    Still possible to get a 6.9/7.3 4x4 for under $10k?

    I bought my F350 4wd cc new in 94 for 23K and I have been thinking about selling it soon. A few years back I found a Reading utility bed that is all aluminum. Very rare because at the time they cost 10 K just for the utility bed. About eight years ago I added a brand new full banks turbo kit at...

    https://fredericksburg.craigslist.org/cto/d/port-royal-ford/7501520101.html Supply and demand, the cost of new ones, drives up prices. You may have to ad another couple thousand for diesel fuel to tow them home..lol

    Where is the "low point dimple" on a wheel?

    In the 70's, I worked at an American station and we had a tire shaver . My boss would do it but I don't remember any results. Driving with an out of balance tire could wear a shock absorber out quick...How old are your shocks?

    My FIPL mod for the E40d

    I thought the original fipl/tps increases with throttle to supply proper voltage to each of the shift solenoids. How will you change to proper voltage for each solenoid ? What is the advantage of this set up/mod over the stock tps? It would be nice to have a volt meter of stock set up to...

    anyone ever have a eather explosion inside the crankcase?

    Yes, we used to do that with late 60's ford pick up. 3 on the tree. drop it down a gear, turn key off, coast with gas pedal to floor 5-10 seconds, turn key back on and re-ignite raw fuel in exhuast. Sounded like a sawed off shotgun.

    7.3 IDIT are suppose to leak

    Yes, Fuel lines seem to be about every 3-4 years, depending on how careful you size/cut the lines. Other leaks happen...Water pumps, valve covers...Back when these were made, they didn't employ O-rings on sealing motor parts like the new power plants. Quit your whining. Look at the positive....

    Help. Need 10.25 Clutch kit..Obsolete?

    I wish I'd sandblasted my discs before reassembling them. Oh well, I did clean them real good. They actually didn't look that bad. They had a fairly easy life since I bought the truck new. I hardly need posi except for occasional mud and snow. It seems to be working good for now. Thanks for...

    Help. Need 10.25 Clutch kit..Obsolete?

    I guess I could get a 10.5 3 pinion posi and use that in my 10.25 housing. I do have the long splined pinion shaft already. Unlike the Dana Trac Lok that I have, the Visteon 10.5 carrier splits in half making the clutch kit and internal work much easier. Especially rotating the spiders gears in...

    Help. Need 10.25 Clutch kit..Obsolete?

    Yes. When I tested it again this week before I tore it apart, I power braked it on hard packed gravel surface driveway and it grabbed good. In the early 70's high school, my buddy had a 65 Mustang with Detroit and when he pulled up to the bays of the Amoco we worked at, he would turn it tight...

    Help. Need 10.25 Clutch kit..Obsolete?

    They didn't look too terribly bad for 240K . Looked like maybe 40-50% worn. I guess they are designed that way. To slip until you load it up. I noticed in the mud, sometimes only 1 will spin. But when I get on hard surface, the axial force spreads the clutch packs and both grab good. The spider...

    Help. Need 10.25 Clutch kit..Obsolete?

    I have a 94 F350 4x4 CC SRW I bought new. I've been using this site for info on repairs but I'm stumped with this one. My rear will spin both sometimes in mud and snow but sometimes only one. I figure worn out clutch packs. Dealer near Baltimore, Packard Norris can get parts out in one day to...
