    84 6.9 idi NEED HELP

    From the looks of things the IP cover was pulled with the pump. Going to have to remove the front timing cover to insure everything is lined up correctly. I would see how freely it turns over and go from there.

    6.9 idi 2wd t19 driveshafts

    You have left out way to much information for anyone to give you a answer. What style of cab do you have on the truck for starters. 2 piece driveline? Your best bet is to measure what you need for this truck. Rear wheels must be on the ground when doing so, slip yoke on the rear shaft should be...

    So What Did You Do With Your PSD Today?

    Was having trouble with my 99 starting in park and going all the way into park when stopped. Was talking to my brother yesterday and seems there are 2 torx screws up under the dash on the linkage that like to come loose. Sure enough they where tightened them back up and thinks work right now.

    The heads where famous for cracking. bottom end was not any to strong neither. One real problem with them and the gas engine was not playing close enough attention to how far the valves extended past the end of the valve or spring retainer cap when rebuilding, where by causing them to drop a...

    7.3 to 460

    If a automatic , transmissions are set up different , converter , shift pressures. And you really need a complete engine, everything.

    Oil Pump Gaskets

    Metal to metal on that, IIRC very few engines use a gasket on the oil pump.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    This what happens when you don't confirm your flip ball is locked in place. Had a Goose neck trailer on and was loading my manlift, come up then back down to make the hole. Lesson learnt always double check to make sure is locked in place. Did not make me any to happy, but could of been worse...

    C6 to T19

    Cross member may, driveline don't think so. what you can do is measure total length of both units that will give a good ideal. C6 will have a slip yoke on rear and T19 will have U-bolt flange. so still thinking no.

    Swapping pushrods with a different motor?

    I don't know if for the 6.9/ 7.3 but for a lot of engines you can buy over and under sized pushrods so after head work or such the lifter plunger can be centered in the lifter. This may be the case with the E-bay ones.

    Swapping pushrods with a different motor?

    Nope. LOL When I use to rebuild those where two things that got replaced a lot.
