Talking Ordered spring parts!


I can't wait! This is my spring time ordering spree. Should be here by the end of the week.

4.10s


Diff cover


And of course the install kit. Anyone looking to get 4.10s they are only $199 at summit right now. Also ordered some black lug nuts w/locks from AM. Stupid ford and their crappy lug nuts...the caps have started to fall off over the last year.

just a curiosity question.

Why did you choose Trick Flow over Ford Racing or T/A?
Are they pretty much all the same except for the price?

You won't be disappointed. Hang on and keep your arms and legs inside the ride at all times.

Sick, im going with 4.10s and an XCal2 very soon. This seems like a better deal though...

They seem to be all the same basically...Trick flow advertises that it comes with ARP bolts. My buddy installed the same set up on his 02 and is happy with it. Plus from summit it was $155 while the ford racing cover was $185. Plus the brand name is just cool.

That is a pretty good deal. I paid less than that but didn't get the bearing kit.

Did you need a replacement diff. cover or is it just for looks?

You don't need one. They're just in case you start to put slicks on the ride. It supposedly braces the housing and the bearings so they can take more punishment.

Yeah it's pretty much just a brace to help prevent blowing out your rear end.

It all arrived today. Probably won't get it installed for a least a couple weeks. Now I have to look at it everyday!

I normally buy from AM who has excellent customer service and prices but if they don't have something you want I'd check out summit racing. I'm not sure about their customer service because I've never needed it but everytime I order from there my stuff is here in 3 days or less. Their prices are good also...only thing I dislike about them is they claim free shipping but charge handling fees.
