    cab corner plastic interchange

    I did a search, but couldn't find it. Has anyone put 1995 or so cab corner plastic in like an 89 truck? I'd like to get the speaker mounting location. It all looks similar, but the top shoulder belt mount seems to stick out on the newer plastics, vs on the old it's flatter. Might just need a...

    Storing an engine

    I picked up a 7.3 engine from the neighbor that's completely taken apart. They had it in their shed for 15 years or so. It's not in awesome shape anymore, but how do you store it for the long haul? Block and crank are probably my two biggest concerns. They currently are wrapped in plastic bags...

And if there isnt' should there be? I'm wondering if I have a dirty hydroboost and was looking to add a fitler. Or...

    Don't run Sketchy Bearing locks

    Running around saturday and almost lost the front hub off my 89 crewcab. Overall no damage, just my pride. The bearing retainer looked sketchy when I did the brakes and swapped locking hubs a few weeks ago so I ordered new ones, but hadn't put the new ones in yet. That was a bad choice. I'm...

    So I had a tick and white smoke last weekend. Truck was running weird. While I was trying to fix that I came across a couple other things. 1. Change your fuel filter once in a while is what I learned. I was doing the old ATF filter trick and when I pulled the filter to add ATF found this...

    Tapping noise and white smoke Thinking fuel system

    On the way to work the 89 started ticking and blowing white smoke out the exhaust. At idle it's running rough also. So based on the white smoke and running rough I'm thinking fuel system. Bad injector probably? I'm not thinking valve train because it isn't running consistently rough. It kind of...

    Painted some flares

    So I painted some flares for my crewcab. I'd just done a set for another guy and figured I might as well do mine as I was setup for them. I'm pleased with how they turned out. I still need to do some two toning on my truck before I install them. 1. Cleaned with Waterborn cleaner 2. Scuffed...

    Starter solenoid on Starter anyone replace?

    Hey I've got a starter that spins great, but doesn't work. It will click. It's not the fender solenoid, because the backup starter works flawless. Does anyone change just the solenoid on the starter? It appears to be the SS331 solenoid. Solenoids like 38bucks. New starter is like $110. so...

    fuel line one way valve?

    Anyone ever thought about putting a one way valve in the fuel supply line on their truck? I recently had a fuel heater leak and wondered if a one way valve in the fuel line down under the cab would have prevented the fuel draining back thus requiring repriming? I'm still running a mechanical...

    Pitman Swap, Is this right?

    Swapped pitman arms on my crewcab tonight. Anyway I got the job done but got a question. Is the pitman arm on far enough? The arm didn't seat as far as the original arm. The nut is fully engaged on the threads and is torqued to 170ft-lb per the book. I couldn't get my impact on it without any...

    wtb 92-94 air duct for air cleaner

    I'm looking for the air duct at bolts to the radiator support above the drivers side battery and feeds air to the air intake. I'd like the duct and hose. Would be great if it was off a 93-94 factory turbo, but a non-turbo piece should work just fine also. Thanks Jeremy

    Used ZF-5 speed, Question on checking condition

    I picked up a ZF 5-speed from behind a 460 Last weekend. I have a couple questions before I start rounding up parts to put it in. I also got the transfercase behind it so i'll probably be asking about how to check it out also. 1. How do I tell how good of shape it's in? Without running it can...

    Walking by the drivers rear tire on the crew cab the other night and noticed a loose lug nut. Then noticed all of them were loose. No clue how long they've been loose, but glad I caught it when I did. So check your Nuts! I'll be putting on new wheels studs and a different wheel. Oh and checking...

    So I was looking at switching my t-19 4-speed over to sythentic gear lube and started reading about guys running 50w engine oil, 15-50 engine oil, GL-1 gear lube etc in the transmission. And Novak adapters says not to run sythentic in the t-19 because it's a waste of money. So what oils are...

    Blower motor air flow 92-97 vs 87-91

    I'm nerding on my a/c blower motor and how much air they put out through the vents. My 93 seems to put out way more air than the 89. Now both of them have new a/c evaporators and new ford blower motors. Also both of their a/c boxes have been recently cleaned. So where I'm going is they are both...

    Turned up the Fuel and time it, I should a done this earlier!

    So tonight I adjusted the timing on my truck to 9 degrees. It is really quiet now. It was at 12 degrees when I initially checked it. I also turned up the fuel screw two flats. That really made a difference. Definitely seems more responsive. Egt's climb a lot higher now also. It hit 700 degrees...
