    FREE Engine, Tranny, and T-case

    Hmm, I'll be watching that one!

    What tranny came in the broncos?

    I believe the 89's came with the AOD, possibly the AODE. I think I'd just buy another dipstick tube, one that has the bell housing tab intact, or even have a tab welded onto the current one.

    Need T-Case info - truck down

    My '87 had an oil pump failure, it wasn't pretty. I dumped the entire case and got another one. As far as the oil pump, the problem is there is a triangular piece of steel that holds one side of the pump in place while the other spins on the shaft, causing the pump to operate. When the...

    rear window swap

    I'm sure he means the supercab windows, not the rear window.

    rear window swap

    I've thought about this, and the middle-bar windows are actually just one big piece, the middle bar is just the outer trim piece. Otherwise, I would think it would fit. Let me know how it goes.

    Turning Radius

    Well, having the TTB setup in my Bronco and F-250, I've wondered about my turning radius on the truck. My front wheels on the Bronco will turn further than the truck. I removed the steering stops on the truck, and I'm at the limit of the steering box now, or so it seems. I've still got a good...

    Bio-Diesel

    Here's where I learned: http://www.biodieselcommunity.org/titratingoil/ I didn't buy the book, but read through this site and found a lot of good information. I got my setup running very easily, and it works well.

    Which side of the key?

    So what's the point of a "valet" key if the valet can't drive it to the parking spot? Just curious about this.

    block heater problem

    Anvil, It's not a brand name, but rather just a newer setup. The solid state system was implemented on the 1987 6.9's, and used on all the 7.3 IDI's from 1988 on. You either just need to purchase the parts, or there's a kit that used to be available from International, but not sure if you...

    block heater problem

    Yeah, that's not far, we go to the springs more often than Denver. Wind is really aweful in my area too, have to bolt everything down so it doesn't end up in Kansas. As for glow plugs, I buy the Beru/Motorcraft glow plugs from Autozone, and they seem to last very well. I've read complaints...

    block heater problem

    Also, if you're glow plugs are in good shape, don't use ether, it will kill them quickly. Use WD-40 as a starter fluid, it works great.

    block heater problem

    Sounds like you'v got some glow plug issues, or a fuel system problem if it's that tough to start. Mine's hard to start, but I can get it after 2 or 3 cycles of the glow plugs, and I'm working on a solution. Even at 0 degrees, if your fuel system and glow plugs are properly working, it...

    Intaking Woofing now

    Thanks for all the advice. I got the truck to learn about diesels, and that's exactly what I'm doing. I can do anything on a gasser, and am catching onto diesels quickly. I like how easy this truck is to work on compared to my other vehicles. I very well didn't want to learn about diesels by...
