    Safe running rpm

    I don't have a tach but cross country was going about 68 the whole way on the flats and it was pretty up there since I have just the T19. No issues doing that 5 days straight.

    Project Truck - 89' F250

    This is the last window seal I need to do so if you figure it out let us know. I did the rest of them with kits from bronco graveyard and they were excellent quality and perfect fit. Windows are tight, still sime wind noise from the moldy crack on the smokers window but I like to leave the moss...

    Y-pipe to up-pipe slip fitting

    Are they a pop test matched set? If you was to verify if the purchase was a bad idea, look in the tech articles for making a pop tester and make sure they're all around the same. I don't remember the number to shoot for or acceptable range but it was mentioned in here recently. Also check the...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Could always paint, then toss sand on it, then roll paint on the sand. How we made the "nonskid" on the subs.

    I had my buddy mock it in place while I sat in the seat in a few positions. It's off to my left a good bit and has good clearance heightwise. You'll all be the first to know when I smoke my noggin on it. Thanks @The_Josh_Bear

    GRRRR! Pick up mods that should be illegal

    Take some large steel balls, like 1" diameter, break some old spark plugs apart, role in glue and stick ceramic shards to them. Easy to toss and shatters a window easy

    Squeak from front wheel - not spinning freely

    No. I don't have a good photo, I'll find something here in a minute. But to install, the top of the caliper slides up into a grove while the bottom is then pushed onto the rotor and then held in place with a rectangular plate and one bolt thru the plate. This is to allow the caliper to have play...

    Squeak from front wheel - not spinning freely

    Do the calipers slide freely? Were they greased on the portion where it slides?

    How much is enough fuel?

    Should be an arm going to the wastegate or some sort of op rod depending on turbo style. I welded mine shut on my Subaru to use an external.

    6.9 & 7.3 IDI Commandment Lists - IDI Do’s and Don’ts

    Repairing a rusted Rad support for a 1986 style

    Horseshoe Autowrecking in Belfair, WA has about 5 or 6 bullnose trucks with varying damage but low rust. Also a pick n pull in Lynwood, just north of Seattle. Not sure if there is anything there.

    6.9,7.3 and 7.3 turbo fuel return lines?????s

    Hoseclamps of this style are nice too. They bite less than the normal ones and don't cut in much. The spring style is fool proof but can sometimes be a pain if you don't grab them just right. I seem to send them across the shop... but I redid my entire vacuum system on my Subaru and had no...
