Would you honestly recommend a 6.5l for towing?
Where are you finding a PMD relocate kit that cheap? I'm seeing $140 just for a heat sink & pigtail. This one is $450: http://www.amazon.com/Mounted-Fuel-Solenoid-Relocation-Package/dp/B000RO2YV2/- Steve83

Looking for an adjustable hitch...
I realize this is an old thread, but for anyone looking for more versatility, check out the Boxer. It's not cheap for a multi-ball mount at $171 shipped, but it'll do the job, and it's made in USA. 48 positions and a Cl.V rating. These are the only online sellers I could find...- Steve83

how much have you hauled....
I've towed a 35' GE site office trailer a short distance, a stalled Peterbilt dump truck up a short hill (broke the yoke off the rear axle), a 40hp tractor & implements on the highway, an 18' trailer load of cinder blocks, and another Bronco with mine. I've hauled an upright piano (with the top...- Steve83

what can my truck handle
Your owner's manual explains in detail how to calculate the truck's max SAFE trailer weight, considering optional equipment, cargo, passengers, & other factors. If you don't have one, get the closest year here: https://www.fleet.ford.com/maintenance/owners_manuals/default.asp But the short...- Steve83

Yes, "then" is a word, and that's how it spelled. But "then" (a time or sequence) doesn't make sense in that sentence, in either connotation of the double entendre. For both, it should be "than" (a comparison). You have your definitions backward. The way it's written now is stroking after...- Steve83

In the tag-line for the Dodge forum, please change "For those who would rather be Cummin then Stroken!" to "...than..." ;Sweet I was scarred as a child with good spelling cookoo, and that just leaps out at me. :dunno- Steve83

Injector pump for 6.5 NA
Is there even a tiny chance of weaseling the PMD out of there w/o pulling the intake? I'd love to move mine to an external heat sink before it burns out again, but I'm not comfortable working on diesel engines - certainly not one that runs as well as this one does right now. Is there an...- Steve83

2000 6.5 issues when hot
It sounds more like a problem in the pedal position sensor, but I'm not familiar with these trucks yet. Mine is still running fine (knock wood).- Steve83

Can a 6.5 run with one battery?
Be sure the cable terminals are SUPER-clean. Pull the thru-bolt and then stretch the rubber off to expose the metal ring so you can get ALL the corrosion out/off. Then apply silicone electrical grease (not DIelectric) before putting everything back. It's probably a good thing that you...- Steve83

Would you honestly recommend a 6.5l for towing?
Mine seems to be running perfectly, and my father put it through its paces for 13 years. It has a lot of grocery-getter miles on it, but it also has a trip to Alaska with a ~28' bumper-pull, several trips back&forth between TX & AL with a ~40hp tractor & implements, and he hauled all the...- Steve83

FS: Ford intercooler pipe
Someone asked me to find these, and then he never bought them. The hard pipe isn't bent or punctured; the rubbers & clamps are just a little dirty. I think I have $30 in them, and I'd like to get most of it back, but they need to go. E-mail me thru my profile here or on SMN (where the pic is).- Steve83
