    FIPL fun

    It's amazing how much this little part can effect our trucks (and vans). I've had this truck a little shy of a year and it's run great but steadily it's been having shifting issues ie hard 2nd gear shifts, miss shifts, occasional unlocks at cruising speeds, etc, but not all the time. Sometimes...

    Radio visor to block the sun

    Can't hardly see my radio during the day due to the way its angled and the sun coming through the front window. Side and rear windows are tinted. Has anyone come up with a clever way to shield their radio? Some kind of homemade visor?

    Flushing rust/buildup from radiator, thermocure experience?

    Flushing rust/buildup from radiator, thermocure experience?

    My 94 has the original radiator from what I can tell and it's starting to get rust and corrosion accumulation inside, no overheating issues yet. It's the metal rad. I'd like to do some preventive maintenance and get that scale flushed out before it becomes an issue. I'm aware I may spring a...

    Dana 70 oil weight? (also, gaskets)

    I just put one in my sterling 10.25. Badass. It was a bit more spendy but so much easier to install. No leaks yet. My dad runs heavy vehicle maintenance on a farm and that's all he uses on all their diffs, he likes that it can be reused and cuts down on cleaning/prep time.

    Opening the Door

    I had to replace the cable on mine, it had stretched to the point you could pull the handle all the way up and it still wouldn't open the door. Broke 3 handles till I figured that out.

    94 7.3l valve cover bolts wicking oil

    Daughter was watching me like a hawk. Don't put that black stuff on my purple things daddy! I said well baby it's leaking we have to fix it. She pondered it and said OK, but be careful. Yes ma'am.

    94 7.3l valve cover bolts wicking oil

    Reporting out with my results. Used compressed air to blow out the bolt holes, then flushed with brake clean then blew them out again. Smeared The Right Stuff around each bolt then carefully threaded them home. Double checked to be sure the crown of the wing washers was peaked. Torqued each...

    94 7.3l valve cover bolts wicking oil

    That's all good info, thanks folks. I did check the wing washers and flipped accordingly, I'll try tightening down the bolts and see if that makes a difference.

    94 7.3l valve cover bolts wicking oil

    Hi folks, Put new valve cover gaskets on and now I'm getting oil wicking up the bolts. Only wicking on the center two bolts closest to exhaust manifold, both drivers and passengers side. Bolts were torqued to spec. Used the felpro rubber gasket as I'd heard good things about it, installed...

    Fugly but functional bench seat repair

    Just a quick write up on how I repaired my 94 F250 bench seat. I'm not a cheapskate, I'll spend money if needed but I am frugal and this truck is only used for hunting so I'm not spending bux to replace stuff. The drivers side was sagging worse than my man boobs so I ripped the seat out and...

    Changed the valve cover gaskets awhile back and resprayed valve covers. Daughter was helping me so I let her pick the color. How can you say no to your 4 y/o daughter?

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    LOL Well I kept breaking door handles which annoyed me enough to fix it. The PO had already done the bolt mod so I figured it was the cable stretched, and it was. All boogered up and the cable had worn a trench through the plastic. Figured well shoot since I'm already in here.... might as well...
