    Rust free 94 F250 IDI, Nice pictures on ebay sharp !

    The auction ended with no buyers, so I guess no one was "willing to pay". To me my idi's are worth a lot more than the market as well. BUT I vehicle is worth the market price. Just because some idiot some where decides to put a ridiculous price on his doesnt make it worth any more.

    Project Big Red

    no offence but you guys are crazy! I own 3 of these trucks right now. None of them have any of the issues you guys are so expertly fixing. No bends, no rust no broken supports. Whats my secret? I live in Arizona. And mine arnt special, they are a dime a dozen. If I were you I would have sold...

    If I was to get a newer Ford Diesel what is the year of choice?

    I dont think you have ever owned one. The turbo is very slow to spool up, and mine never got more than 15 mpg on the Hwy. My idi making the same run every week gets 22mpg. 6.0 can be a good engine but you will need to invest about 4K to fix all the issues.

    Messed up vacuum pump pulley

    so, I cut the pulley off with a grinder and bought a new one. $22.00 on ebay. The problem is the shaft on my pump must be ground down some. The new pulley slides on very easy, and even has some play in it. What the last guys did was stick the bolt in to hold the pulley on, but because of the...

    Messed up vacuum pump pulley

    I dont have a camera here at work to take a pic, but on my f350 there is a 9/16 bolt threaded into the vacuum pump, presumably to hold the pulley onto the shaft. My pulley has taken to wobbling and today threw the belt (at which point I had no brakes, but that is a different story). I took the...

    Messed up vacuum pump pulley

    How do I get the bolt out that holds the pulley on. The pulley is loose, and when you turn the bolt it just turns the pump with out loosening??

    Crew cab short bed brick nose....

    What you say may be true, BUT my shop used to be next to a mechanic. He had a guy come in there regularly, that had a 95 6 door truck. It basically looked like a crew cab with an extra back potion grafted on to it. It also had a long bed. I talked to him at length, and he swears he ordered it...

    Crew cab short bed brick nose....

    What I have found is Ford built or commissioned a whole bunch of stuff that was never very official. The crew cab is called a centurion edition which was a company that made 4 door broncos for awhile. So maybe they ordered these with a crew cab on a short chassis. Who knows? I did call my son...

    Crew cab short bed brick nose....

    The bed that came off of it was shorter than the bed on the extra cab, and the two trucks pictured have the same wheel base. Not sure what constitutes a "short Bed".

    Crew cab short bed brick nose....

    Something is really screwy with the site. I did both posts the same, and yet 2 very different results. Hopefully eveyone can see the pics now. Van

    It looks like this will work if I do one pic at a time. Lets see.

    They work for me. I am not sure how else to add a pic. Sorry.

    Crew cab short bed brick nose....

    Here are pics of the two trucks I measured. As I mentioned it is hard to see that the flat bed was a short bed, with the long flatbed on it. BUT the wheel base is exactly 156" or 13 ft on both trucks.
