    '93 F-250 Dually: Pre-King Ranch "King Ranch"?

    Likewise I never imagined a Citrus ranch when I thought of King Ranch until I found that customer care card. Hell, I didn't know it was a real thing at all for the longest time I just thought it was another trim level like Lariat.

    '93 F-250 Dually: Pre-King Ranch "King Ranch"?

    Thanks guys! I knew Centurion did "upgrade packages", but didn't know about dually conversions, have to look into that. Other than the duals and slightly different repaint it appears to be all stock and exactly as on the window sticker. I'd love it if someone knew something. I'm gonna write to...

    7.3 return line caps

    I replaced my lines the other day, the old ones must have been on there a very long time because most of them were worn so thin the tops of the caps broke off in little rings.

    '93 F-250 Dually: Pre-King Ranch "King Ranch"?

    I bought this truck last winter sight unseen from pictures from a dealer in Fla. All I was really concerned with was getting a rust free base to start restoring from, and it is all that, just minor wear and dents to resolve. The interesting thing about it is it's a dually F-250. Pretty sure...

    Thanks! :D Just waiting on some split sheathing so i can finish it up. In the meantime doing window seals and trying to de grubify-the interior. Found someone chopped up the interior of the doors to fit an oval speaker that didn't belong there, IDK what possesses ppl sometimes cookoo

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    It's this one, the stainless takedown model. The barrel is pretty beefy but not a bull barrel or anything. I love the takedown feature and the quick detach scope mounts (not Ruger). Not that I really need it I don't backpack or anything but just snapping it all together is cool in itself...

    Drilled out broken bolt from elephant trunk mount and retapped. Not much of a project but it gives me excuse to post gun pics without hijacking the thread :D @IDIBRONCO

    She's been talking about it since the girl in her womans club had one, it's the octagon barrel, feels beefy. I like the made in USA part too. The Ruger takedown is the squirrel hitman gun with the quick detach scope. :shoot:

    Borgesson Steering Shaft... Just Do IT!!!!

    The guy I bought the '91 from used to pull a 5th wheel thru the mountains with it. My first drive I was white knuckled even with nothing behind it, from like 10:30 to 1:30 on the wheel there was nothing. IDK how this guy kept it on the road but it was the first part I changed. I looked all over...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I hear ya bro, I got too many irons in the fire. I'm in the middle of a house project (the literal middle, the old house is gone and the new one isn't there yet), a couple new guns I haven't even shot yet and a field full of trucks and several mountains of parts. Likewise, "a matter of when"...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    New Injectors and glow plugs today. ZD-9s and factory fresh Stanadynes. I love that all 8 of the injectors brand new cost me only a few bucks more than ONE rebuilt injector for my 6.0

    I'm just happy when I see ppl working and not on the dole. This guy got a "At least you tried" award.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I got the dealer I bought it from to send me new glow plugs, that was it. The driver was some Russian kid in a old Dodge Cummins with a Kaufman hauler and the company name taped to the door. Kid looked like he was barely scraping by, was scared sh!tless it was gonna get him fired so I didn't...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    As if, I'm thinking this wasn't the shipping co's first oopsie cause they made sure to get paid up front. It happened because it came from Fla where it "started right up every time" according to the salesman, but in NJ in Feb. it needed those non working glow plugs that weren't an issue in the...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    FINALLY got to start work on the '93 F-250 I bought back in March. I bought it sight unseen and had it delivered, it made it all the way from Fla to NJ before the kid delivering it smashed the front end unloading it from the carrier. Yesterday replaced header, grille and headlight assemblies.

    CDD April 2019 Product Releases and Product Updates

    Even if you don't have an IDI that intake hat is worth the price as a object d'art. Beautiful welds there brother.

    Purchasing a 7.3 IDI from relative, need advice ae!

    $1500 with a zf5 I'd jump on it. I'd take it for a good local test drive before a 5 hour trip but if an IDI starts and runs and has oil it'll generally go till you stop, the iffy part would be the rest of the truck.

    Formally Introducing... Red Fred the Rusty ol Flatbed

    Love your shop! (dig Fred too). I'm in the "4 stakes in the ground" phase while I duke it out with the zoning board over the size I want to put up, but hopefully this summer and then I can get started on my projects too. As it is I'm stuck with jack stands on dirt, can't wait.

    Just die and won't restart

    A good use of time for any 6.0 owner is watching all of dieseltechron (RIP) videos. He has a whole slew of "crank no start" videos.
