Upgrades and Aftermarket - 6.0L EngineUpgrading or adding OEM or aftermarket equipment to your 2003-Up Super Duty or Excursion with 6.0L Power Stroke diesel engine. Please confine discussion of topics in this forum to those items that are specific to the 6.0L Power Stroke engine.
I am getting my new 6.0 this February. I want to put a few extras on it like a lift, biggger tires, power module and exhaust. These will void my warranty though right? I need my warranty. What can i do to my truck that won't void the warranty?
Thanks,
R.F

A cat-back exhaust system is the only think I know of that will not void the warranty. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]

You'll find lots of information about that here by using the "search" feature.
In short, modifications can not automatically "void" your warranty. Warranty claims can only be denied if the damage or failure was actually caused by the modification. And even then, only that damage or those parts relating to that damage can be denied warranty. Your entire warranty certainly can not be voided.
Read your warranty carefully. Mods are ok...and fun. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
THanks alot for the info. My dealer didn't really want to tell me much.

Other then the chip nothing you askabout will void it and like i was told today it really is up to the service tech to turn you in. but they have had some problem resetting for tire size if you go to big
i just went up one size to 2.85 with a better off road
tire for playing in the sand
the one working on my truck today was taking to me about a chip. but agreed the first step was exhust then intake.
I amgoing to start the changes in the next month or so after I sell one of my sandrails here
the first step will be monday and a base line dyno run

Thanks for the info. I can't wait to get my new truck, but i want something to make it differnet from all the rest. I was thinking a 6 inch lift, 35's and like you said exhaust and intake, and wait a while to chip it.
