Overview Specifications 2004 SVT LIGHTNING OVERVIEW New for 2004
New exterior color: Silver metallic Overview The SVT F-150
Lightning is a high-performance pickup truck with a supercharged
V-8 engine and performance-tuned suspension. Introduced as a 1993
model, the original SVT F-150 Lightning helped define the four
hallmarks of a Special Vehicle Team product: performance,
substance, exclusivity and value. Eleven years and two generations
later, those same hallmarks make the 2004 SVT F-150 Lightning the
best sport truck on the market. No other truck can match its
combination of 380 horsepower and acceleration from zero to 60 mph
in 5.2 seconds for under $35,000. Lightning is built in Oakville,
Ontario, Canada. Design and Equipment The 2004 SVT Lightning has
several distinct exterior features that set it apart from the rest
of the F-150 lineup. Crystalline headlamps, clear turn signal
lenses and SVT-signature round fog lamps in the vehicle's unique
front fascia project the Lightning's attitude. Complementing the
face are unique clear taillamp lenses and a light-emitting-diode
high-mounted stoplight. Lower rocker extensions, side-exit exhaust
and unique 18-inch wheels and low-profile tires round out the
exterior. Inside, Lightning has a 60/40 split bench front seat.
More aggressive side bolsters give better lateral support for
spirited driving. Seating surfaces have Preferred Suede trim with
textured Nudo leather inserts; the SVT logo is embroidered on the
backrest. Other high-performance cues include SVT-signature
electroluminescent gauges, brushed aluminum finish on the interior
door handles and perforated-leather wrap on the steering wheel.
Powertrain and Chassis A 5.4-liter SOHC Triton? V-8 powers the 2004
SVT F-150 Lightning. The Triton? V-8 is paired with an Eaton?
supercharger and water-to-air intercooler, providing 380 horsepower
at 4,750 rpm and 450 foot-pounds of torque at 3,250 rpm.
Transferring the power to the wheels is a four-speed automatic
transmission, strengthened with the same internals used behind
Ford's heavy-duty truck engines. Routed through an aluminum
driveshaft for increased strength, power is then transformed into
acceleration by a 9-inch traction-lock differential with a 3.73:1
gear ratio. Suspension and Brakes The 2004 SVT F-150 Lightning also
benefits from performance-oriented chassis modifications. Bilstein
gas-charged shocks are fitted at all four corners for their
excellent control and ride characteristics. Unique suspension
tuning also lowers the Lightning 2 inches in the rear and 1.5
inches in the front to improve the handling and give a more
aggressive appearance. The 12.1-inch, vented front rotors work with
twin-piston calipers while the 13.1-inch, vented rear rotors are
pinched by single-piston calipers. Both front and rear brake
assemblies use a Lightning-exclusive pad for improved wear and heat
dissipation. Four-wheel anti-lock brakes are standard. Although it
provides an American hot-rod driving experience, the SVT F-150
Lightning still retains the Built Ford Tough capabilities of the
standard F-150. Accordingly, the Lightning is capable of pulling a
5,000-pound trailer or hauling nearly 1,400 pounds of payload.
