    F350 front driveline questions.

    Do you work on T-cases? How can you tell it's a 1330f yoke (whatever that means)? I have the other one on another TCase. Is it OK to use impact to remove/install yoke, or can you damage gears inside? Is there special impact socket to do this. All mine are two fat to fit in the yoke without...

    Trouble finding fuel sender for early 90's E-350.

    Check gas tank depot. I heard early 80-86 senders were hard to find, but they had them.

    80-91 stripped steering wheel nut threads options

    If you have tilt without slop, I might fix it. The aluminum in housing gets wallowed out and you get slop in the wheel. Presumably they get wallard out from yarding on the wheel pulling ourselves into the truck. Likely ones from the wrecker will have slop.

    Looks pretty for the old pos category. Good find. Now you'll have a big truck to haul food water guns and ammo;)

    F350 front driveline questions.

    Do all F350s with Dana 60 high pinion kinpin front axle have double cardone front drivelines, or can we use single cardon driveline? I'm asking for F350 with stock height (which I think is 3" blocks)? Curious as I'm running into some issues with front yoke of the BW 4407 in my swap. Driveline...

    Fuel issues?

    What would it mean if it fired right up and then died? My brown truck started doing this when starting from front tank.

    Knocking after injector change

    Hmmm. You can't Crack the injectors while you're moving g. If you increase rpms while not moving g do you hear the knock? If not maybe your newfound power broke something loose like a carrier bearing or something.

    Knocking after injector change

    Check the oil and make sure you dont have fuel in there or anything wierd going on. I found an issue by feeling all the injector lines while it was running. One of them was pulsing/ vibrating. Turned out the line was bad. Also heard people say to Crack the injector line on at a time and see...

    Project Little Foot

    Got some time to work on the truck and get driveline to the driveline shop. Got measurements for driveline so shop will start on then next week. New senders came and went in last week. Resistance looks good but gages still read read empty. Going to fill it up and see if they move. They only...

    Gear indicator fix? (automatic tranny)

    Great to know I can replace it. I got a broken cable on a cluster I'd like to use. Cable snapped in half. Or the guy wo got the column and spedo(with tach) broke it. Add it to the list of projects I don't have time for.

    Project Little Foot

    Contacted drive line shop and got them measurements they will need for the new drivelines (I did a BW 4407 transfer case swap). Gonna be out of town till Friday, so I'll need a pass for a couple days ;). Those BW4407s are super stout, so I'm hoping it will outlast the rest of the drive train...

    Project Little Foot

    One thing that I thought was wierd was it ran really smooth. Like a gas motor. No rattle rattle rattle clack ckack clack like my other 86. Didn't let it run long cause I got a lot of little stuff to button up. Just wierd. Seemed to run good. Will timing make it run really smooth? If it's...

    Project Little Foot

    Got the truck running today. Fired up relatively quickly after fixing all the fuel leaks and broken glow plug controller. The wiring diagram that shows the two connectors (Old style and new) and how to modify the pinout is good and working.

    Random surging while driving

    Had the exact same type of symptoms, but much less frequent when I first got my first (86 see avatar) IDI. Turned out the truck had a racor water separator (that I didn't know about) and filter was really old. Once I replaced that, never saw the issue again.

    Project Little Foot

    Got a cheap gauge and a plug at napa. One of the plastic caps was leaking so fixed (replaced) that with another I had laying around. Having the fuel guage and knowing that's what the input of the injection pump is seeing is great. Now I know the injection pump is getting 3 to 4 lbs of...

    Value of early 90s idi dually with blown motor

    Found out it an automatic. That and not having the 4 doors (only extra cab), and no four wheel drive mean it has to be a great deal for me to pull the trigger. These prices are running, or with blown motor? Re-reading, I think that's just for the transmission. You sound like you sell a lot...

    Value of early 90s idi dually with blown motor

    It's a 92 with the extra cab. From what I can tell body is straight and interior is fair.

    Value of early 90s idi dually with blown motor

    If 500 is a steal what's fair? Seems like you could end up spending a lot to get it going. On the upside there is a turbo. Not sure if it's stock or not.

    Value of early 90s idi dually with blown motor

    Been on truck restriction so long I don't know what these are going for. Don't have a lot of details. I'm in the foothills around sacramento ca. As values depend on geography. Don't have many details yet. Just hopping to get ballpark. Free to 500 bucks? Or are they going for more.

    Project Little Foot

    Fuel gauge it is. Need to do some research and figure out a good brand and how to connect and survive engine vibration (maybe some type of quick disconnect like an air hose).
