2002 Ford F-350 on 2040-cars
Silvis, Illinois, United States
If you have any questions feel free to email me at: stephensrrenteria@britishlions.net .
This is my 2002 F350 XLT crew cab long bed. The truck came from California and is 100% rust free. Truck has been
stored winters in a heated shop and never been in snow or salt.The current photos posted are before i clean the
truck up. I want to give an accurate depiction of how it looks on a day to day biases as i drive it. Truck has been
meticulously maintained. Oil changes have been done every 2500-3000 miles using only motor craft oil and filters.
The truck goes through a complete service every winter. I personally remove the wheels clean everything check the
brakes, grease the caliper slide pins, inspect the u-joints and check the wheel bearings. The truck rides on a
fab-tech 4-link 8 inch lift with brand new 37 13.50 20 Toyo open country mud terrain tires. The tires are on forged
center-line wheels.Truck rides so much better with coil overs vs leaf springs. There was some bump steer with the
lift installed so i did a crossover steering kit from PMF with a redhead steering box , new Ford pump,lines and
hydro booster. The truck handles much better and has no issues turning the tires. The track bar was raised at the
same time to keep all of the geometry correct. When driving the truck exhibits much less body roll with the raised
track bar and tracks flat through corners. The engine runs perfect and uses no oil. All of the fuel and oil lines
have been resealed with o-rings from diesel o-rings.com. There are no leaks or drips. The turbo has ben replaced
with a Garrett GTP38R ball-bearing unit with a ww2. Also installed is a EBPV delete pedestal and flange.The turbo
spools much better. The transmission shifts flawlessly and has had regular flushes. There is some shudder under
take off and is related to the 2 piece rear drive shaft angle. I have a shop that will build a 1 piece shaft that
will solve the problem. I did not find it annoying enough to warrant going that route. There is a 6 position tuner
along with air intake exhaust and Isspro gauges. The exterior of the truck has genuine Ford 08 and up tow mirrors
05 Headlights and ridged led driving lights with rigid bracket kit.The paint is clean and is waxed regularly. There
is normal wear and tear, stone chips minor dings ect. Again 100% rust free. I have a set of fender flares to go
with it, also a set of PMF pinch weld covers.The AMP Research steps work flawlessly and are a great product. the
interior is near perfect no rips tears or stains. the sound system is all high end components.I did nothing cheap
on this truck. The truck runs and drive perfect needs nothing.the only item that does not work properly is the
isspro trans temp gauge.I believe it is the AMP box for it but i have yet to diagnose it. If this is a major
concern i will have it working.

Bill Ford wins National Pond Hockey Championship with employees
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Who says executives aren't people? This past weekend, Bill Ford, executive chairman of Ford Motor Company, and a group of employees trekked up to Eagle River, WI for a few games of pond hockey. Team Ford took part in the 2014 Labatt Blue/USA Pond Hockey Championship, capturing its fifth title in the 50+ Tier 1 Division.
"It feels great to win," Ford, who plays on the team alongside other Ford employees, told the USA Hockey website. "It was fun to play [River Valley Pioneers] because they're great guys and we play them every year. We finally beat them, which we were due. It was a very clean game, a tough game."
The FoMoCo team managed to score seven goals to River Valley's two, and went undefeated in all five of its games during the tourney. Take a look below for the official press release on Team Ford's win.
2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.
Ford ditching Microsoft in favor of BlackBerry QNX for next-gen Sync?
Mon, 24 Feb 2014Ask the average consumer - at least, those who follow the goings-on in the automotive industry - which carmaker they'd most closely associate Microsoft, and the answer you'd most likely get would be Ford. The Blue Oval automaker, after all, was at the forefront of bringing Microsoft technology into cars with its pioneering Sync system, and, though reality didn't turn out as such, Ford's CEO was recently touted as a potential future head of the Redmond-based software giant. But that relationship, according to the latest reports, could be coming to an end.
Alan Mullaly kiboshed the idea of leaving Dearborn for Redmond, but more importantly Ford is tipped to be ditching Microsoft in developing its next-generation Sync system. In its place, Ford is expected to partner with BlackBerry's QNX division.
Now, before you go balking "BlackBerry?! But they're finished!" consider that QNX is (or at least was) an independent entity that Research In Motion (as BlackBerry's Ontario-based parent company was then known) just happened to have bought back in 2010. QNX provides control systems to everything from nuclear power plants and UAVs to automakers like Audi, BMW and Porsche.
