hes having some shifting probs and the truck has never been off-roading its never plowed or towed or anything 100,000 miles and its shifting funny and sometimes he has to turn the truck off to fix it..... put that in ur pie hole and smoke it!!! my trans is all new and ready for some more beatin!!
Tell your buddy to have a reputable trans shop to look at his truck, lots of times it's only selenoids that need to be replaced, and it will be good as new.
If you think that sheet of saran wrap would stop those rocks from coming through your cab, and through your head, and continue onto the road into other cars and pedestrians, you're a ****ing idiot.
i wasnt planning on doing a completly brake pedal to the floor stop anytime soon with 2,500lbs of bricks in the bed. i had a 460 back there for a while on that mat it never moved and i didnt have anything straped to it and it was in the winter when my truck was sliding and what not that thing wouldnt move on that mat.
i was just showing what a "Built ford truck" Could do jeeez i think everyone on this forum hates me between my party threads and this oh well.
Oh by the way i had my truck over loaded again this time only for a block in my buddys sub. we loaded up a cut up tree my truck was about an inch or so from bump stops
nope my name is shifty from band of brothers ive always liked snipers and shifty was the sniper. and 85 was my football number. i didnt shift focus i just told him that was a fun thread...untill they both got deleted
Back to me and me being dumb and overloading my truck!
quote rugrats "a baby's gotta do what a baby's gotta do"
and if it is hauling too much for a few minutes then so be it. Only thing hurting on the truck is the springs and tires, maybe the sheet metal in the bed.
If I saw this going down the interstate then yes, retard endangering everybody.
more hard working F-150 threads now please !!!
I have no pictures but Ive done a questionable load or two with my E250, S-10, 72 F150. Probably the worse one was with the 85 F150 inline six 5 speed, pulled a 75 pontiac grand lemans, heavy as haaail with a tow bar for 5 hours on the interstate. The following week a tie rod end broke on it.. pucker power baby.
well my F-150 was at it again...maybe i should get an Add-a-leaf this time 5,000lbs. they ran out of trailers and room on the trailers. exertion with 3 5,000lbs skids 1 17,000lbs skid loader. a tahoe with 2 5,000lbs skids and my truck with 1 5,000lbs skid i was on bump stops we took back roads for about 5 miles never got on a road that wasnt 25mph. my truck did fine i could stop fine water temp was 185* tranny temp never went above 150* it was a pretty ruff ride on bump stops. anyways heres a picture
The day after this i felt bad for my truck so my buddys dad took the skid loader and well...confuzed my leaf springs to say the least...
haha enjoy and let the flaming Begin all over again..
i doubt that load would've blown the trans. in the cummins... my dad used to have a 00 cummins with the 4 speed auto on 35's with a chip and propane injection. it was his work truck so he hauled alot of trailer concrete mixers and other big stuff. it was only after the mods his boss go for it that the transmission went out. comparing a 1/2 tranny to a 3/4 tranny isnt very smart anyways
what picture? it looks kind of crooked in the 2nd one prob because there is no weght on it. No flaming comments this time zaairman? i never went above 25 mph it was pretty fun untill i hit a few bumps truck ran fine with it. if my truck were to turn into a human itd prob beat me with a wrench and throw 5,000 lbs on me and say how do you like it?!
No, in the first one. The wheel doesn't line up right with the truck bed. And flaming? Well, lets see. There is NO WAY that skid weighed 5,000lbs. Your wimpy mis-matched P rated tires WOULD have burst with all of that weight on them. I could go on and on...
