    Hi fmiser and welcome to Oil Burners! Your manual hubs will lock when turned CW and unlock when turned CCW. You have a vacuum leak if your defrosters are always on.

    Anyone hotshot trucking in an IDI?

    When I finally got my 1972 F-250 4X4 I dropped the tail gate and threw my Cross Bed Truck Box into the bed. I scratched the bed all up and dented the front of the bed. I said "nothing to worry about now...".

    Alternator putting out low voltage/injector replacement

    YES you need an upgrade 3G alternator. Your truck has more electrical load than you think and the current alternator is NOT keeping up with the load(s).

    92 Ford 7.3 IDI Project Truck D.O.A.

    First off, replace BOTH batteries at the same time. What you have is one BIG battery in two places. The older battery might kill the new one soon. I don't remember the company that makes manuals for Ford. They are available for download. It is not Chilton or Hayes manuals...

    Correct wheel adapters?

    You might re-think this. Re-drilling the current rotors will weaken the casting around the holes and could lead to the rotor casting failure. I would not mess with the rotors unless you have the knowledge and tools to to do this work.
