I am always available by mail at: stephensrrenteria@britishlions.net .
This is my 2002 F350 XLT crew cab long bed. The truck came from California and is 100% rust free. Truck has been
stored winters in a heated shop and never been in snow or salt.The current photos posted are before i clean the
truck up. I want to give an accurate depiction of how it looks on a day to day biases as i drive it. Truck has been
meticulously maintained. Oil changes have been done every 2500-3000 miles using only motor craft oil and filters.
The truck goes through a complete service every winter. I personally remove the wheels clean everything check the
brakes, grease the caliper slide pins, inspect the u-joints and check the wheel bearings. The truck rides on a
fab-tech 4-link 8 inch lift with brand new 37 13.50 20 Toyo open country mud terrain tires. The tires are on forged
center-line wheels.Truck rides so much better with coil overs vs leaf springs. There was some bump steer with the
lift installed so i did a crossover steering kit from PMF with a redhead steering box , new Ford pump, lines and
hydro booster. The truck handles much better and has no issues turning the tires. The track bar was raised at the
same time to keep all of the geometry correct. When driving the truck exhibits much less body roll with the raised
track bar and tracks flat through corners. The engine runs perfect and uses no oil. All of the fuel and oil lines
have been resealed with o-rings from diesel o-rings.com. There are no leaks or drips. The turbo has ben replaced
with a Garrett GTP38R ball-bearing unit with a ww2. Also installed is a EBPV delete pedestal and flange.The turbo
spools much better. The transmission shifts flawlessly and has had regular flushes. There is some shudder under
take off and is related to the 2 piece rear drive shaft angle. I have a shop that will build a 1 piece shaft that
will solve the problem. I did not find it annoying enough to warrant going that route. There is a 6 position tuner
along with air intake exhaust and Isspro gauges. The exterior of the truck has genuine Ford 08 and up tow mirrors
05 Headlights and ridged led driving lights with rigid bracket kit.The paint is clean and is waxed regularly. There
is normal wear and tear, stone chips minor dings ect. Again 100% rust free. I have a set of fender flares to go
with it, also a set of PMF pinch weld covers.The AMP Research steps work flawlessly and are a great product. the
interior is near perfect no rips tears or stains. the sound system is all high end components.I did nothing cheap
on this truck. The truck runs and drive perfect needs nothing.the only item that does not work properly is the
isspro trans temp gauge.I believe it is the AMP box for it but i have yet to diagnose it. If this is a major
concern i will have it working.
