I keep telling people that the MDL tailhousing is worth every penny.. I bought a new T5Z front shift/rear socket transmission from them and I couldn't be happier.

I live in Oklahoma and have the intake heat deleted on my 98 3.0. Never been a problem in the 20 years I've owned the truck. Starts and runs fine, even below freezing.

I have 255/60-15s on the back of mine, and 205/70s up front. They do not stick out at all, but are flush with the tops of the fenders. Also, like t he OPs truck, have dual exhaust sticking out in front of the tire, no muffler.
