    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Close enough:D. Yeah the taurus had to run so I could get to work for the week. The big blue one will get going soon enough. I am hoping to get the starter turning the motor by thanksgiving. We will see. I just want it right instead of fast.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    The part that stinks is it used up most of my weekend fixing the car instead of getting the IDI closer to being back on the road. It's close

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I used the tailgate to hold all the top of the motor intake parts of my daily driver (a Taurus- goes by Bodacious) because I had an injector take a dump. While I was that deep into it I changed the coil packs and plugs( already had bought them) Running like a top. Fromto I know, I know wrong...

    Pretty sure it is this one. My power has been out for about 15 hours due to someone careless driving(knocked out the whole town) but I will confirm tomorrow

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I honestly don't know off the top of my head. It looked the same as the stock one, but I still have the packaging so I will look at it and let you know. It was what the rebuilder mechanic included in his service

    I couldn't drive mine yet but I did wear this around yesterday. After voting of course. They wouldn't let me wear it in to vote.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Sorry to hear that about LMC. I will admit the last time I was in there they acted put out that I hadn't called my order in ahead of time. I have had good luck with parts but my many previous visit the staff was pleasant but never mentioned I could save by calling ahead. I am glad ya found what...

    How far from Lenexa are you? LMC truck will have what you need. If you call ahead and place your order they take off 5%. (It's my happy place) :)

    10.25 Sterling, How Bad is too Bad

    The spacers are hit and miss on the 10.25. Some need them and some don't but the are included so you would have them either way. I ended up needing to use them. One thing was I needed to get some longer grade 8 bolts. Other wise the bolts from the drums would have worked. Only thing I have an...

    10.25 Sterling, How Bad is too Bad

    Thank Josh! MtnHaul I ordered the Ruff Stuff kit through Complete Preformance. It bolted right up no issues. It is for single rear wheel only though. It comes with weld on brackets for the brake lines but I made some that I could clamp on. You have to cut and reflare the hard lines. If I where...

    10.25 Sterling, How Bad is too Bad

    Put it all back together. Fresh gear oil and the new cover that has a drain plug so it is a little more service friendly. Thank to everybody that had input for me. I thought I was good to go, but it is good to hear some confirmation that it is

    10.25 Sterling, How Bad is too Bad

    You are exactly correct IDIBRONCO! Josh_Bear they are still wrapped in plastic because I just pulled them off the delivery truck and put them in front of the truck to see how they looked but I had to leave the wrap on them incase I had to send them back :)

    10.25 Sterling, How Bad is too Bad

    Yes sir. Not noon to 1 o'clock, maybe half of that I think the bearings are ok, no rough feel rotating them and everything looks to be as they were made. No missing parts and no big metal in the oil. Only "dust" for lack of a better word. I was leaning towards cleaning it up and lubing it up...

    10.25 Sterling, How Bad is too Bad

    I popped the dif cover off last night and there was a fairly thick sludge layer ad the bottom but it didn't look like it had any debris in it. Looked more milk shake like, like it had some water intrusion at some point. I sprayed everything out with parts cleaner cleaning out all the gunk in...
