Warranty Information
Really nice parts but kinda bummed that it didn’t come with a sticker
Truck start and runs like brand new with these parts if your external plugs are oily like mine were you definitely want to wire in the new plugs provided with this kit takes a little extra time but was definitely worth it pick up an oem relay along with these and your truck should fire right up in the cold
First of all, Swag Performance was very easy to order from. They are really good about keeping you up to date with your order. They even messaged me of a potential packaging error that thankfully didn't occur. Everything installed like it should, but I will note some key differences between these gaskets and the OEM. The OEM gasket has an internal wiring harness that plugs into the inside of the gasket, while this has the harness built into the gasket itself. I can't comment on the longevity of this interior side of the harness, but when it does go out I will have to replace the complete gasket. That's really no big deal since the disassembly/reassembly process is the same, but you will need to keep that in mind. I really appreciate how this kit comes with OEM Motorcraft glow plugs, you need those if you want to save yourself the (expensive) hassle in the long run. This kit comes with four external harnesses and a handful of crimp connects. I recommend you take the time and solder/shrink wrap these connections since they are so vital to your engine's function. Overall I am pleased with my purchase, but the real test will be how long the gasket lasts, and if the plug-in external harnesses get as brittle and fragile as the OEM ones do.
