Part 2 and the reveal is now LIVE! Watch it here: ua-cam.com/video/1rlfmxsaars/v-deo.html
Most of your ride issue is coming from those leaf springs, you got a lot of leafs under there more than factory
And terrible shape
Yeah I was gonna comment this, mine has like 5 leafs this is waaaaay too many
New springs is the easiest way but to really get the best, its good to upgrade to 6.0 power stroke coils.
@@ak14619 also probably want to cut off the turn stops or you gain nothing in turning radius which is the bigger benefit to the coil design. i mean my front end rides great with leafs but it turns like a bus.
Was thinking the same. Poor man’s leveling job maybe? I put X code OEM springs on mine to level it off.
That leaf pack you got in the front is serious I can only imagine how rough that thing ride
Replace the leaf springs too, it will make a huge difference.
the rust jacking in between the leafs on your front leaf springs is pretty insane. you should put new leaf springs on your to do list for the front at least. It wont be long before one of the cracks, turns sideways and cuts your tires. ..
Also that is FAR from a stock pack and if he wants a better ride should get a more appropriate pack.
That truck is awesome and your choice of what you did to it was stellar. Your narration is top notch. Great video. I'm glad you are very happy with it.
Thank you for showing the struggle. Most mechanics feel ashamed with the problems they encounter so they leave that out of the video. As a mechanic myself, those are the moments that make me feel the most mechanically inclined.
Can’t wait to see this thing that’s a lot of work props to you for pushing through
Wow you got the best father in the world. Beautiful truck you got
Those springs need to go ASAP. Especially the front ones. Just get some OEM replacements all the way around and will make a big difference. Probably needs a Blue Top steering box and all new tie-rods to get the steering back on point. If it needs ball joints do those too.
A lift is cheaper. And better.
Springs really look bad brother. Be careful!
Great video man!! Loving the look already!!!
It’s probably a good thing that the shock mount broke. It could’ve broke when you’re driving the future which would be way more headache.
Awesome seeing someone local doing the videos! Keep it up love from mass!
Holy sheep sheet that's a rusted out rig.
Looks awesome. Must be interesting to go from driving the truck to driving the Corvette!
Excited for the next video! I hope you go back with a 6.7 in it
Love the video 😂😂. Dude keep up the good work your content is a blast to watch.
That leaf pack woof
Everyones talking about replacing the leafs, theoretically you could do the 05-07 coil conversion if you really care
I really do love those rims you put on there. I'm buying a very similar set tomorrow.
You should invest in a air hammer brother. It will be your go to tool for those stuck stubborn bolts.
Looks like you got a lot of undercarriage work and restoration to do. Those leafs are in bad shape both with surface rust and the fact they are no longer conformed to the proper geometry. The entirety of the front end steering linkage likely also needs replacement with either new OEM parts, or, since its on a lift and everything, beefed up aftermarket components, as you WILL end up getting death wobble with how much wear and tear there is up there. In regards to the leaf springs, you actually have two options, you can either get new ones, OR you can find a coil sprong conversion kit that will GREATLY improve the ride, i also know there are axle swaps out there so that you can throw the wheel spacers out entirely and be done with the possible dangers they impose.
Really nice looking OEM plus build man. Get that frame cleaned up and that bedside. You’ll have yourself a real beauty!
Your truck riding harsh is mostly bc if the leaf springs, they seem to be really flat instead of arched lien they should be, also possibly replacing those with a smaller leaf pack and adding a block underneath to have a 6” lift line you currently have will improve your ride a lot, they do sell 6” lifted leaf springs, I had the same truck and I loved the way it ride with the 6” leaf springs
That's weird because I'm also building the best 7.3 out there 😂 love to see it because they're all dying out
that's a really nice jacket my man
Well done🎉
I didn’t even know you were from New Hampshire. That’s amazing! NH GANG
i love the yellowstone clip
Get rid of some of those leafs not all but some and put some helper bags under it and the ride will blow your mind.
i have the bilstein 4600 series on my 04 5.4 f350 and i absolutely love them!!!
I've had 5 superdutys this era I used for plowing and pulling besting the crap out of them all diesels .....with that being said I've never seen front leafs that messed up bro! Replace them asap or that front axle is coming out of that rig!!!
26 minute video for spacers, wheels and center caps? First and last video for me.
Those front leaf springs are SCARY rusty and look like they came off a dump truck. No wonder it rides harsh.
what i learned from your video is that i'm never gonna modify a vehicle unless its the newest generation and not rusted
On my Bucket List… A Bass Pro shop Hat..🙏🏾😩🙏🏾🍀
Brooo your leaf springs 🫠🫠🫠
Nice truck
Those are pretty janky looking leaves
Makes me want a truck now
Good ol’ Rhode Island
Also that is a crazy amount of leafs on that front end
So Funny ! Ive been watching your channel before and after I picked up my 02 C-5 Blk on Blk 6spd and already had The 01 7.3 F-250 ..6in lift 37.5 tires Faulken Wildpeak A/T With the Bilstiens ..Dont forget the BDS Fox steering stabilizer !! Good Times Thanks for the C-5 Advice !!
The god ol Rhode Island lol great video and god bless your car for traveling over the Mt Hope Bridge
Need to get some Fluid Film on that frame brother.
Cambridge Massachusetts baby
Nice Production and Mods!!! I will be in the process (when I get home form a work project) to start working on my 2005 F350 Power Stroke (got stolen less than 24 hours after buying it!) but its fixable and I will make it better than ever! loving the direction of your build, new sub here!
