    An A/C question

    I can't even find out what compressor I have . No tags or anything. I know it's factory, and that's about it. Tried with the vin on a few parts sites and nothing. Rockauto has a v belt setup and I thing that;s what I have to go with. And whatever tube that comes with it.

    The kit doesn'y come with the evaporator. Thats in the housing near the heater core, correct? I could clean everything out I guess.

    An A/C question

    On rockauto the complete kit is for sale. Everything except hoses. Compressor, condenser, etc. It's being sold as a complete kit with seals so I guess everything I need is there. I don't know much about a/c systems. Never had working a/c.

    Thanks for the reply. The price to replace came down so I'm going to pull the trigger on this. It was converted to r134a while back but it has ever held for me.

    An A/C question

    Going to be replacing the complete A/C on the 91 . Not the hoses but just about everything else. Do I need to replace the condenser or can I leave it. I read that earlier trucks had larger tubing in the condenser so clogging up was never an issue. What do y'all say? I'd have to pull a ton more...

    Selling upgraded drop in fans!

    No I don't have a coolant gauge. But the idiot one used to always be on the n and after the turbo and champion rad it heats up quick. Up pastthe halfway point. Smoking hot in the cab. I have a Motorcraft thermostat. I can't hear the fan lock up. Truck is pretty loud. And at speed I have the...

    Selling upgraded drop in fans!

    Yeah I think I need one of these. I have a champion radiator that normally runs hot, and pulling the skidsteer just makes it worse. They ought to make a cooling system that runs on r134. Something like a fridge. Or at least use it to cool the coolant.

    Replace a C6 with an e4od?

    You'll Need a tps on the pump. The vrv is vacuum operated. A different trans crossmember. Trans controller. Look for a proper length driveshaft. The od lockout button. Misc wiring I suppose . Others will chime in.

    Turbo / snail / Hat fitment

    You should be able to clock it a little bit if you loosen the bolt. Butlike the other guys said, as long as the o ring is buried you're good.

    Good price for used factory turbo?

    You get a full exhaust with that. Think about how much to ship that too. if you stay pretty much stock you won't have to stud. But Def think about the pump and injectors first if they haven't been replaced yet. That's the first thing, then turbo. I pull a dump trailer too and you Def want a...

    Good price for used factory turbo?

    Well if you are going pistons and all, Then stud the motor and and go big on the turbo. Trade the old turbo in for a larger one and go for a 3 inch downpipe. New pump, turbo, etc. Pull the motor, put all the new parts on and drop it back in

    Good price for used factory turbo?

    You will need a different dipstick tube for the trans. I added a banks trans command also. Makes a difference shifting. That's if you have a e4od. I just did this whole job. For 700 I would get it. You will want to rebuild the turbo. I did aftermarketoil feed line, crossover pipe. Get the...

    Pulled a 1987 out of a hole

    Yeah I did the glowshifts w/pillar and I like it. Keeps everything off to the side. And if you add it up the glowshift is probably the cheapest option if you're going for 3 gauges.

    Airbags or Timbrins,and a few other questions

    Hey Goat, I picked up the skid steer from up north and did not get pulled over once. I used a plate off my neighbors trailer did not get pull ed over. The truck ran good, but it was the reason I did the turbo install. I bought the timbres thinking I could throw them on and be good to go. But...

    Starting an 093 turbo install on my 91 F350

    Too late. When I finished up the turbo and installed the gauges I took it out and pulled the trailer with arond 5-6 tons of stone to see how it went. It pulls great, but the trans temp got up to around 200-205 degrees and that made me nervous. So I went and put another cooler in line with the...

    Half-azzed paint job advice?

    I painted the truck in my sig 2 years ago in my garage. I used a HB gun and my crappy compressor. Did minimal bondo, eliminated the fender markings,(F250). Left all the dings and dents. Paint cost 450 from Sherman Williams auto. Urethane , no clear or anything else. Wash it up and it looks as...

    Starting an 093 turbo install on my 91 F350

    I read about the Banks trans command, and how it changes the shift points. I don't know if I can get the short shifting out by adjusting the tps. Before the turbo it used to run out in every gear. Can't wait to see how it runs with the fuel up a couple flats.

    Starting an 093 turbo install on my 91 F350

    I seen 2 maybe 3 psi. And that was at 2500 rpm. But like I said it shifts so quick now I haven't wound it up in any gear yet. I turned off the od and wounditup a little in third and it got up to 55 60 and I couldn't even tell if it was running at 1800 rpm or 3000 rpm. It was so quiet. But I'm...
