You guys remind me of my friends in my happy years and how much fun we had hanging out together in our shops

@electricsmith1650 Месяц назад

Thank you! It’s the best of times and I don’t ever want it to go away!

FYI, Sky's does sell a larger kit that does include the adjustable panhard bar and shocks. For the more basic kit they do mention the panhard bar lower on the page in the 'Recommended Parts to Accompany Your Shackle Reversal' section.

Yeah I just wish it was in same drop down options as selecting your lift size and if you want it powder coated. Cause it’s definitely something you can’t really go without.

What springs did you go with? I was gonna reverse shackle with 99-04 Super Duty springs for my 97 f350 7.3. Told this combo gives you the best ride for OBS trucks. What you think? Stay with stock leafs like you did?

@electricsmith1650 4 месяца назад

I have another buddy that went with the super duty springs and he said he didn’t notice much of a difference in ride. It still drives like a one ton truck. The super duty springs are also a lot longer so the leaf hangers poke out past the frame. It kinda looks like you have a plow kit up front and I wasn’t a fan of that.

@montanasnow406 3 месяца назад

Just future tip, getting the track bar back on is extremely easy with a 2nd person just turning the steering wheel while your under the truck to slide the bolts in.

@electricsmith1650 3 месяца назад

Good to know! I don’t think the stock bar would have worked still however.

@montanasnow406 3 месяца назад

@electricsmith1650 no, I had to upgrade to PMFs adjustable track bar when I did my RSK.

@arro5393 10 месяцев назад

Awesome video, hope your channel continues to grow! What did you use to paint the RSK?

@electricsmith1650 10 месяцев назад

Thank you I appreciate it! Just used the tried an true rust oleum rattle can 😂

@andrestephanou3636 3 месяца назад

Awesome video, what code super duty leafs did you run with the 2.5in kit? V codes?

@electricsmith1650 3 месяца назад

Thanks man! I just went with the factory leafs. Super duty leafs are longer causing you to need a different kit. They also don’t fit well with the 6.4 bumper, lots of trimming required!

yo just a quick comment during your commentary like talking exlaining wht your doing no music video would be a hell of alot better nice truck tho i love the old schools

@electricsmith1650 11 месяцев назад

Seriously appreciate the input! I’ll definitely take note of music volume. Explaining while keeping the entertainment up is always challenging.

@lemonade5996 7 месяцев назад

Was that the 2 inch or the 3 inch shackle kit?? Love the video btw and i really like the 20s but the obs rims are sexy too.

@electricsmith1650 7 месяцев назад

It was the 2” kit (technically the 2.5”) Thanks man! The factory wheels go on in the winter! I need some wheels with lower offset now because factory wheels rub on the leafs now

@marrsbar27 Месяц назад

Nice obs, how do you keep those tires from destroying your paint. I don’t see any mud flaps.

@electricsmith1650 Месяц назад

I don’t 😂 it’s pretty chipped up

Looks good how is the bronco fairing

@electricsmith1650 11 месяцев назад

Bronco has been in hibernation for a while unfortunately. Been battling ignition issues, it’s on the list, soon!

@jasondobson5252 11 месяцев назад

@@electricsmith1650 that sucks.I like to say thanks that bronco swap really help a lot with my swap ,85 bronco with 01 excursion axels. Used the sky 5in kit.

Good to hear man! I appreciate the support!

@user-ee5sg7zz8b 4 месяца назад

How much better is the ride with the RSK vs original setup? is it worth it?

@electricsmith1650 4 месяца назад

As far as ride quality goes I don’t notice much of a difference around town, still feels like a one ton truck. But it’s an insane difference on the freeway! I’ve never had a one ton truck ride as good as this does on the freeway now. I think it was worth it, especially in the looks department.

@phelans9251 8 месяцев назад

How does it ride with the original not superduty springs?

@electricsmith1650 8 месяцев назад

Still drives like an OBS except on the freeway now. Buttery smooth on the freeway!

@joshrj711 4 месяца назад

Can you use this kit for a 2 wheel drive? It’s a 97 7.3 also. 2017 front bumper?

@electricsmith1650 4 месяца назад

I’m not sure if you can tbh. 2008 front bumper!

@MrJustoelcamino 9 месяцев назад

Hows the ride difference?

@electricsmith1650 8 месяцев назад

Honesty it only drive better on the freeway. Any other driving it still feels like an OBS

What type of radio is that?

@electricsmith1650 5 месяцев назад

It’s a very cheap BOSS single din with a 10” screen. I’m not happy with it, one day I’ll save up for a name brand one.

@stephenhans189 4 месяца назад

People don't understand compressor maps . Lower AR NUMBER will spool faster make more useable HP .

@electricsmith1650 4 месяца назад

The factory turbo was a 1.15 AR exhaust housing. Dropping to a .85 AR made a huge difference! especially with a manual, really helped build boost between shifts.
