How to Install a CFM Air Intake System on a Ford F-250
August 31st, 2010 by adminIn the race to manufacture parts for the latest and greatest, some of the older diesels like the Ford 7.3L are often overlooked when it comes to after market parts. Not to worry, we carry a wide variety of modifications and air flow improvements, including the intake manifold we have replaced here. As the video mentions, the stock cast unit is one piece, and transfers heat from the turbo outlet to the supposedly cooler intake air. The new two piece design separates the two, while increasing air flow and density. This particular brand is currently not available online, but feel free to contact me in regards to this excellent upgrade.

Jeff Upgrades His Ford F-150
August 19th, 2010 by admin
I started lifting trucks when I was 17 in my parents’ driveway. I started with a 1991 Ranger, installing a 6-inch Superlift kit and 3-inch body lift with 35-inch tires. I then sold that and graduated to an ’86 Toyota. I put about 12 inches of lift on it with 39.5-inch boggers.
My desire for a full size truck put me in my current truck: an F-150. It has a 6-inch Pro Comp lift with Bilstein shocks in the front and Rancho RS9000 Reservoirs in the rear. I went with Pro Comp for the solid reputation of reliability, since the truck is also my daily driver. I added a 3-inch Performance Accessories body lift because I had to have 37-inch tires. I see so many trucks with 35-inch tires and I wanted to stand out a little.

Adding a Pro Comp Leveling Kit to Level Marcos’ Tacoma
July 23rd, 2010 by admin
Hi, this Marcos again here to tell you about another adventure. This time I am going to discuss my choice in picking a 1-1/2 inch front Strut Spacer kit.
The Pro Comp leveling kit was ideal for me because of my selection in tires. I put beefy aftermarket tires on my truck that were rubbing on the inner corner fender wells at full left and right turns (and when reversing too). But because I have aftermarket wheels with different backspacing (which did not help), it was time to fix the problem.

K&N Air Filter for Marcos’ Tacoma
June 25th, 2010 by admin
Hi, my name is Marcos and I am the proud owner of a 2004 2 wheel drive Toyota Tacoma. I’m here to share all the goodies I have outfitted my truck with since I bought it nearly seven years ago.There are two reasons for purchasing a K/N Air Filter (which I must say is the best investment ever) part# 33-2050-1 and cleaning kit: it’s easy to maintain and it pays for itself after two cleanings! Today’s price for a replacement filter goes for $16.99 (for my truck). I calculate that on the average I clean my filter at least three times a year ($50.97) and I have had my truck for seven years ($356.79). Do the math for yourself.

K&N Filters Increase Ray’s MPGs
June 9th, 2010 by admin
In 2004 I bought a gas saver: a 2004 Toyota Corolla. At this time, gas was skyrocketing and I needed to save gas, so I looked into an air intake system. I looked at aFe and AIRAID but the one that caught my eye was K&N Filters.
I remember the company from when I was a kid; I’m older now and these guys are still around.

Hypertech Max Energy Power Programmer Increases Fuel Efficiency
June 4th, 2010 by admin
After adding the rims and tires on my truck I noticed a bit of my power was gone due to the size and the weight of the rims, and my speedometer was a little off too. As we all know, there are tons of programmers and chips out there that promise more horsepower, torque, and fuel economy. I used to own a 98′ Chevy Tahoe and I had a Hypertech Programmer III on it. I was really happy with that unit back when I owned that truck. It was very easy to use and make changes with. The only thing I didn’t like about it was the fact that it was really bulky.

Wes Makes Upgrades to His 2003 Ford F-150 2WD
June 3rd, 2010 by admin
I started working at 4 Wheel Parts back in 2007 when a friend who did sales here told me about the job. I mainly got into trucks because I needed transportation for my dirt bike when I was active and owned one.

Axle Gear Upgrade for 2007 – 2010 Jeep Wrangler
May 24th, 2010 by adminWe have just run into a 2007 JK Jeep oddity. When looking to do a gear upgrade on your Jeep, be aware that not all 2007 JKs have Dana 44 rear axles. There are a few that have Next Generation Dana 35s with 4:10 gears from Chrysler. They are easy to spot because the axle cover has a different shape than a Dana 44.
Currently there are no gears, axle shafts, or lockers available for this Jeep. Since they are in such limited supply in the United States, it is doubtful any manufacturer will spend any time or money to make upgrades for them.
