Im having issues with low amps, amp light is on in the cab and guage is reading low. Alternator was rebuilt in the past couple months, took a volt meter to the alternator and batteries and both look good. Im turning to the volt regulator next. How do I test the regulator? And can it be done with...
I replaced my fuel tank about 5 years ago because the salt ate it. Here we are again and its leaking all over the garage after this long winter. I think the last tank came from oreillys and im sure its crap metal. I even put POR15 on the tank and it didn't last. Im wondering if the steel skid...
So im wondering if anyone knows of a two or three pod guage bezel that replaces where the radio is? I have found them for where the wait to start light is on the dash but not for the radio location. I don't use my radio and thought it be a nice place for guages.
Anyone else unable to grease the drivers side upper ball joint? Got a 90 grease gun fitting but still won't fit. Turned the U joint all ways and can't get it. The passenger side is no problem.
What's the trick?
So a local shop did my ball joints and cracked the service plate on my tranny. Empty of fluid by the time I got home, hope the tranny isn't toasted. Only the plate looks bent can I get replacements??
Well driving home from work today with a loaded down truck when I started getting lots of vibration from the drivetrain. Pulled over crawled underneath and shook the drive shaft at the differential and its all kinds of loose. I've replaced all my bearings and joints except for the diff. Im...
So i got a buddy who is looking at this 7.3 non turbo ambulance. Seems clean, 60000 miles the seller has sent lots of videos and pics of the truck and everything looks pretty good. The guy says the alternator needs replaced, never done work on a idi van before. Lots of wrenching on my truck over...
So I'm changing oil today and checking all my fluids and greasing stuff up after a long winter. I wire brushed off all the gunk from my Dana 50 plug checked the fluid, cleaned the threads and put it back in and noticed it doesn't screw in all the way. I'm pretty sure this is just as far as it...
So I posted a previous thread thinking my fan clutch was going out on me, started hearing a bad metallic vibrating noise. I swapped out clutches and the noise still persists which was a disappointment. It's so hard to hear where exactly it's coming from but I have a fear it's from the...
So I've been hearing a metallic vibrating noise coming from my fan clutch when slipping the clutch or in low rpms. It made this noise once after installing it about 6 months ago. Now Everytime I drive the truck it happens. Fan spins freely, nothing is loose, temp is fine and steady. It is a...
Have a question about the rear taillight harness. I've read a couple threads already on it and have come to find out the following.
Orange with strip=right turn/brake.
Green with strip=left turn/brake.
Brown=running lights.
Black with pink strip=reverse.
Now I'm am left with one solid black...
Got the bed pulled off the truck, flat bed going on soon. While it's exposed I'm doing some rewiring. Anyone know where I can get a taillight harness?, the one that disconnects behind the fuel tank. Planning on putting LED taillights on. Any recommendations? Bronco graveyard? Rockauto? Figure I...
I'm putting a flat bed in the truck, if someone wants my old bed I would be willing to give it to someone if they remove it for me. I live in NWPA, send me a private message if interested.
Does anyone know of a good resource to get beds from? The old girl is getting all of the body work done finally and decided to just get a whole new bed. Any direction would help thanks.
Going to pick up a new alternator for the truck soon figured I would ask if there is a specific brand that has been more reliable than others? Was just going to go to oreillys and pick one up.
So I replaced my GPC a couple days ago after it failed and I couldn't start my truck, wouldn't crank at all. Replaced it and it fired right up, went to start the truck today and it failed again. I got a full GP cycle time then hit the start and nothing not even crank. Going to convert to a...
Wonder what these parts are, something to do with the air conditioning? I'm pointing to the "lines" in the one photo. Just wondering if I can remove this stuff I no longer have air conditioning.
So my truck has always clattered about for a little bit until warm but recently it's been doing something different. When I start it cold it shakes and puts off a cloud of smoke until what seems like a clog is worked out. This only takes 10 seconds or so then it's idling normal. All my fuel...