I have owned two 05 f350s and I currently still have one. Its my baby with 102,000.. no rust al att
@@redneckswitwheels I can't wait to dig into mine and build it back up, better than ever, will be filming the process on my UA-cam Channel, shortly!
Wow there is a lot of springs on the front
Hey have you notice or have any wheel vibration from installing spacers
I have a sick one. Hydro steer. 8" lift. But im going bronco. Gas is my old friend.
leaving another comment about the rust in your leaf springs... take them apart break it off with a needle scaler and re assemble.
Holy squeezed leaf packs Batman!
Damn i love that i like in az and both my trucks have always been az trucks ( it kills paint but no rust👍)
Hey man love your videos like usual please let me know if you don’t want those old wheels and tires because mine are trashed and I’m in nh already and have the same truck and would love to get those off of you
King ranch stickers on flaps next??
Great video, thinking seriously about doin this exact mod to me f350
What size tire r u running?
Great video! But bro…. The rust separating the leaf springs is very terrifying! You need to replace asap! Good luck!
What size bolt was that bottom front shock mount you got from the parts store ?
Sweet Superduty ❤
Are the front leaf springs shot🤔
Keep the dual shocks!!!
How far do the tires sit beyond the fenders? Looks like an inch or so.
New leaf springs asap they looked crushed together 💀
“The world”😂😂😂 bro that’s a very strong statement 😂😂😂
What were they thinking with that many leaf springs in the front....that's crazy
Those front leafs are so worn out
Glad I sold my 7.3l with 250k miles on it for 12 grand while I could while prices were high. So many parts were worn out it woulda cost me probably like 12 grand in parts and labor to get it up to snuff. I did that poor young kid dirty. Sometimes I feel bad about it. Good video though!
@@KiyaWarrior 🤣 buyer beware
You should switch the double block lift in the rear to one giant block
I would’ve definitely put a coat of POR-15 on everything in the wheel well while you had stuff off but hey clean truck all in all.
Do y’all on the East coast always install shocks upside down? Not saying it’s wrong just never seen that.
Ahh nothing like new England weather
replace those front axle stabilizer shocks too
where did you get lift kit from
Shocks upside down 😅
Those front springs are hit.
Ditch those leaf springs bro get some u codes
What part of nh are you from?? Amazing video once I saw the nh license plate I was a new sub🤘🏻 I’m a fellow nh resident
What do you want for your wheels and tires?
Not only are those leafs rust jacked to heck. They’re also flat. Totally pounded out lol should have a slight curve upwards…like a “U”
Looking good!
Please get some oil on that frame :) That poor bedside. I have an 03 that did the same thing. My 14 6.7 diesel almost did the same thing, but I love that truck, so I put new bedsides on it.
4 link with air and it will ride without your fillings shaking out. Leaf springs are for buggys from the 1800s. 4 link for both ends.
Looks like you have larger brake calipers than factory, they look like SSBC
What size tire you running
South Carolina Tattoo?
waddup brotha 👋
It honestly looks like a stock right height. My truck was the same height and it was a factory ride height, only difference I see is you got more leafs springs in the front and yours is smaller then mine was😂
Nice truck but why is there so many leaf springs in the front, makes no sense because the front doesn’t need payload capacity and ruins the ride. Also you should probably never grind the studs for your wheels
What wheel did you pull off it? Was it Alcoa or something
DUDE!! get rid of that front leaf spring set up, you can buy a coil spring axel off of 05 and later super duty’s and swap them pretty easy, if you don’t do that please get new leaf springs in the front those things aren’t far from breaking in half
Link to headlights pls
350, 7.3, 4x4, 2 tone, marker lights... I prefer the Obs 7.3s but no doubt a nice truck. Such a shame we live in the NE. I was planning on my 2017 duramax to be my last new truck ever but I think Pa winter has different plans..
Those leafs are toast. Replace those. For sure not factory… way to many of them in there
You need new springs and the duals would have been nice
Holy shit that’s insane how many leafs that thing has like wow you need to get the proper ones mine has 3 leafs in the front malt have two lol
men of culture i’m everything you ever desired farm girl and lover of fords watching from jamaica 🇯🇲 BIG UP
God damn it! 😂😂
We need part 2!!
Dude graet job but like some other people said rplease eplace the leaf spring ASAP like NOW you did all that and still driven a death trap the only time i seen worst springs then that is on a saltwater trailer .... witch anyone who lives in south florida and owns a bout will kmow what im saying ... one good pot hall and they may snap like a tooth pick
I don’t know how you’re gonna fit all those Chevy parts on that Ford lol😂
Where's the front left and right hub cap cover
I agree those front leaf's look bad and probably need replaced. They are defiantly going to ride like a hay wagon. If you are looking into options, NEVER use lift blocks on the front end. The lateral force at play is not the same as the rear. There is a reason no company offers "front lift blocks". I am also surprised that no one has mentioned the stacked lift blocks in the back. That's also generally a no go. The blocks with the ears on the inside are Ford factory. Looks like one of the owners just added another 3 inch block. Normally you don't want to do that. Especially with a truck that sees a trailer. Again, imagine lateral load. The 2 blocks have the most leverage between them, instead of the axle to leaf. I'm honestly kind of surprised they weren't at least welded together lol. Nice build though.
Put 37’s on it it will look much better
