    Regearing or aux overdrive

    It looks like a Spicer 5831 "Brownie box" might be a good option but I don't know much about them. I think this could be an option to have 2 overdrive gears. Anybody have or know of any good resources on these?

    Regearing or aux overdrive

    I checked with Inland truck already and I'm told for the Dana super 60 front axle that the only other option is 4.30. One is a 6.0L and one is a 6.4L and both are running with a programmer. They both make plenty of power and I have no worries about ruining their capability. F450's/550's are...

    Regearing or aux overdrive

    So my brother and I have both just recently purchased F550's that are equipped with 4.88 gears and 6 speed manual transmissions. A 2006 and a 2010 both diesels. We spend a lot of miles with them traveling down the road to jobs and the 4.88 gears are way too low for highway driving. We both...

    What will seal the the slip fit on an 093 system?

    My slip fit on the turbo drive side of my 093 system will not stay sealed. I've tried all the different sealers I can find and none last more than a week tops. Has anybody used something that will seal this up?

    I like it.

    Let's talk Overdrives vs Gears

    It does weigh on the verge of 12K lbs, but like I mentioned the engine power side of things is good. I want to set the cruise at 80 and do just that, cruise. I'm about wrapped out at 80 now. i like the US gear for its rugged heavy dutyness. I like the way it shifts too (from reading the...

    Let's talk Overdrives vs Gears

    So my my '94 IDIT w/ 5 speed and 4.10's is awful in my mostly road speed driving. Power is just fine but I hate being reved all the time and fuel economy is about nonexistent. I bought a dually axle and I'm going to do the swap from SRW to DRW as you can see I need. I have wanted to gear the...

    Where can I get a Water in fuel sensor for a decent price?

    NICE. Big thanks to you kb1jid. Had to have just the right search criteria to find that one. I had not previously found a cheap one on my ebay search. Bought it INTERNATIONAL 06010049/1811490C91 SENSOR

    Where can I get a Water in fuel sensor for a decent price?

    Dealership wants over $50. That's too much for that little thing. I'm trying to fix up a customers old '91 7.3L but I don't want to hook him for a $50 WIF sensor. Called my local junk yards. No go. (I'm talking about the one that screws into the bottom of the OEM aluminum bowl)

    Ok. Thanks guys. I saw a picture of the actual pickup with the box on it.

    I might buy this axle out of a '97. Can I tell for sure from the picture that this is the dually axle? Might score some dually Alcoa's too!

    Project: '94 CC F350 Service Pickup

    Another question: Do the dually rims for these pickups allow to run 255/85 R16 tires? Who has run them? Has anyone ran these 10 lug adapters to use 19.5 rims off a newer F550? http://www.arrowcraft.com/index.php

    zf6 cold shift

    How new or how good is the clutch? Is it hard to push?

    FS: Dually conversion Kit

    Thanks for turning me onto these. I'll likely need adapters for the front if I get the dually parts pickup I need. The biggest trouble is that I live in Montana and you're in Maryland.

    Project: '94 CC F350 Service Pickup

    The only thing about trading gears is we don't live close. The power is good for the most part. It really pulls strong in the mid range. 12k pickup + 10k trailer @ 70 on the interstate and you never have to shift. It's really laggy and smoky on the bottom end though. My R&D cam coupled...

    Project: '94 CC F350 Service Pickup

    So, I completed this project enough to go to work with it and have been really busy with that. I have not been back here to update but after running for over a year here are some things lacking: Rear suspension is riding/bouncing on the overloads all the time. Need heavier aftermarket...

    The Oilburners hall of shame

    Rodney Red I'm sure some of you won't like this, but Rodney Red goes on this list. After being recommended by this site I purchased one of there $650 radiators. I didn't look as nice as I thought it should and it didn't fit well but whatever I could live with it and I did. After three years...

    ATTN: dually experts

    I've got a line on a '94 2wd DRW parts pickup. Now I don't see a lot of 2wd's in my country. The rear axle should swap straight into my '94 4wd F350 to convert to a dually as far as I know. What about the front axle adapters? Will they bolt on my D60 front axle or will I need something...

    Just get a Speedi-Sleeve for your worn yoke. That will save you a little $$$.

    So let's talk gears

    This would be a better choice for me than the current 4.10's. I drive quite a bit of Interstate and the speed limit is 75, but everyone goes 80+. It's frustrating for me to have the engine roaring when I don't need any extra grunt; I'm just trying to go close to the speed limit, and the 4.10's...

    Trailers

    I would just keep shopping the classifieds like craigslist. Something will come up. Put a wanted add online for one. Lots of people out there have something they want to sell you.

    6.0 turbo on a 7.3??

    Not trying to be a downer, but it just doesn't even seem worth it when there are so many upgraded turbo options intended for the 7.3L. I think that the reason that the hybrid 6.0L VGT's are popular is because they are a direct bolt in upgrade. Also a VGT is quite problematic compared to your...
