    Slow crank

    Ok so maybe it is just the batteries. I left it on charge for about an hour and I went out to take a video to show and of course it starts just off the bump of the key and the first round of glow plugs... so idk maybe the batteries had good voltage but not able to push enough amps? Or like we...

    Slow crank

    That was the next thing on my list of upgrades. I dont know the last time the starter had been replaced so it very well could be.

    Slow crank

    Mine were also. They were dry rotted, cracked and corroded on the inside. But yesterday I replaced every single battery cable with a set i bought from cdd

    Slow crank

    The starter engages but it turns super slow for a trun or two the the starter just stops and clicks like its trying engage and spin. Basically like the batteries are not pushing enough power. The batteries are new and according to the charger the voltage is good and they are charged.

    Slow crank

    I replaced the battery cables yesterday and i scrubbed every ground with baking soda and wire brush then cleaned off before installing the cables. Are there any other grounds I should check other than ones on the cables that go to the block and chassis?

    Slow crank

    Most times all lights come on as normal until the key is turned to ign. Then the gloplug relay comes in and everything in the truck dims and when going to crank it it'll try to crank maybe turn once or twice really slow and then it just stops and starter repeatedly clicks as if its dead then...

    Slow crank

    My truck has been intermittently cranking slow for a short time or not cranking at all and the starter will start clicking while trying to crank. I replaced both batteries and cleaned the cable ends and helped for a bit then started up with it again even though the batteries are reading good...

    What would you get?

    What brand of gauges do you guys recommend? I just bought a 4 pod pillar and currently have the banks dynafact egt and boost gauges that come with the banks kit. Having a hard time finding something that matches the banks gauges so I might just swap them out for another brand to match

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I really dont hear much of a difference. The Sony may have been just a little clearer but not really noticeable. It definitely gets alot louder and has a pretty good eq.. the main reason I put this one in was for the backup camera. Its really hard to see backing up at night with the crew cab...

    A/C conversion woes

    You shouldn't need a different evap then what came with the truck. I bought the one specific to my year truck and like i said it still wasn't a perfect fit but the lines connect no problem. Evaps are all micro channel so it doesn't matter what year its from it'll work with any refrigerant. Same...

    A/C conversion woes

    I also used butyl tape and red rtv to seal the hvac box and stuffed a little extra butyl in where it would not seal completely. Blows ice cold and doesn't lean any air now

    A/C conversion woes

    Did my whole ac system a couple months ago and had the same issue with the evaporator. Rock auto doesn't have the correct variation of it or they just dont make it anymore. The bracket for the accumulator is in the wrong spot and the wrong size. I drilled the rivets out both old and new brackets...

    Electric fuel pump recommendations

    Thanks you. Ive been leaning towards the dura-lift, but most the threads I could find were pretty old so I wanted to hear some more recent experiences

    Electric fuel pump recommendations

    Anyone have any recommendations for e-fuel pumps? I've heard mixed things about all the e-pumps out there as well as terrible quality mech pumps. I'll need a new fuel pump and I'd like to rid of the possibility of the mech pump diaphragm failing and pumping fuel into the crankcase, as well as...

    I think I'll keep my 7.3 as long as I can!

    Yeah it doesn't look bad. Just use some p&s carpet bomber. It works pretty good in my experience. Especially if you've got a carpet cleaner.

    I think I'll keep my 7.3 as long as I can!

    Steering gear swap

    If anyone was curious. Here are a few of the threads I had found... https://www.fullsizebronco.com/threads/my-4-bolt-swap-cost-nothing.484057/ https://www.fullsizebronco.com/threads/my-4-bolt-steering-box-swap-yes-you-can-reuse-your-existing-hoses.455561/...

    Steering gear swap

    From what I've read for the newer ford super duty box swap. If it's the early SD box it'll bolt right up and you either have to have hoses custom made or you take the old brass fittings out of the old box and put them in the new one and that'll allow you to use your original hoses. Because newer...

    Steering gear swap

    Thats really all I'm wondering. I need a new gear either way. But I just saw a couple write ups on bronco forums. And it seems fairly simple other than new/different lines needed. But if it doesn't make a considerable difference i wouldn't waste my time and just go stock lol

    Steering gear swap

    Anyone here done a 4 bolt steering gear swap? I think they're 97+ then they changed slightly mid supre duty. I've read on some other forums guys with bricknose broncos bolt gears from 1999-2000 econoline vans right up. Ill be redoing all my steering linkages as well as a new box. Just wanted to...
