Wep...Dangit I found the part number HC3Z-2551944-FD using the VIN from 1FTRF3DT6KEC32541 which happens to be an F350. $953 from Tasca, not sure if it includes the console itself. It's about $300 more then the one I have. Shipping is a whopping $295, so this one will be pretty far down on the list, unless I can make a deal with a local dealer. This console has the Aux switches though, no sliding rear windows button.






I still have find an F250/350 without a console and a Light Camel interior and see if the part crosses to mine.

parts.ford.com never includes the whole part number so a little trick I've found is find what I think is the correct part on Tasca or ANWBL put it in my parts.ford.com cart. Then do a vin search for the same part and add it too.

If they are the same part then the quantity on parts.ford.com will show 2. I did that with the visors and it worked perfectly.

BTW parts.ford.com has this related parts feature, but it only works on MS Edge. The link doesn't work on Chrome.

Before they changed the site I use to be able to decipher any part number I wanted from parts.ford.com, now it's almost impossible to the way they have it set up.

Yeah...After the "Upgrade" this spring the site is very sketchy. For a long time it didn't work at all. Its a good way to find out if a VIN on a newer truck is in the system to then call or email the dealer for the full part number.

Yeah that's how I used to compare part numbers as well. And the console may not have the rear window slider but I'm sure you could use that console instead but you're going to have to run the wiring.

Yeah...Wiring doesn't bother me too much any more as long as I can find the right connectors.

I was down by the farm today now that its much cooler, haven't done any WOT runs in while so I broke out the VBox. Got off a new personal best. Sub 4.0 second 0-60, just barely @3.96 seconds and this was still with the 35" tires. Also has a sub 2 second 60 ft time. So the CalTrac are helping. Still don't like them and I'll probably go with something else in the spring.

Holy *****. That’s damn fast.

I think the SD headliner might be a good idea, primarily because of the upfitter switches; if my memory serves me correctly, BGG added the SD switches to his build a while back. They are very popular; every regular cab 2018 SD I’ve seen comes with the aux switches even if they’re so barebones that they don’t even have power equipment group.

It’s going to to be really weird to get into a loaded 301A truck and find that the headliner is more spartan than a bare 300A.

I know...I was bummed out about it too when I first saw it.. I'm not ready to spend a grand though to not be bummed out at this point. Never say never though.

Nope...not yet...I have a Mustang oil pump ready that I will fit with billet gear.

I'm not pushing it anything like Dorian did when broke his. He was running E85 a 3.25 pulley and pushing 20ish pounds of boost. I would guess he was running 0-60 in the very low 3 second range.

It does scare me though and I will be change it, Hopefully not too late.

Good, I hate to see your beast go down for something like that. I like the headliner idea BTW.
