    IDI to Powerstroke

    Now that you mention it The 4 and 6 stud converters do ring a bell. I have less than 5,000 miles on rebuilding the trans in my idi and less than 50,000 on my ps. Both by the same shop. Would you happen to be able to send me the pin out of the wiring changes if you have them handy? If not i, will...

    Old Blue: 4th life

    I like the steering wheel remote holder. Any info as to where I can get one? Is it a Pioneer specific piece? Looking good on your project. Can you just fill in the gap in the jb weld with some more? Why do you think it broke loose? Kind of hard to join 2 dissimilar metals. what about finding an...

    Old Blue: 4th life

    I saw where you used vice grips. I suggested zipping the linkage to make shure it was fully closed and not just stuck in the middle of its travel by a weak spring not returning it all the way (experiance from working on a gm 6.5t talking here). Then you can test for boost while the truck is...

    Ever seen a big lifted 2wd?

    Looking at the close up photos. the studs are off center in the holes, and the tapered lug nuts just catch the edge of the hole. http://www.use.com/showorig.pl?set=fd9e68e5e59b127b698f&p=12 http://www.use.com/showorig.pl?set=fd9e68e5e59b127b698f&p=16 This truck looks like it was built...

    How much weight off the back bumper?

    Yeah, Your not "stacking" the 800 lbs over the top of the tires/axle. That is 800 lbs hanging out at the end of a lever 8 ft long

    "do they make threaded to ferrule adapter?" Yes. Do you know how the wastgate linkage works. if so zip tie it in the full closed position and test for boost after you get the gauge in.

    Old Blue: 4th life

    Step one get that boost gauge mounted in thea intake. even if it's just temporary in the truck. is your turbo kit new or used? make shure the wastgate linkage moves freely. Also you don't want to build alot of boost when your just sitting still idieling in the driveway. the motor needs to have a...

    That thing just was sold on ebay on july 9th for $1500. Guess they saw it in person and ran away scared. It's being sold by a car lot so you know its made of gold. Sean YMMV

    C6 to ZF5, stupid clutch linkage hookup problem

    Sooo the pedal assemblies/firewalls changed when the headlight/front end changed. That's easy enough.

    C6 to ZF5, stupid clutch linkage hookup problem

    Towcat how do you tell them apart? are the early ones stamped sheet metal and the later ones the cast magnesium/aluminum/potmetal'ish looking stuff? Or am I thinking of one of my chevys? I cant look at my 86 it's parked somewhere else.

    C6 to ZF5, stupid clutch linkage hookup problem

    Like I said I don't remeber exactly when the change occured. I've spent the last hour searching. I know i have an 86 and a 92 and they won't interchange. They changed the fire walls sometime between there. You may get lucky and be ok. I would definatly have the 85 parts on hand just incase.

    C6 to ZF5, stupid clutch linkage hookup problem

    BP6.9 Let me know, I'm close enough to come get it. I can send Ryan the 87 pedal assembly in exchange for his 92 pedals that I would need. I'm waiting on getting my e40d rebuilt in my new to me 92 truck. B-( The 85 pedal and master should fit your 87. there are 2 different pedal assemblys. i'm...

    C6 to ZF5, stupid clutch linkage hookup problem

    92 pedal assembly may or may not fit the fire wall of your 87 truck. They might different. The master cyl hooks up above the gas pedal. the pedal pivots thru the bracket and a plate with a pin bolts on the end and the hole in the rod goes over the pin on the plate. You will probably want to...
