    Sterling 10.25 oil leak

    My update is there is no update. Life stuff has pushed things out. Its all good life stuff. I did notice when parked facing downhill it leaks noticeably more so hopefully just the leaky seal and or the pinion nut has just backed off. On flat ground no real leak. keeping an eye on fluid levels...

    Yet another heads thread

    thanks for the info Nero. Good to know about the lifters, I had no idea it would affect clearance. Makes sense. I really didnt want tear into my freshly sealed engine! Sounds like you are close to getting things all buttoned up. Look me up if you are in the area or need a dry shop. Enough with...

    High pressure fuel pumps

    I thought one of those roof racks might be a good place for the spare. I recently swapped over to 38 gallon and have been trying to find a place other than the bed.

    Sterling 10.25 oil leak

    Much appreciated franklin2. That makes me feel a bit better tackling this. In what case would use the crush sleeve eliminator. Would that be used when replacing the bearing? Just trying to wrap my head around all this.

    Sterling 10.25 oil leak

    Thanks for the info guys! I will definitely start by checking the axle vent tube first. Read up a little more to get educated on the parts and procedures involved for a repair. I really want to have the experience of going through it but also cant afford to have the truck down while I figure...

    Trailered home a 1989 F350 dump truck that looks great on the outside, but the 7.3 IDI is something else

    I have heard of the rubber expansion plugs in place of the freeze plugs. Similar to the block heater just without the filament. Is this good info. Thought this might be another option for you.

    Love your set up. Super clean. I have a similar set up but with the R&D intake and 4in exhaust. I had some questionable readings on my Glowshift gauges as well and switched over to Isspro. Made all the diifference. I was hitting 20+ for boost. I know some have had good luck with the Glowshift...
