    Project Big Blue

    Well then, ill deffinetly have to put that on my list. In my 6.2 it was in the passenger manifold/turbo pedistol. And I didnt even think about it when I replaced the probe, just assumed it was correct being it appears to have a flat spot in the casting as if that's where it was supposed to be.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Every year my kids get some type of nerf gun,,,,, and every year my girlfriend steals them, hides them, and spends the following year surprise blasting random people. Me, my kids, family, guests, but of coarse only when no one expects it.

    60/40 bench swap?

    I picked up an '01-'03 60/40 seat to swap into my '88. The bench I currently have is out of a f-superduty. I like the built in cup holders, back support, and adjustability. Has any one done this? Figure ill get it thrown in and see how things line up and go from there.

    Park brake ratchet?

    I am looking for info on the assembly that the foot lever actuates, "ratchets" for the parking brake. My foot lever has a great feel. Its smooth, firm, and when my foot holds it, the truck is stopped. But there is zero ratchet, and it wont stay down. Its as if the ratcheting aspect is broken. Do...

    Too loud?

    I'm no pro, but ive read that running the 2 pipes from each side into a 3" collector and then 1 single 3" into a straight through muffler works well for sound and performance.

    I want to finally get Gear Vendors unit, have questions though.

    To my knowledge no studs yet. And there is plenty of fuel. Need to install a fuel pressure gauge into my filter head and a regulator. Maybe someday run it on a dyno I and twerk timing. I set it at 9*

    I want to finally get Gear Vendors unit, have questions though.

    Mine is set up 7.3, moose Jr IP, electric lift, ATS turbo, zf5, GV, 3.55 Before the new IP, injectors, and elecrric lift pump, it was a turd and couldnt hold double overdrive at 80 mph. Now it does great. I would do 3.73 gears though, because I do tow sometimes

    Transfercase linkage

    Felt stupid for even asking. That's exactly what I did. All the linkages ive delt with bolted to the case arm or spline. Add fluids and skid plate and I'm back to having 4 wheel drive.

    Transfercase linkage

    I'm replacing my transfercase, I pryed the linkage off of the transfercase. What's is the best way to reattach the linkage? Do I install the bushing into the arm and then install it onto the pin or the other way around? The new case doesnt bolt on

    Bored redneck plus hoarding = PID controlled block heater

    Sorry that was half a thought. Point being if the block heater is getting coolant temp above the 112* (or what ever it is) the sensor switches off at, and I thought I read that ford/international used the glow plugs for below 70*. That a happy spot would be just around 70* that way you still...

    Bored redneck plus hoarding = PID controlled block heater

    Ive noticed when I start mine off of the block heater, its warm enough the cold advance isn't activated or high idle. It fires up great, but seems to idle low. I have the toggle and hole drilled for the high idle mod, just need the diod.
