    Has anyone gone to 3.73 final drive?

    I'e been looking at the two options of 4.10 and 3.54, one is great on the highway, the other is best for everything else! Has anyone spent the money to move over to 3.73? It' a bit of an average closer to 3.54 with a little better pull out power. Or, I could just keep 2 sets of axles around...

    Super duty seats, low back?

    I came across some super duty seat instilations and liked the concept, not so much the one piece design. Then I found this. Black seats, first collum, second row from the top, what trim was this out of...

    Rarity of crew cab short bed frames?

    My welders and plasma cutter were among most of my tools to burn last October so bolt on is easier, but I'll need at least a new welder soon to build a goose neck trailer or two.

    That would be a good deal! And I could bolt everything right on.

    Best ip and injectors for towing?

    When I purchased my duramax exhaust I chose magnaflow after reading that they don't have drone inside the cab. The only difference I saw was the 4" drops down to 3" inside the muffler and back up to 4". After looking at that and wishing I got the 5" I was thinking of getting a 4" over the axle...

    Best ip and injectors for towing?

    It isn't about speed, faster injection pulses for better atomization and burn earlier in the combination cycle. I had to edit, somehow I keep adding extra words?

    Best ip and injectors for towing?

    I have a few to choose from but it will probably be a 7.3 with a banks sidewinder and studs, that engine needs a good going through and head gaskets anyway. I was debating an air to water intercooler later in the game

    Best ip and injectors for towing?

    I was tiniking of a larger pump turned down for quicker injection pulses, but reading the website the bull moose isn't recommend for towing. I was also wondering what injectors would be a good choice, moose misters have a good name, are they the best choice? It will have a typ4 cam and...

    Same modifications for 4x2 to 4x4 conversion?

    It looks like these guys have nice modified bracket setup at a reasonable price, I'd say that would be worth the money for a better ride. https://www.skysoffroaddesign.com/collections/ford-78-91-front-suspension Any input on changing the pads between the spring packs?

    Same modifications for 4x2 to 4x4 conversion?

    I am looking at a 94 cc dually auto that I might buy to convert to a 4x4 zf5, I have 2 transmissions left and some parts, 2 full 4x4 chassis really. An f250 and an f350. I found a complete 4x4 frame for $200 but I also read that you can modify the 4x2 frame to bold up to 4x4 leaf springs, in...

    Torque wrench suggestions?

    I have 2 tool kits, a $300 craftsman kit I paid $150 for, around two hundred something pieces 301 piece HF kit, current coupon price $150-160. Both kits are made in the same country Feel, quality, selection, hands down the HF kit takes it.

    Torque wrench suggestions?

    I have an old snap on clicker wrench I picked up in a pawn shop for the price of a good lunch the better part of 20 years ago, and last year for some reason I needed 2 at once, I think I wanted a quick cheap way to check it's calibration same day so I picked up a cheapie digital HF adapter that...

    E4od, bullet proof rebuild kit?

    I tore my transmission down down longer ago than I will admit in public, at the time I purchased a rebuild kit from Napa auto parts thinking it would be a temporary solution before a zf5, I changed my mind and want room stick with the auto. In diging around there isn't much information on...

    Who has Stans Headers?

    It has been a long time since I checked in here, hopefully soon I can get my e350 ambulance back together, it needs transmission assembly and a front drive axle, if anyone has one lying around that could come in handy! I had intended to use a hypermax van turbo, however in thinking this won't...

    Should I Buy This IDI?

    I don't want to disrespect No_Spark in any way, but I'd like to point out that he does a lot of buying and selling so the fact that he bought it and resold it is quite normal. He does know his diesels and I'm sure will give an honest opinion of the condition of the truck.

    OBDII programer for my my for 6.5td

    I'd like to get reasonable power from my '96, and no, the factory 175hp/350tq isn't there, so the first step will be a good crossover pipe and 4" exhaust, but I need to reprogram the computer it seems. I have read Heath Diesel has their stuff together, but it looks like $500-600 and a custom...

    Water injection?

    I think I worded that poorly, you will see the biggest gains on mechanically injected diesels that are the most inefficient, there have been some claims of all hydrogen vehicles but it seems documentation is a little fuzzy and it is all shrouded in secrecy but using HHO as a catalist in diesels...
