    Transmission leak? Picturs to follow......

    Rear seal not a big deal to replace though expect to get the wrong part at least once or twice from the parts house and/or dealer. just use either a 3 jaw external puller on a slide hammer or a large seal puller and it'll pop out. Installation of the new one is easy I use one of my large...

    Glow plugs

    please tell me you're pulling the injectors for some other reason other than to do the GP's if you're just working on the gp's then you do not need to touch the injectors.

    97 F350 Trans problem

    the OD light flashes b/c of an error in the trans The hard shifting is a result of the computer putting the trans in what is called "limp home mode" which gives you very hard shifts. Take the truck to a competent shop that can pull the trannycodes. Unfortunately autozoo and the free scan...

    throw some mothballs out around where you park to keep the critters away. you'll need to replace every 3 or so months or more frequently if they get rained on.

    Front rotors on '96 F-250 4WD

    for the F350 which I think will apply for the f250 as well that the rotor & hub are a pseudo assembly. Some places sell them as an assembly however they are easily seperated your lugnuts hold the rotors to the hub. To remove you will have to dissassemble hte hub completely. You can use a...

    Radiator hose?

    I can say that I replaced my hoses on my '95 last sept when the truck was 9 years old the hoses were the factory parts w/ aprox 150k on them. They were in good shape and still rigid. I replaced them only because I had to replace the waterpump. For hose clamps if you're out to spend extra...

    Looking at an Excursion

    There's nothing really wrong with them. I have a custom conversion that's essentially the same thing except w/ the body style prior to the superduties. The earliest 6.0's are somewhat of a gamble as you'll find about 50/50 that love & hate(d) their early ones. Plan on spending some money on...

    galvanized tank and diesel fuel

    My truck has a glavanized bronco tank in it and has for the past 10 years. When centruion did the conversion that's what they put in for a fuel tank. I've had no fuel system problems other than a fuel pump that went bad after 150k(normal). I have seen problems w/ WVO in galvanized tanks.

    Best place to get new injectors

    Dualie, When I sent my injectors to bean they did tell me that some of my poppet valves were out of spec and those were corrected while they had them. In all honesty give BDP or Swamps a call and ask them directly. I've found that when I expected to get non-answers I got straight answers...
