    Lift kits?

    My next venture with this is going to be lifting the rear to match the front, probably gonna run around with “stance” for a bit but would like it to sit level at some point later on. There is a super duty that has a massive lift on it at the junk yard close to me looks like lift springs and...

    Bronco front coil spring swap? feasible?

    I wondered the same thing about if f150/bronco lift springs would work to hold a idi up! I have a bronco and my buddy who owns a salvage yard told me he would sell me a full swap for 800$ and use his shop to do the swap in a 6.9 with ats turbo on it. I’m considering it but didn’t know how much...

    Berryman B 12 or sea foam?

    Many diesel specific additives out there that I’d rather use in the fuel. I wouldn’t recommend dumping it into the intake to clean carbon out you’d have better results giving it some good throttle on the on ramp to the highway now and again and burn it out. I know if I just putt around town for...

    Boost limits IDI

    15 psi current used to run 20 in my stock 7.3 idi non turbo block. 90cc and stage 1’s with ats 093 with banks compressor housing and 60-1 wheel and Cx racing intercooler. Timing has been in check not over advanced and I don’t just plant my foot to the floor. Cylinder pressure is your enemy for...

    Lift kits?

    Maybe was more lifts there was several superduty trucks with lift springs out there but I have a brick so that’s not much of an option, not that it can’t be done but not wanting to get that far into it. hopefully it rides and drives better after, idk about a shackle reverse kit after the lift...

    Lift kits?

    @Thewespaul only reason I’m wanting to do that is because I have a shop with a lift available to me+ air tools in a little bit otherwise I’d be using a jack and some 4x4s and breaker bar to lift one side at a time lol and bushings appear to be almost new like I mentioned the lift kit still have...

    Lift kits?

    So what if I leave it diconnected till sky’s has my drop track bar mount ready? Didn’t older trucks run straight axles without the track bars? I’m probably just gonna have to wait till next week to lift it I feel like lol

    Lift kits?

    Okay so going to order drop bracket. Other question being is it drivable in town till the weekend if I installed the springs tomorrow? Shop has a opening for me and I can use the lift for free usually I don’t get to use the lift but it’s cleared out and happens to be on my day off

    The Official "Show Us Your Ride" pictures of member's trucks thread.

    It’s a warn enforcer winch bumper. I actually have a spare one now from aa parts truck I’m gonna use on my bronco possibly, my truck was in a accident and it totaled a car and no damage to my bumper at all or my truck. I used plasti-dip paint for now because I’m gonna replace my doors and...

    My facet mechanical to electric fuel pump conversion review.

    My carter 4070 has been working great for a few months now! No psi gauge in cab but full throttle revs don’t even budge the gauge under the hood. Two of the mdchixal pumps I went though would hit basically 0 off just a rev brand new. That’s feeding my 90cc and stage 1’s so I’d imagine it’s...

    Lift kits?

    @tbrumm its got poly bushings in it now, probably the only thing the previous owners ever replaced on the whole truck before I got it, literally! still had factory paint on my return lines even at 120xxx. So if I don’t get the drop bracket my axle is gonna be out of center it sounds like. I’ll...

    Lift kits?

    I’ve been looking more into it now, it looks like maybe factory pitman arms have differences but skyjacker is coming up with 150/250/350 pitman arms being labeled as the same arm for 4-6 inch lift. But what I am also realizing now is Dana 60 has a track bar stabilizer in the center. And the f350...

    Turbo Upgrades from Classic Diesel Designs

    I never thought of porting the exhaust housing, I just installed a 093 housing on my truck it’s too bad this didn’t happen a few weeks ago I could have sent it to you before I installed it! Got a before and after shot of porting? Is there a lot of material taken out on it or is it mainly for...

    Exhaust restricive

    Flow master straight through or a gasoline truck style flow master that is designed to have backpressure? You don’t really want back pressure on a diesel most diesel mufflers are basically a straight through design. Any of the performance ones anyway. even the walker mufflers that are very quite...

    @Thewespaul shoild be better than my negative arch springs and bad bushings/ “mini leaf” pack lift from eBay lol I though skyjacker mentions their lift as “soft ride”? They look to be progressive rate springs

    Lift kits?

    The junk yard truck is f250 I have 350. From what I read the lift kits are from 86-97. They aren’t super duty springs it’s just a f250 with a skyjacker kit and I was gonna use the springs/ shocks and hopefully pitman arm? @Thewespaul

    Lift kits?

    I found my lift kit!! 4 inch skyjacker kit for 80$ at the junk yard on a 96/97 power stroke truck. Lift looks almost new truck was really nice looking no front end damage rear was blown out. Will the pitman arm off a f250 fit my f350?

    Lift kits?

    My springs are dead, bushings are gone and Almost negative arch now and 4 years ago I decided a “mini leaf” pack lift was a good idea. Anyways I want to get a real lift kit now, saving some money and taxes are in a few months. I don’t want to over spend because that’s easy to do with any parts...

    I have two of the horizontal line grills laying around. One is the billet style and one the old school big bars like pictured above. Haven’t found a grill I like so I just stayed stock with some lights added

    Rare trucks....

    Crew cab bull nose trucks done seem to be very common I’ve seen a few but not as many as crew cab obs trucks. And I don’t see many crew cab brick nose trucks either, I think the brick nose trucks will be more scarce in the future since most consider them ugly and scrap/part them out all the...

    Why doesn't my pickup have anti-sway bars?

    My f350 doesn’t have them, but I have seen them on other f350’s before not sure why probably just a extra suspension package you could have chosen. Used to sway really bad with dead shocks but then got a new set and wouldn’t even think I didn’t have sway bars
