    If we can figure a way to transport it I have the 2WD zf and the clutch pedal assembly out of an 86

    Pics of early 6.9 crack around block heater?

    Easy money on both of those. Lock-stitch pin them and you're done. I've done several dozen 53 block dodges that cracked. The old IDIs are just as easy. Last one I did we used a steel plate to replace the block heater and stitch-pinned it in place.

    Looseing Coolant Issues

    I was dealing with the same issue and it was that my cap was too weak. Factory is a 13lb cap. I was loosing coolant regular with no signs. Finally got mad and bought a 16lb stant lever cap. No more coolant loss and the trucks running temp dropped 5 degrees. Win on all fronts as far as I'm concerned.

    Kill Switch: Ya or Na

    Just rigged a new setup on my service truck after an attempted theft. I now have several relays in series on two key wires. Basically first relay is just wired normally with a toggle switch. Second has a pair of wires connected to the number 87 and 86 terminals. 86 has a pushbutton to initially...

    You two can both have Ann-Margret. I'll take Sophia Loren any day. Even now she is still hot

    P.S.A. from Typ4 for those trying to contact him........

    I would say they are the Oil Burners version of Grumpy Old Men. My only question is which one would be played by Matthau and which would be played by Lemmon. I could only wish to be able to get into that much trouble when I'm in my 40s and 50s

    For Those Of You Who Have Done The 6.9 Flywheel Swap.....

    Get the clutch setup for an 87 f350 with 5 speed. What I did for one of my trucks and it works fine. All the parts are made to work on the 6.9 flywheel and zf combination. Luk part number is 07-076 and is 130 bucks from pepboys if you have one in your area.

    Coffee can throwaway

    My power steering pump is other wise occupied with it's extra capacity. I have a 5 gallon reservoir mounted on the frame and a ball valve mounted under the hood to the pressure line running to the back of the truck. I don't need anymore hydraulic lines under my hood then I already have there.

    Coffee can throwaway

    I got a small air tank from one of our buses and plumbed it as a vacuum reserve. It's maybe a one gallon tank but it is made of actual steel not some converted tin can. Cruise works great and my old vacuum boost master stops the truck with ease.

    manifolds?

    I just pulled a set off an 83 F350 that was originally from NY. Somehow the truck made it down to Tx after 10 years in the salt and was still in one piece. Reached my air ratchet down in there and every bolt turned right out. Only ones that were questionable were the exhaust studs. He's either...

    Top Starter Bolt

    I feel your pain. I've swapped 18 starters out in the last month. 10 of which were in the same truck because the guy who owns it is an idiot. Did you know if it doesn't start just keep using the starter till it either starts, kills the batteries, or fries the starter. I could have killed him...
