  1. Thanks guys. It’s a crazy truck. My wife thinks it’s totally absurd. Lol. Is that tremor a separate forum? I used to post on a raptor forum when I had one but Ironically many of the guys on there hated the Shelby. Haha
  2. Thanks. Wasn’t sure if they are needed so I guess I will try it without. I had Tibron bump stops on my old raptor which helped a bit when towing less weight. (7k). I did watch a few videos on installing the air bags. Didn’t seem too hard but would clearly be easier for a shop to do on a lift. Truck does have power running boards btw. Can’t imagine getting in without them. Lol Lastly I’m not sure what you mean about boats being 8% gross.? I know the total weight of boat and trailer (10500) and had my dealer measure the tongue weight which was about 10% of the total (1000)
  3. I have a new 2022 F250 with Max Tow Package but its a Shelby build so the shocks/suspension have been modified. Id still like to do a bit of medium/heavy towing of my surf boat (10-11K) so I'm considering adding an air suspension. Is this something the Ford Dealer will do or will I have to take to a specialty shop. There aren't many/if any I can find in my area which is why Im wondering. Do any of you have suggestions?. Based on my Boat/Trailer my tongue weight is around 1000 which is way under the capacity listed in the door sill ..
  4. Just took delivery of a 2022 f250 on Sunday It has the max tow package (3 inch) I think all the 360/ have the 3. Take a look at gen y hitches. I did a bunch of research this week and purchased one today.
  5. Standard 2.5 unless you option max tow package then it’s 3.
  6. Thanks for your help. You are absolutely on the money here. I spoke to a rep at gen y and they said for this application it wouldn’t work as well because I don’t have enough tongue weight. They say you want the tongue weight between the numbers for optimal suspension. As such they recorded using an reducer to 2.5 and using the 16k flex hitch which has a tongue weight range of 1000-1700 for optimal suspension. They agreed I don’t need all the drop for this application but to ensure I can use it for all applications with shorter couplers they recommended getting the one with the 10 inch drop. For once and specific to this product having too much hitch was a bad thing but the reviews are pretty amazing as I guess it reduces 90% of the energy at of the hitch making for a much more stable ride
  7. About to pick up my new Malibu m240 with a triple axil trailer (around 11k pounds) My dealer said the top of the coupler is 24 inches from the top to the ground which sounds high to me. You may have seen on here but I have a new f250 Shelby with the max tow package 3 inch rec (rated at 20k) but with the lift/tires the bottom edge is nearly 22 inches from the ground. Photos attached I was thinking of getting one of the new gen y hitches with that shock system that is rated so well. It has a tongue weight limit of 2700 and rated at 21k. It can drop from 3 to 12 but based on what the dealer is telling me I would set it at 0 or maybe 3 which seems odd for a lifted f250. What am I missing here? The only other thing I was thinking is adding an air suspension system but if the trailer is level it seems like the truck won’t squat as much?
  8. My beast arrived yesterday. More photos soon once this storm rolls through
  9. More photos to come. I will say it’s an unreal beast and absolutely stunning interior IMG_0769.MOV
  10. Thanks you guys. I appreciate the kind words. I hope my wife thinks the same but I’m not sure she’s ready for how large this beast in going to be. (No pun intended) I’ll find out in a few days and hopefully you see this in the classifieds soon. lol
  11. Anyone know of any of these will fit on a truck with a chase rack
  12. Here is the video of the truck above. Mine is the same spec/color. Im not sure the kid in the video is even old enough to have a drivers license but its a great video. They are all build on Fully loaded Lariott trucks with the 6.7L Turbo Diesel and Max Tow package so 1050 torque and around 500 hp. Tow Capacity is around 15,000-20,000 pending type of attachment. Interior is fully modified and looks as amazing as the exterior mods IMO. I can post a window sticker from Ford and Shelby if you like. Friday can’t come soon enough…..
