Post New Supercharger today

Well, I put the beast in today for the much anticipated changeout on the supercharger. Front seal has been leaking and they checked it out and agreed..no problem. Not sure if the intercooler will come with it as an assembly, but should know later today.

If it isn't so much trouble, ask to see the parts, and if you can, take a look at the intercooler, and take pictures? I am going to try, when I go in.

I showed my dealer some pictures posted here, and he just wanted to know how the heck I got them. They were black and white, and thought someone tore down my truck. Even after telling him the truck in the picture was RED, he still had to ask.

Will try, Tundra. I have a digital camera and will try to get some photos. That dealership is on busy place, so I will have to sneak in the back while it's being done..which is not a problem. Did it last time the truck was in. I'll keep ya posted...have to be out of the office between 11:00 and 1:00 today, so I'll go by then. Film at 10:00!!

Tundra, went by the dealership yesterday and the truck hadn't been touched. Turns out Ford sent the supercharger (no intercooler darnit) but forgot to send gaskets according to the service rep. Funny, my card from the parts dept shows gaskets received. Hmmm. Any way, they should start on it today. I'll try and swing by before they close it up.

Cool, I have had those kind of problems before also, in fact I let the parts man make a fool of himself. I hope they treat your truck right, and I appreciate your efforts.
