    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I really wish I could find one of those 3 speed brownies. Better yet, a two speed rear end that would work with an old ten lug superduty. The brownies are out there, like Bigfoot, but I don't know that they ever made a 2 speed rear end for light trucks.

    Jesus Freak, drop an IDI in there to bring this back on topic.

    89 7.3 do with transmission issue

    Sounds as if maybe you lost power to the transmission controller? Any one know what fuse to check? I think Ford called that the PCM?

    That sounds like the kind of thing you'd rather not find out.

    Cup holders

    That one looks kinda blocky. Edited to add: we've been using a cardboard box between the seats in the ambulance.

    Where are you finding that 4 pod gauge mount?

    A 460 with 4.10 rear end? You'll be able to pass anything but a gas station.

    IDI return line caps - aluminum 6061!

    I've gotten a few sets of Dregs' return caps. They're great, no complaints. He only makes them intermittently, so it's great that there's another source for metal caps that are actually right. Folks, if you install a set of these aluminum caps, post up some pictures!

    How old was that Walbro? Sounds like I should keep a spare in the truck that uses one.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I've got so many projects, and so little energy. That replumbing is one I hope to get to this summer, among dozens of others. I'll definitely take some pictures.

    That yard with the bullnose peeking out looks a little like my yard. A quonset, surrounded by junk.

    It's good to have that light working, it's flashing the only indication you have of trouble approaching with the factory controller.

    Is there a current source for a pre-bled clutch master-slave cylinder kit?

    This is my daughter's truck. I'll have her get the two cylinders, and I'll get the hose from Russ Repair, since it looks like someone is carrying on the business.

    Is there a current source for a pre-bled clutch master-slave cylinder kit?

    I accidentally posted this first in the tech articles. Is there a current source for a pre-bled clutch master-slave cylinder kit for an '83 F250 with the 6.9 and the T-19 (?or maybe -18?) transmission? I can find the cylinders and the line, but I'm not finding anything that lets me be lazy!

    87-91 F Series Headlight Connector Replacement and Relay Mod

    Do we have a source for those connectors and pins/sockets?

    What she worth?

    Nero can tell you what's right and what's wrong with it. If one of us buys it, it won't be a pig in a poke, and that's worth something, too.

    What she worth?

    Prices are going up because the counterfeiters in DC keep printing more funny money. I agree with the consensus here, $6k-$8k would be very reasonable for a solid runner that's not a project. That body looks better than most of my rigs.

    Kbenz I'm not sure what I'll use for lines, might just go with rubber fuel hose on barbs. It lasts for years.

    rotary fuel pump

    I started putting in electric pumps when I got tired of replacing garbage mechanical pumps. From here on, when a mechanical pump dies, I'll stick in a USA made Walbro.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Plan is to plumb the tanks to a brass 6-way valve mounted under the cab floor, then through a prefilter and filter to a Walbro pump, all mounted on the frame. That'll let me take the stock filter out of the engine compartment. I can straighten out some damage to the front of the bed before I...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Fired up the brown truck, it sputtered and died in the driveway. The tank was 3/8 full. I filled it up, and it started and ran great. Guessing that means the showerhead broke off in the one tank that's still hooked up. I need to pull the bed off and fix that fuel system right.
