    Water leaking into cab

    The duck bill is at the bottom of the hole behind that plate, if you stick a camera in there and look down you’ll see it 5-6 inches straight down. If you point the camera upwards in that hole you’ll see the cowl opening. The cowl area slopes downwards so water can drain, and it flows right over...

    Water leaking into cab

    Well I took a closer look at this today. I pulled that cover and looked around with an inspection camera, and there was some stuff at the bottom but not too much. I didn’t think it was enough to keep water from draining and make that hole fill up. I sucked it all out with a small shop vac, but...

    Another good reason to stay out of Calif.

    Have you guys heard of Edison motors? I saw some videos of them converting old peterbilts to a diesel electric power plant, and lately I saw them promoting what looked like a brand new rig. The guy seemed really knowledgeable and focused on trucks that can do real work.

    SMF Clutch kit

    I run Redline MTL in mine. I didn’t notice a difference in rollover noise going from ATF to MTL. I don’t over-fill though, so I can’t comment on that.

    SMF Clutch kit

    Same as IDIBRONCO, I only hear the rollover noise when I’m in gear and moving slowly, below 1200 RPM or so. Pretty much just parking lots and stop-and-go traffic. It is annoying though.

    Water leaking into cab

    Thanks guys, I’ll give that a try and report back. I’m glad to hear that it could be something other than the windshield.

    Water leaking into cab

    Since I patched my floorboards and replaced the carpet, I’ve been chasing and sealing water leaks into the cab. I re-sealed my drip rails that were leaking down the pillars, and I re-sealed the cowl that was leaking next to the trans tunnel. I thought I had everything sealed, but last time it...

    SMF Clutch kit

    I thought all the SMFs used interchangeable pilot bearings (as long as the flywheels are for the same year/trans, etc.) but hopefully someone else can confirm. I used the bearings that came with my Luk kit, but since then I’ve seen several people say that the pilot bearing in the kit isn’t...

    SMF Clutch kit

    I installed the Luk 07225 kit in my truck 2 years ago. The clutch that I replaced said perfection on it, so I assume it’s the same one you’re seeing on Rockauto. I did notice an increase in rollover noise with the luk clutch, but maybe the springs in the old clutch were more worn out/softer and...

    Sterling 10.25 oil leak

    It seems like the pinion seals usually leak because the pinion bearing is loose and allowing the pinion to move around. If that bearing is bad, I would just find a good used axle to swap in. That’s what I did.

    This is a REALLY smart idea!

    Unknown electronics?

    Did you cut it open and see what it looked like inside? I’d be curious as heck

    Another good reason to stay out of Calif.

    Do you guys remember when Edmund’s did some testing a couple years ago and found that you emit more emissions running a leaf blower for 1/2 hour than you would driving a ford raptor all the way from Texas to Alaska? That’s when it really hit me how clean cars are nowadays. I don’t think there is...

    Unknown electronics?

    That amplifies the signal from the water in fuel sensor and lights up the warning light on the dash. I haven’t seen one with a transparent cover, I wonder if yours got replaced somewhere along the way.

    Truck Registration

    I just paid $78 for Ohio the other day. No inspections or smog here either. My minivan was only $50ish.
