    Had up pipes done. Now sluggish

    I had a local shop put new glow plugs in my 2003 7.3 power stroke. My up pipes were also leaking so they replaced those with the new ones that I guess the flanges bolt together. They had to remove the turbo to do the up pipes and for some reason it doesn’t feel like it’s making boost they think...

    Dana 60 swap, anyone know a source for rear springs?

    The guy I got my axles off disappeared. I actually paid him for my rear springs but it looks like I will need another set. Does anyone know of a source for a set and a good place to get the 4" blocks? Thanks
