2006 Ford F250 Super Duty 4x4 Crew Cab Short Bed Pickup
For consignment, a 2006 Ford F250 Super Duty 4x4 with enough modifications to fill up three pages. Nearly every part of this truck has been enhanced, improved, lifted and that includes the engine. From exterior add ons to engine management and suspension upgrades, this is a no expense spared build and one that would take many years and big big money to replicate. The DC Power High Output alternator alone was $1,000! Some of these enhancements are visible and obvious, while many others, from the Hypertech speedometer calibration, H/O wire kit, fuel regulator kit, and internal engine work are not. The sheet metal and interior are factory, but everything else, from stem to stern, has been massaged in some way.
Exterior
Basic Black here and if we just look at the body of the truck as a stand alone item, there's nothing unusual about it. No wild paint job, no added graphics. The panels are straight, and the paint is very nice but not without some color mismatch on the passenger's front and driver's rear door, peeling clear coat, cracks in paint, scratches, and scuffs. It has AMP power steps to help get you to the cab, new OEM roof lights to make your presence known at night, and a cowl hood. Custom designed 20-inch Weld Forged Slingblade wheels carry 38x15.5R20LT Toyo Open Country tires. A big MRBP chrome exhaust tip is the visible end of a 5-inch turbo back system. A ReTraxPRO MX hard tonneau covers a bed that's been sprayed with bed liner and connects to a McGard tailgate lock.
Interior
Standard Ford fare on the door panels consist of molded gray plastic, familiar buttons, and safety lights. Black leather bucket seats provide a nice perch from on high and the driver has a myriad of seat controls on the plastic shell below. The back bench is roomy enough for your crew and retains the black leather treatment. The standard steering wheel shows some wear and our eyes are drawn to the A-pillar where four gauges are installed; fuel pressure, a pyrometer, boost gauge and transmission temp gauge. The standard gauge pod in front of the driver and the center stack has range selector switches, auxiliary light switches, a Pioneer AVIC 8000 unit with AM/FM/CD, and of course, the heater/AC controls. The low pile black carpet is in good condition, the headliner is intact, and we note the rear view mirror is delaminating and just behind it we note a crack in the windshield
Drivetrain
The truck comes with a 6.0 liter Powerstroke Diesel V8, of course, but the following has been added, replaced, or deleted: Powerstroke Specialty Bulletproof kit, EGR delete, Xtreme Diesel EGR delete Cover, Sinister Diesel cold air intake, billet thermostat housing, silicone elbows, intercooler charge pipe kit, and intake elbow. A Garrett turbo, Mishimoto aluminum radiator, Edge Griffin programmer with PHP custom tunes, PHP FICM tuner, Blue Spring upgrade fuel regulator kit, NEW water pump, OEM Ford oil cooler, thermostat, coolant Cap, degas bottle, Ford Motorcraft glow plugs, and Motorcraft injectors. Truck also has a carbon fiber intake elbow, Sinister Diesel oil bypass filtration system and coolant filtration kit along with coolant bypass lines into back of heads, DC Power 270XP high output alternator, H/O wire kit, a Sinister Diesel leveling kit, diesel billet oil filter cap, and diesel billet fuel filter cap. The heads have O-ringed BiggDogg heads, bronze valve guides, and ARP head studs. But wait, there's more! The fuel injection is enhanced with the O Dawg diesel ported intake and the five-speed automatic transmission is a rebuilt F5R100 with a Mag HyTec transmission pan. The 4.56 gears at both axles include Eaton Detroit TrueTrac units and Mag HyTec differential covers. Power disc brakes on all fours include Powerstop Z36 HD pads and rotors.
Undercarriage
The suspension is the star of the show and includes the following modifications. A front PMF Long Arm 4 link, PMF HD coil buckets, PMF Stage 2 gusseted traction bars, a PMF rear spring conversion kit, rear Deaver leaf springs, PMF dual steering stabilizer kit With KING Shocks, KING 2.5 coilovers, (2.5x10" custom valved for Ford Super Duty), KING 2.5 Piggyback rear, KING 2.0 steering stabilizer shocks, PMF coilover conversion mount system, lift blocks and U-bolts. A MBRP 5" turbo back exhaust system sends spent gas directly to the big tip in the back. It's clean underneath with occasional spots of surface rust.
Drive-Ability
I don't care how big you are, this truck will make you feel small, and that's part of its appeal. The big diesel and all its accoutrements start with a roar and we roll out onto the tarmac being vigilant about the wide wheels and monster height. All of those parts and mods result in a great running truck with big power and surefooted suspension. Our track is flat but not without the occasional imperfection and pothole, but this truck glides over undulations without a care. The only notable operation flow is a non functional passenger's power lock.
Big boys drive big toys and this truck has been treated to a no expense spared list of ride and engine enhancing components. It's like a showcase for the aftermarket and is a spectacular version of a lifted truck that can be driven to work just as readily as it can hit the show circuit.
