    odometer reading?

    Well I went to get some measurements and noticed that both springs are missing the rear clip. I’ll probably use that U bolt idea for now! Also, what is this bar in front of the rear axle? None of my other trucks have it.

    I think this may be the issue.

    odometer reading?

    Well it doesn’t have enough to to spin the wheels and I haven’t had a chance to do any towing yet. Do you think the springs could be worn?

    odometer reading?

    If things slow down at work enough where I can get home before dark I’ll rig up my I phone. I know the PO has busted the driveshaft which is why I was wondering if it’s something I need to be concerned about.

    odometer reading?

    As far as the rear end raising in hard acceleration, is that normal? There is no bounce or shudder.

    odometer reading?

    Also, whenever I gun it from a complete stop it feels like the rear raises several inches. I know the PO recently replaced the drive shaft so could it be the wrong size or should I be worried about axle wrap or something else?

    odometer reading?

    I traded my dodge along with some cash for this 1993 F350 4x4 7.3 N/A automatic. It runs great but I need to replace the front bearings/ball joints at some point and flush the brake lines. The odometer shows just under 70,XXX miles. I don’t think it could be the actual mileage but do these...

    My 1985 F350 Lifted CC diesel dually build

    My lift kit came int yesterday! I also went ahead and got a 2 ton hoist and rotary hammer from Harbor Freight. I’m working 6 days a week and Sunday I need to get my wife’s car on the road so it may be a little while until I have time but next I plan on removing the rear spring mounts and...

    My 1985 F350 Lifted CC diesel dually build

    I got a bed up in Charlotte last night after work. The fiberglass fenders will need to be replaced eventually but with a little bit of silicone, they are still usable for now. All the lights and tailgate need replacing but I only paid $150 for it and it is solid and other than a bit of minor...

    My 1985 F350 Lifted CC diesel dually build

    Eventually I will get springs for the rear and go with a bigger lift. I just need to get it on the road for now. The axle I am using has the nuts on top. Is there anyplace y’all recommend or stay away from when getting them or does it not really make a difference.

    Over on FTE I found I just need to bolt all the 4x4 brackets to my 2wd frame - some cutting but no welding needed! (Dry weather and time still needed though lol!). I ordered my 4” rough country lift kit and it should be in later this week. I know for the overload springs I will have to get...

    Finally some progress again! Today I picked up a 1987 F250 4x4 reg cab 6.5’ bed frame with a running 6.9, T19 and transfer case! I’m thinking of splicing the from the the 4x4 frame to the 2wd frame with a Z or Sideways W style template for maximum splicing surface and then reinforce on both...

    Rear Axle Question

    That was originally only the dually cab and chassis if I remember correctly, I don’t believe DRW pickups came 4x4 from the factory until the superduty.

    Building a better db2

    http://www.trucktrend.com/cool-trucks/1206dp-twin-p-pump-cummins-race-engine/ Someone did on a Cummins 6bt. Sorry to change the direction of the thread, it was just something random that popped into my head!

    Building a better db2

    I just know 4 cylinder p-pumps were mass produced for cummins and should be cheaper and easier to find than a 8 cylinder p pump

    Building a better db2

    I know it would be hard tuning, but has anyone ever done a twin p-pump setup from two 2 - P7100 pumps from Cummins 4bt engines? I would think that if you could make them belt driven it would be doable. (This is just a random idea of mine so if I’m missing something, feel free to fill me in!)
