Replace the OEM head bolts in your 2008-2010 Ford 6.4L Powerstroke with the XDP X220 Series Head Stud Kit XD3004HS. Upgrading to these head studs helps avoid the common head gasket failure issues that arise when you start adding more horsepower and torque to your Super Duty.

The 8740 Chromoly Steel construction with an added proprietary element is more durable and will not stretch like the factory bolts. The threads are rolled after heat-treating to provide optimum fatigue strength.

These heavy-duty, reusable head studs are rated at 225,000+ psi tensile strength and 205,000+ yield strength to ensure better clamping force under higher combustion pressures to help prevent a lifted cylinder head or a failed head gasket.

In addition to the increased strength, replacing the factory head bolts with studs also allows you to obtain a more precise torque reading. A conventional bolt gets twisted as it is tightened, so it's reacting to two different forces at the same time.

With a stud the force gets applied to the vertical axis, resulting in a more even clamping force. These studs are a must-have for high-horsepower applications and are reusable, unlike the OEM Torque-To-Yield (TTY) bolts which must be replaced after each use.

Another benefit of studs is they provide for easier engine assembly and proper alignment of the cylinder heads every time. For a hassle-free installation, each set includes installation instructions. Assembly lubricant sold separately.

Features:
Includes Washers & 12 Point Nuts
Yield Strength 205K psi - 215K psi
Tensile Strength 225K psi - 233K psi
Threads Rolled After Heat Treatment
Reusable Studs, Unlike TTY OEM Bolts
10mm Studs Test Out At Max Load Of Over 120KN
8740 Chromoly Steel Construction With Added Proprietary Element

Tech Tips:
XDP Thread Cleaning Chasers (Sold Separately):
The XD40127TC (for head studs) and XD40128TC (for inner row bolts) are a great add-on that will be critical during installation. Thread Cleaning Chasers are an excellent tool to have on-hand to ensure you have properly cleaned the threads in your engine block before the installation of any fasteners. Clean threads provide accurate torque readings and will help give you peace of mind during your engine build or head gasket repair.

XDP X-TRA Slick Engine & Fastener Assembly Lubricant (Sold Separately):
The use of XD541 is highly recommended during engine assembly. Apply XDP X-TRA Slick Lubricant to head studs, head bolts, main studs, main bolts, connecting rod bolts, and any other fasteners used during engine assembly. Using a proper assembly lubricant during fastener installation reduces friction and torque pre-load scatter in the torquing sequence, while also helping to prevent thread galling and seizing.

Fitment

  • Will this fit my truck?

    The Fits section at the top of the page lists the manufacturer's applications for this exact part. If your year, make and model is not there, or you are not sure, text us a photo of what you are replacing with your year and engine and we will confirm it before you order.

  • What if I order the wrong part?

    Call or text us before it ships and we will swap it. After delivery you have 30 days to return it in new, uninstalled condition. The return policy has the restocking details.

Shipping

  • When will it ship?

    In-stock parts usually ship within 1 to 2 business days from warehouses across the USA. The stock line under the options tells you the status of the part you are looking at. Large items ship LTL freight and we call to schedule delivery.

  • Why did I only get part of my order?

    We ship from multiple warehouses, so an order with several items can arrive in more than one box. Tracking for each shipment is emailed as it goes out. Full details in the shipping policy.

Returns and warranty

  • What is the return policy?

    30 days from delivery, in new and uninstalled condition, with a restocking fee. Everything is spelled out in the Returns & Refund Policy.

  • How do warranty claims work?

    We are an authorized dealer, so the manufacturer's warranty applies to every part we sell. Call or text us with your order number and we handle the claim with the brand for you.

Paying

  • Can I pay over time?

    Yes. Shop Pay installments are offered at checkout on qualifying orders, and the monthly estimate shows right under the price.

  • What is a core deposit?

    Some remanufactured parts, like injectors and turbos, carry a refundable core deposit. It is shown on the product page when it applies and refunded when your old part comes back to us.
