There are rumors of Toyota releasing one for the Flex fuel that will change the shift points etc. Shift points can be kinda sorta resolved by resetting the tranny after the SC install, as it will relearn.

I'm saying weight wise, the crewmax is heavier than the supercrew 5.5ft bed... the supercrew 6.5ft bed would be a closer apples to apples comparison as far as stock vehicle weight is concerned. The crewmax cab alone is much much bigger than the supercrew which is that much more weight.

I mentioned the traction nannies because you literally have to press the traction control button 3 different times to get all the nannies turned off. I can squeak my tires with traction on, but they never break loose and still give a tremendous amount of take off. If I turn it all off, I can burn all day long and it's a whole new monster.

As far as I know the FX4 max rear end is 3.73. The XTR or XLT might have a 4.10? Anyone back me up on this?

Prime. I think the Eco vs tundra is a truck by truck basis. There are so many factors... Amount on fuel in the tank, altitude, temperature as well as those mentioned before. All I know is that I said when I raced the Tundra 5.7, I was in front...I never said by how much

Lastly, even a Ram can tow 9,000lbs! Lol! I'm talking about towing 11,300lbs! Teeheehee!!!

Jeff!

You can get a 4.10 in an EB, I don't know which models, but you can only get it with the max tow package.

I'm certainly no expert, but I've never seen 4.10s in an F150! Only ever heard about people swapping em in from 3.55s and 3.73s

Yup, no 4.10s available on Ford's build site from my quick check, if they ever were offered haha

Edit: there are 4.10s in the Raptor, but that has the 6.2. They won't show up in the other trims with the Eco or the 6.2 though. But I'm sure they'd be available in the max tow package if they are available. Also could've been offered for 11s and/12s and not 13s

I've seen them offered on the site where you can customize them, don't remember what package you had to get to get them though.

You can get 4.10's in an FX4 with the Ecoboost and the max tow option.

Yes you can get the 4.10 rear end in the eco and 6.2 motors. Like I said they are rare, but I wish I had one close by to test drive.

Ahh my phone was only getting the mobile version I guess cause I couldn't choose that as an option. I didn't fully delve into it all the way though

^ $h!t Prime, may as well go 6.2L at that point. It's damn near a Big Block Mod Motor, a tune wakens that beast.
