    What new radiator to buy?

    I was going to pull the trigger on a 4 core champ but wound up repairing my factory rad. Shop I used was called Active Radiator, I believe its a franchise and they are scattered about the country. Might be worth a look!

    Fleetguard Red Coolant

    I run Peak Fleet charge in my 92 with the brass rad.

    update- tone ring was damaged. I replaced it and it fixed the speedo. However, I still get the OD light coming on when I reverse uphill (my driveway) and cut the wheel to back onto the street. Soon as I put it in drive, the light goes off. gping to replace the MLPS next.

    Trans cooler mount

    Finally got around to replacing my radiator core support while I was waiting on parts to rebuild the rear end. I bought a Tru cool transmission cooler to upgrade the smaller one that came on the truck and the thing is a monster. Not as big as the 6.0 cooler, but it should be a significant...

    Same here. Little intimidating but it’s pretty simple stuff once you get started. I’m guessing the clutches wear down and no longer keep enough tension on the guides. Odometer has 317k so who knows what was done to this rig before me

    The metal was from a clutch pack guide on the limited slip. Waiting on parts now.

    I’m able to get a good look at the pinion bearing and it’s intact. I’ll look again this week but I'm leaning towards a retaining clip for the clutch pack slipped out and got mangled. I’ll keep ya posted

    There’s just too much metal to be from the worn bearings. The bigger piece is there is concave. Someone has suggested it might be a washer from the spider gears or from the LS clutch pack but everything looks intact

    Certainly an option at this point. What a pain in the ass lol

    Sterling 10.25 blues

    This is the first I’ve been in it since I bought it a couple years ago. It’s obviously been neglected. What are the chances the pinion bearings look like this? Driver side differential bearing is shot, passenger side looks new. I still can’t figure out where the metal chunks came from. A...

    Sterling 10.25 blues

    I’m kinda piggybacking off my post about chasing an OD light in my 92 F250. Popped off the differential cover to check out the tone ring, which looks like it has a couple burrs on some teeth. Found metal chunks in the sump. I’m guessing this is what damaged the tone ring. Ring and pinion look...

    I think the rear is due for a fluid change so I’ll just get messy this next weekend I’m off. I have a sneaking suspicion that the tone ring might have damaged teeth.
