    4wd conversion questions.

    Thanks for the replies guys. From what I can see the hardest part about the front end is going to be the lead hangers. Going to have to drill new holes for them, and weld the fronts. Seeing as the 2wd trucks are coil front end. Also- turns out the truck is actually a short box, so I'm going to...

    4wd conversion questions.

    Hey fellas, I'm sad to announce that I rolled my old Idi....and it's time to move on. I've found a new truck to start on and I've got a few questions. My Idi was 4wd Dana 60 swapped standard (zf5). Manual transfer case. Lucky everything underneath the body survived during the crash so it's all...

    WANTED: Lund cold front inserts (grille inserts)

    Why would that kill my water pump? I've ran them before without any issues... Do you mean that just because the water pump will be working harder? And I have a brand new motorcraft thermostat I just installed, and a brand new water pump..it's not about maintaining running temp it's about warmup...

    1992 f250 washer pump replacement

    Hey fellas....looking at some guidance in replacing the window washer fluid pump. Managed to stead one off an f150 (same year) so I'm hoping it's the same? If not no big deal I'll go buy a new one. It was quite difficult to remove the pump from the f150 parts truck, and was wondering if there's...

    7.3 IDI NA boost opinions?

    Ok so with the max fuel screw apparently maxed....and with the torque screw threaded out about 3/16" and the Wastegate capped, I'm pushing 10max it seems. That's when I really get on it. Not as much smoke in higher Rpms but **** does it ever dump it I hit it too early....cleans up around...

    7.3 IDI NA boost opinions?

    Hey guys, I've got the IP open right now and the adjustment screw doesn't want to move....I'm scared to put more torque on it in fear of damaging the pump? I don't remember these screws being to stiff? Thoughts?

    On a seperate note- does anyone know of someone who has experience timing these engines here on Vancouver Island? I wouldn't mind doing it by the books at some point....would love to watch and learn.

    7.3 IDI NA boost opinions?

    That's the impression I was under? I thought that the stock Wastegate setting on these idis was 7-8 therefore not allowing more boost without modification regardless of fuel supply?
