    What's a good aftermarket gauge cluster?

    Do you have a build thread? That is awesome

    coach wood trinkets

    That's getting parted out?? That would be one of the cleanest IDI in Michigan for sure. Hopefully someone saves it

    coach wood trinkets

    I've always wanted them, very hard to find though. Here's another one with a very nice center console (at least it was when it was new). Pretty cool mirrors too. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1518391-western-hauler.html

    WTB winch bumper

    Some good pictures of how they mount to the frame and the winch plate would be sweet, I’ve been debating fabbing own mount but haven’t been able to find any good photos of how it gets mounted up. This thread has some great pictures of the old WARN bumpers mounting but you’d need a heavy duty...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Almost got it back together. The engine is all done except the return line that goes down the trans, fan bolts and fluids. Got caught up with the core support bolts since I snapped the nuts off when I was taking the core out, and now I can't re use the threaded washer. Hopefully I'll have it...

    Radiator mount threaded washer

    Hello, I'm almost done swapping my engine but have come to an unexpected issue. I snapped the core support bolts when I took off the core support because I figured it was an easily replaceable part but from what I've seen it's pretty pricey. Is there a source on the threaded washer? LMC doesn't...

    Where to find info on air conditioning install?

    I've got what I think is every part needed for a/c off of a parts truck, but I can't really find any info on adding a/c to the truck when it didn't come with it. Do the Haynes manuals have details about how the system works? Haven't picked up a copy of my own yet. The main things I am worried...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    It cost me a pretty penny but I had my starter rebuilt by a specialty semi-truck shop and couldn't be happier http://starterman.com is the place I used, but they're all the way up in Anchorage

    Spotted this funky van chassis conversion (Centurion?)

    Here’s another weird one, not sure if it’s IDI or not though. Custom Van/boat/motorhome

    Found on FB marketplace: Cleanest IDI in existence? $9500

    https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/691046628233234/?ref=search&referral_code=undefined Factory turbo. This thing looks fresh off the showroom floor, I am seriously impressed by how clean this is. Look at that bumper! 2WD is the only downside.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Engine is in, but I still can't get my transmission in... down-pipe giving me lots of issues. Should I pull engine and trans and assemble, then install those two together? I didn't expect getting the transmission in to take so long, very discouraging. If I can't get it soon I'll probably have to...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Got my *** kicked by it today. Engine is in place for the most part, only 1/4 motor mount bolts are in place at the moment, need to get it squared up. Also, I cannot get the trans to slide in for the life of me. Anyone know a secret? I have the tcase on, using the 800lb harbor freight trans...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    My engine swap drags on.... tried and failed to get the engine in today, couldn’t get both the turbo and motor mounts to fit. Had to walk away before I got too mad lol. I have the trans partly pulled which should make it easier. That’s my dads Baby blue 1971 c10 under the sheets, it’s a...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Lots of progress today, I don’t know what I’d do without this electric impact ! Just need to do the motor mounts and yank it out. Let’s hope I’ve got all the bolts I need on the way back in edit: just got an email from the head of testing at ZF asking to buy that transmission I had so they...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Getting the truck ready to swap the motors. Doing the easy stuff tonight. I sold the e4od that came with the engine for $250, so I’ve almost broke even. After I sell the t-case, TC, starter, radiator and steering box I should come out ahead on this and I’ve got a spare wiring harness now(I count...

    Ugly coolant out of oil cooler, do I need head gaskets?

    Yeah it’s not great... gonna look in the other passages as best I can, but like I said all other coolant has been bright green and the engine has been free from sludge deposits as far as I can tell, so I’m not too discouraged. Glad I caught that

    Ugly coolant out of oil cooler, do I need head gaskets?

    It just keeps getting uglier, the sediment formed a clay that completely clogged one side of the cooler. I’ve never seen anything like it Just gonna use the oil cooler from the other truck
