My Magnaflow 16616 came in and I got it installed. It was a pretty simple install except for getting the old exhaust off. It looks cool and sounds great. Better pics to come.

My Bilstein F4-BE5-B317-T0/F4-BE5-B316-T1's finally came in. I got the rears installed, didn't even have to take the wheels off. My buddy is doing the fronts on Wednesday at his shop. Bye bye front spacers. On Friday I have an appointment for a front end alignment then I'm done for a while. I'll detail it and put up some good pics.

Nice build... I was looking at doing the Motorcraft E-fans off of a 2010 F150. What size fans are those? I really hate those probes that stick in the radiator.. Wish they had a better setup.. I will be going with the UD pulleys as well.. Look forward to the rest of your results...

I found a better set-up instead of the probes. You can read about it here: https://www.f150forum.com/f4/motorcr...cs-vid-114646/

My fans are 16". Blown Ford did the 2010 F-150 fans which you can read about in that thread. He also used a different controller set-up then my DC set-up.

I found that Derale made different probes.







In my truck:

I've cleaned up the wiring since this photo:

Sweet stuff so far! May I ask how much the "e-fans" help? Also, that tire "in the bed" thing is flipping sweet! How much did it cost(?), and can you take the rod out or flip it over (like a goose neck)? Very cool, need one in mine.

The e-fans were $429 but I probably have another $100 in it with the Flex-a-lite tube and upgraded probes. I also did the under-pulley.

The Tiregate bed mount was $170.00 after shipping. The rod comes out so you can still use your bed. The extra tire and wheel will set you back a few more bucks.

What did the fans do for you, gains? Oh and for the extra wheel and tire, I kinda got that already

To free up a some extra horsepower and hopefully get some MPG gains. Still waiting to see if my mileage has gotten better. It also makes your ac blow better.

Throttle response is noticeably better. I'm still getting 10-12mpg. No change there.
