    Oil leak from lift pump weep hole

    I put a carter lift pump on my truck about a month before I tore it apart to start swapping the trans. Here I am 3 months later and it turned into a full restoration, but I just got it running last night and noticed an oil leak from the lift pump. Cleaned it off and ran it for longer today...

    ZF5 swap clutch line

    Finally getting around to getting the zf5 in my truck. I was going to bench bleed the slave/master cylinder, but I bought the wrong line :idiot: I got the line from bronco graveyard but it appears to be for a gasser. I think Dorman 628-200 will work? I can pick one up from Napa tomorrow - it...

    How much PAG oil in a new A/C system?

    I’m replacing the whole AC system in my 87 f250, but I can’t seem to find any good info on the amount of oil to add (and where to add it) as well as how much charge to put in it. New compressor (3 oz of oil already in it), evap core, dryer, condenser and lines. Everything from rockauto, besides...

    A/C compressor manifolds??

    I’m replacing the whole ac system on my truck, and all the parts came in today. Compressor, dryer, lines, evap core and orifice tube from rockauto, condenser from LMC. My truck had factory AC, but the compressor and the discharge and suction line weren’t on it when I bought it. Can I buy...

    CDR Delete & Catch can question

    I’m deleting my cdr valve and adding a classic diesel designs catch can. I had a buddy of mine weld a -12 bung on one of my valve covers for the catch can inlet, but I can’t figure out where to route the outlet from the catch can. I know it needs to go to the intake, but I’m not sure where...

    Wire coming from passenger ground cable??

    I’m working on replacing my battery cables with a kit from classic diesel designs. On my passenger side battery cable, there is one cut wire coming off of it and a second wire that runs into a connector that then runs into the large harness that runs along the core support in front of the...

    Rear main seal question

    Started working on replacing my rear main seal while I have the trans out to swap it, only to realize after cleaning up the plate that there is already a wear sleeve on my crank. I ordered the felpro BS40011 rear main kit, which is the one that says to install dry and it doesn’t use a wear...

    Core support fix???

    Theoretically, if I were to buy a diesel core support for a 92-97 truck, would I be able to cut off the bottom hoop and the side mounting points and weld it onto my core support? I know the way the fenders mount is different but from what I’ve seen on the forums it looks like the bottom hoop and...

    C6 to ZF5 swap

    Just got started last night on pulling the c6 out of my truck. This may be a dumb question, but what do I do with the vacuum lines going from the injection pump to the trans? Can I just cap them off at the pump, or would I need to remove the VRV?

    Front fuel tank straps

    I’m really confused here… My 87 f250 6.9 single cab long bed didn’t have the front tank in it when I bought it. Somebody had taken it out to run the exhaust right there. I finally decided to get all the parts to add a (19 gal) front tank back in, but I don’t see how these straps (second...

    87 6.9 C6 to ZF5 swap

    I just picked up a ZF5 last night for my 87 f250 6.9. It currently has a C6 which shifts very harsh and it is not great on the highway, which is where my truck is most of the time. I've browsed the forums and gotten most of the answers I was looking for, but I have a few unanswered questions...

    6.9 idi vacuum canister

    I’m trying to get cruise working on my truck (87 f250 6.9 c6) and it very obviously needs a vacuum canister… looks like somebody tried to fix the rust with duct tape. I ordered a new canister on eBay and I guess I didn’t look closely enough, but it’s smaller than my original canister and the...
