    Weight of 89 7.3 whole truck

    Thanks for the replys, I messed up the weight requirement, its 3999 lbs, the current weight stated on the title is 4013, thats why I thought it could be close to the cheaper rate, from the replys its not likely to come in under 3999lbs.

    89 regcab E4OD with heavy pick up style bumper. Registration is due, I can save $75 if the weight comes in under 3099 lbs. Anybody have some real time weights? Thanks

    visual difference between 1st gen and later?

    Thanks for the replys, it's the 98.5 electronic I need to ID or more exactly have my female non mechanic cousin recognize. Is there a non mechanical tip off to a 98 being mechanical or electronic like a manfacture date or VIN number? If I need to have her look under the hood is there something...

    visual difference between 1st gen and later?

    How do I tell the difference between the 1st generation and later models? Do all the post 1st gen models have electronic engine controls? Thanks

    80 HP pump and injectors, fuel economy?

    The 92 I'm dealing with has what are called 80 horsepower pump and injectors, I don't know what that is exactly but they are aftermarket bought mods. I'm way more concerned with building in fuel economy than power, do the so called 80 hp mods suck fuel?? Thanks

    Front bumper strong enouph to be towed?

    Are the front bumpers strong enouph to attach a tow bar for towing the truck 50 miles across the county? The mounting bolts look a little marginal in size for the job. Any experiences? Thanks

    Cross member removal for pan access?

    Has anyone ever removed the pan crossmember to gain access to the pan or crank? Then the crossmember could be bolted back in place? Thanks

    JRED, thanks for clearing up the all external for me, I've been having nightmares over that issue because i like manual trannys only; and still hunting for one.

    Isn't the hydraulic slave housed inside the bell housing?! Impossible to service without going thru the motions of a clutch job, ugh! I'd take manual linkage or exposed hydaulic parts any day.
