    Sterling Rear Axle Swappers Guide

    http://www.drivetrainshop.com/Ford_10_25_10_5_s/97.htm Hows that? The sterling is elusive in Information because the off road guys aren't scrambling to know every detail about it (14b chevy) The width changed around 2005 to accomidate a different offset wheel. I believe 05+ axles were 3"...

    Leaf Spring Help

    If you use a "reverse shackle kit" from various vendors, it shouldn't be a problem. The brackets lift the truck 2 or more inches, depending on the vendor. Our trucks (bricknose) needs the frame horn boxed in front for the kit to work as it was designed. Other than the steel work, it should...

    Trasnfer cases

    Everything I have researched about these drivelines just leads to the internal pump mod, thats it. Seems pretty stout and used in EVERYTHING from broncos to f-350's as you already know.. Lose a little 4wd low though. As far as the slip vs fixed, definitely a pita. You need to swap out the...

    Rear disc and axle upgrades for our trucks?

    For what it's worth, the 05+ axles are wider to match the rear and had a different brake setup. Shouldn't change anything though as far as mods. The shock mounts need to be moved, the leaf perches sit .5" higher than the 10.25, blah blah blah its awesome. Flange yoke too!

    NP205?

    Don't discount the bw1356/4407 now, the only real advantage the np205 has is you can slam it on a boulder and it will be fine. The 205 is HEAVY. and likes to snap the thinner aluminum the e4od and zf5 use to mate cases with (c6 stuff is beef). Also a lot narrower, so your drivrshafts have 2...

    Rear disc and axle upgrades for our trucks?

    Why not get a 99-04 super duty 10.5 and redrill the bolt pattern and use van disks? Keeps the parking brake, you get disks, updated parts and it rolls right under! I do believe the e brake cables need to be messed with though.

    2wd diesel lift.

    I really want to say it's more of a concern for the coil springs themselves. F250's with the d50 have the same basic setup with the I-beams, but they are equal length and leaf sprung. As far as I know, all 2wd trucks (except f-superduty) used f150-style beams and radius arms. So most of the...

    2005 f550 axles????

    I'd definitely run the Super 60 with regular d60 unit hubs(8x170). Or swap knuckles to the old style and lose out on bigger brakes. Coil sprung, bigger u-joints and better brakes.

    Intro/questions for WVO runners

    Sounds like a good set up letting it settle after the filtering processes. Will definitely start drawing up a filtering mechanism! I only have one 45? Gallon tank on my centurion. So it will all be the same fuel. Probably an 80/20 diesel/wvo blend? May I ask why wvo is bad to start/stop...

    Intro/questions for WVO runners

    Just plan to add to the tank. It's just sitting around taking up space so why not burn it up! Is therena certain micron level the oil should be filtered at? I was going to filter it down to 5 before dumping it in

    Intro/questions for WVO runners

    I can see that. It's a fuel not designed for our system. As far as diluting/neutralizing the acid, would it be a problem to run it, say blended 50/50 with diesel?
