yep but this polish also has a whole lot better reputation in the efi world for the kit so far .

talked with 1/2 a dozen guys with it and love it . 1 guy has just 120 miles on it aand already at 12 mpg and its still learning . the same guy also said he should have just skipped fitech and sniper and went straight for the edelbrock pro flo 4 from the start .

my kit cost 100 extra to get the tablet for it as i dont have tablets or smart phones.

even started tweeking the unit around for my already plumbed fuel line setup . also added my autometer fuel pressure gauge sender so when the tablet is not on i still know what i have .

Twin stick off a 4500/205 eh? I recently pulled the twin sticks off my 4500/205 setup cause I thought I was going with a 4l80 setup. Called ORD, they said take it off, send it back and they would send me a new one for th400/4l80. The new one is a floor mount, which I love because it works with any setup because it doesn't mount directly to the trans/T-case. ORD is awesome!

sweetk30 · 02-14-2019, 12:34 PM

yep ORD is super people and service .

this rig has about all it can get from ORD on it for the mods and beef up parts in the budget .

steering box bolt in brace
twin stick kit
braided brake lines
4" shackle flip kit
HD-front shackles
master poly greasable bushing kit for front leafs / rear leafs /shackles both ends
zero rates in the front and axle forward 1.5" to help clear firewall area
crossover steering kit
rear shock brace kit to keep from braking the frame and mounts
i am sure there is more i forgot .

then 3/8" thick plate diff covers from ruffstuff and diy4x for the 60 front and 14ff rear

diy4x front and rear u-bolt spring plates
ubolt flip in rear with the diy4x plates

custom 6061 aluminum 1.5" body lift

4" tuff country hd front springs with ORD zero rate .
22-547 stock replacment 56" springs rear with few leafs pulled for softer ride and 4" ORD flip kit .
ford shock towers front and longer shocks all 4 yellow monroe shocks

this is just the few big items

sweetk30 · 02-14-2019, 05:53 PM
