    Return to center issues

    Pretty sure they are kingpins lmc diagrams and parts stores list them as kingpins but I don’t know a whole lot about from axles so could be mistaken I take it as 100-250 had ball joints and 250HD and 350 had kingpins

    80cc IDIPerformance pumps in stock

    I just have a normal 6.9 ats 085 so I don’t need more fuel that stock reason I got the 90 was it’s the same price as the 70, and 80 Also the 3800 governor is a big bonus He also stands behind his products more than most sellers he has a video where you can watch him make a 90 from start to finish

    Ac compressor swap issues

    This is awesome I didn’t know how quiet a/c compressors could be, my old one it was just as loud as the motor at idle, I added some uv dye in the system last night and ran it though for 20 minutes an hour later nothing was visible I’ll have to see how it did overnight

    6.9 or 7.3?

    Pistons in my opinion are the weakest link in an idi, I’ve personally torn down 3 motors and seen them cracked or melted, can be easily avoided with a simple egt gauge Right now I’m rocking my “temporary” motor which is a 6.9 with an ats 085 I run it 8-10 psi but I did 14psi once and turned the...

    6.9 or 7.3?

    If your running over 15 psi go 7.3 anything under it doesn’t matter, cavitation is a over inflated issue and the rest of the 6.9 “problems” can easily be swapped like the rockers as mentioned
