Wow.......light on the diesel Excursion owners ! You guys out there hiding ?? .......I gotta get some more of us !!!

 

Post up!!! Its hard to have a seprate forum for the Excursions, most will just post in the ford section!!!


Here is a pic of my wifes Excursion...

 

That thing looks great !......what is your lift and tire size ??
I'll try and drag'em out ....problem is...You have F250/350 people.....and Excursion people.....from what I have seen ......diiferent folks/different needs.....except for the common PSD.....unless they have a truck and an Ex....like you do..... (which you don't mention in your sig.....you should, it's awesome......and you are obviously proud of it or it would not look that damn good !!) Lovin this forum by the way.....honest real life people without all the BS....can't believe it took me this long to find it !

 

Well lets be very clear here...

1. Its my wifes Excursion, If I even thought about claiming it as mine... lets just say it would not be good for my health. LOL

2. HER lift is a 6" revtek with 18" wheels and 37" Toyo MT's

3. She has installed a 4" turbo back, AFE stage 2, and a GTP-38r with a 1.15 housing...




4. I did install a set of Autometer Cobalt gauges on a overhead pod, pyro, fuel pressure, boost and tranny pressure. She has a Scan gauge in a underdash pod and I plan on adding a water temp and oil pressure gauge to fill out that pod...

I cant pick her choice in gauges... I would be much happier with Isspro in there but... It is HER truck! LOL

There are a lot of great people on this forum with lots of good experance! Huge group of sponsers as well.

Good idea on the add to the sig, at least it will let everyone know there is one in the stable!

 

Dang ! Good catch !!! I see why you married that girl !!! Her Ex is great !
Mine will do appliance,computer and home plumbing repair....but can't get her to do vehicle. Is she on here posting about her Ex ?
Did you gear change for the 37's ? worried about the trans living...

 

No, She used to post on another site, but quit a few years ago. I will remind her to come over here!

She does all her own oil changes, takes it in when it needs rotations... It is fully her rig!

She got it with about 90k on it, and within a few weeks it was getting a new tranny... Got one of the Ford Extream Duty trannys they have now, 3 year 75k warranty so.

Not geared for the 37's, and more then likely it will stay that way. I regeared mine (4.30)and really regret it. It was nice to cruise down the hwy at 75 turning 2k or so... Now its around 2400 and just gets loud.

 

How does it pull with the 3.73's and 37's ? does the tranny avoid lock up ?? Do you tow with it at all ?? Is that trans warrantied with the lift and a tuner ?

 

Pulls fine, drags my flatbed and enclosed trailer from time to time. Pulled a truck like mine over the pass and for a few days without issue.

I could not tell you about the warranty, its been on there now for about 60k without issue so...

 

Just wonderin.....everyone says the stock trans won't take tires above 33"

 

They should have made more diesel excursions. they're kind of a rare breed around here.
