either the additive or premixed steaight from the maker. I recommend Royal purple or amsoil to help the clutches engage more consistently. I'm not saying it will cure those issues but will most likely help to some degree. Obviously, once the clutch plates get so worn, there isn't much you can do besides a rebuild with a locker of some sort. But fresh fluids of the best quality sure isn't going to hurt anything when. It comes to LSD. GOOD LUCK.
did you ever have any issues with binding or anything going down the road with these? about to put a set on a 2008 f250 and was going to mount it the same as you but I tow alot between 10-15k and am worried these are going to bind
Anthony King no sir. That's exactly what this vid is about. Mounting the bars to work with, not against, your current suspension. No problems
I've been wanting to add a long arm on my 05 Jeep but don't know where to start
Ricardo Mejia we can help with that for sure. Send me a dm on ig or an email, Darrell.FarFromStock@gmail.com
Do you have preload the bars when installing them?
No, just even
What is the wheel and tire setup on that truck? and the bumper? I have an 03 powerstroke i'm considering doing a similar body swap on.
Jack Wiggert 33/12.50 Interco Trxus mt's on 20x12 anthem commanders. Home brewed bumper
Thats awesome. Thank you
What axle you got on the front?
All 06 SD chassis
How much is your truck worth?
James Wilkinson not sure but as I make improvements I hope to at least be in the high 20'a
+mopar1darrell would you ever sell it?
James Wilkinson yes. Definitely going to be
So what about the install video kinda sucked honestly. Yes you showed all the parts that go on but how where they installed on the truck. Maybe some closeup videos are pictures would save you a speech if that's what you guys wanted to do.
A lot of Yada n not a ounce of true facts
