    Kalashnikov's Tow Pig and DD build thread

    Once of the main reasons I originally got into diesels and IDIs particularly is their tolerance for alternate fuels. Back in mid 2011 I needed/wanted a tow rig crew cab diesel F350 that I could daily. I searched for a few months originallyl ooking for a stroke and ended up Getting an 89 F350...

    Sold my 89, bought an 88

    So I sold my 89 F350 XLT CCLB 7.3/E4OD a couple weeks ago. I just happen to find an 88 F250 xustom 7.3/ZF5 RCLB truck that someone was gonna send to the scrapped so I figured I'd but t since the price was cheap. Turned out to be a good deal once I saw it in person. My guess is that it has been...

    Think I found where my oil is going

    So in the past 6 months my oil problem has gone from adding a couple quarts or so every month or a few weeks to adding a gallon or two every 60 miles or so depending on how fast I drive on the highway. The truck also starts like shit after ruling out everything else. New GPs, good relay, new...

    Mechnicsburg, PA to MA or storage

    There are approximately 10 shelters with approximate weight of 650-750lbs and dimensions of 68x86x48. It may be less than 10 but not more. If someone could possibly deliver to MA that'd be great or if you could store them for a while, maybe a few months, that be great too. Outside storage is...

    Picked up a 95 Stroke last night

    Picked this beauty up last night. The guy's mechanic said it needed a CPS and the bolt was stripped. Iwas originally going to trailer it but with my trailer being out back in snow and twisting the ears of my inner and outer axleshaft last week I decided to take a chance and fix it on site...

    Fuel Mileage VS Timing

    Well, I put new injectors, turbo IP, and electic lift pump in my 89 N/A back in August. I was running 40s for a while with stock 3.55s and I was getting what I thought was about 9-9.5 MPG doing probably 60/40 highway/city. I run a 50 gallon tank in the bed and I had only run it completely full...

    14.5" G Rated Trailer Tires

    I bought a New Holland 28' fifth wheel flat bed trailer back in the summer. I think it's an 89ish. Anyways, it's got brand new tires but one of the beads got bent badly on the Dayton wheels. While I was hammering on it I noticed the tires are "G" rated but only have a capacity of 3030lbs. The...

    Ordering Gauges

    So I'm going to order my gauges. Going with Glowshifts figured I'd see some opinions. For me 93 IDI turbo ZF5 I was gonna go with EGT, boost and not sure on the 3rd. The PO installed oil pressure gauges already and volt and water work on the cluster. There really isn't much fuel pressure with...
