    Bullnose front Recovery Hooks?

    If you feel the need for more than that red part, leave the rad support alone. Just cut the larger plate like the red and yellow together, and weld an angle to the back of the yellow part, to be picked up by the remaining two bolts. Do it this way, and you could make a "kit" to sell to others...

    Bullnose front Recovery Hooks?

    Looks to me like you would have to add an extra 1/2" or thicker shim plate in this area. To get it out away from that shackle. And be careful of bolting through anywhere that might interfere with the motion of that shackle. (You are welcome, from Captain Obvious. LOL) Get longer bolts for all...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    It's raining hard here. Has been for more than three weeks. Occasional respites for a few hours, then right back to hard rain. On two days, I have seen actual sunshine for an hour or so, in the past month and a half or so. I don't remember ever seeing 65 or above, here, yet, this year. I...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I haven't seen 60 degrees in weeks. 54 right now. Highest it's been in two weeks. We are supposed to hit 60 by thursday, though. River level is the highest it has ever been at this time of the year, as well, because of all the rain.

    I hate you right now. LOL We are STILL having the coldest, wettest spring and early summer on record. I have TWO heaters going!

    Transmission shop near Yakima? (or Puyallup)

    I'd run that atf through a filter and dump it in the fuel tank.

    DIY Glow Plug Harness -> no "wait to start" light

    Franklin beat me to it. You have high resistance right there in that connector. In my opinion, (Which is probably worth every penny you paid for it. LOL), you have instead, an easier POINT of failure. Take that harness apart, and solder those connections, and try again. I'm betting your...

    Motorcraft ZD1A glow plugs

    That plug has a spade connector. Is there an equivalent with the bullet connector?

    Leaking windshield

    I pulled the trim off. Then cleaned all the way around the windshield using a wire brush and brake cleaner. Let that dry in the sun for a couple days. Then used lexel all around the perimeter. Completely filled in the gap, and smoothed the stuff down. I don't like the chrome trim, so I then just...

    Drive shaft spins, truck doesn't move

    I changed ALL of mine over the summer. I greased every one of them with synthetic grease. The front ones got packed thoroughly. The rear ones, I just lightly greased them, in my hand before installing them. Making sure that the grease was well worked through the bearings, but not 'packed' in them.

    Drive shaft spins, truck doesn't move

    If that caused it, it would have broken right away. Once he started driving, the oil got to the bearings. Not tilting the axle from side to side after changing bearings would not have caused this. If neither of you ever changed the diff lube, and it got too low to keep lubing the bearings...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    The mirrors on my 89 are wider than the ones on the 91. Nothing like as wide as yours, but wide enough. We have a narrow bridge on Hwy 2, near index. One day, driving the 89, I was crossing that bridge when someone coming the other way, had mirrors like yours. I got as far to the right as I...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Yall are just crazy. Don't you know that's why they invented ratchet straps? And I'm OCD. I ADD the gorilla tape, to make sure the strap don't slip!

    Drive shaft spins, truck doesn't move

    Sounds like you could have gotten it home, and right now, could still park it without rolling, if you lock the front hubs and put it into 4WD.

    7.3 IDI Turbo - Knocking - Rough Idle

    That's almost exactly what mine is sounding like now! Much louder in person! Kinda scary noise. This is after I did the atf in the fuel filter trick, then replaced the injectors. I may go to town tomorrow. If I do, I may run the video on the phone for the startup, and part of the way down the...

    Another option for studs

    Took me two days to figure it out. Took you 5 more days to realize I had. Toobafors must be even smaller where you live. ;) LOL
