The goal was simple: take what we learned from developing our 2008-2010 6.4L Powerstroke upper support bar and apply it to the next generation 2011-2016 6.7L Powerstroke.
A little over two years ago we dove headfirst into developing our 2008-2010 6.4L Powerstroke upper support bar. Since then, we've been developing more products for trucks and the Powerstroke platform. With every project, two points ring clear. First, Powerstroke owners need a truck that can be powerful and reliable above all else. Second, nothing destroys a heat exchanger faster than flex. We can add as many safeguards against core stress as we want, but if the radiator core is constantly being pulled apart, something's going to give.
The 2008-2010 Super Duty had a notoriously flexible frame that destroyed stock and aftermarket radiators alike. The frame rails of the truck, the foundation of its strength, were allowed to move independent of one another thanks to a comically flimsy upper support bar. The stock 6.4L upper
