    What clutch kit to use with Lucky Mod?

    O.K.. thanks everyone. I've found a couple of OEM replacement clutch sets available for around 190.00 with a center sprung disc. Just trying to keep the cost down by going with the modified DMF.

    What clutch kit to use with Lucky Mod?

    I'm going to do a clutch job real soon and I'm going to do the Lucky Mod on the flywheel. So, can anyone tell me exactly which clutch kit to buy for use with the modified DMF? Like what size and does the clutch disc need to be for a SMF or a DMF? Any info from you guys that have done this is...

    Front crank seal sleeve availability?

    Napa says that Balkamp part has been "obsoleted" and is no longer available. I figured the two places I should be able to find this sleeve would be IH or Napa, but it appears not to be, so far.

    Front crank seal sleeve availability?

    I'm getting ready to replace the front crank seal on my 1990 7.3. I have the new seal but I'm having difficulty finding the "speedy sleeve". Does anyone have the part number for this sleeve? My International dealer and local Napa have been no help. Is it still available? I may not need one but...

    A tragic end to a nice truck

    Yep, it is in a yard in Hayward. The man running the ad is the owners friend. This guy came with the owner when the truck was picked up from me. Apparently the owner also has a 95 F350 whose powerstroke died. He then swapped in a 7.3 idi with a Banks turbo. The friend said that he could not make...

    A tragic end to a nice truck

    While cruising Craigs-List for some parts for my recently aquirred 1990 F-350, I came upon an ad from a guy parting out an 87 F250 4x4. It took me a minute, but I knew the truck in the ad was familiar to me. There was somthing about what was left of the paint job that motivated me to contact the...

    Sharp '73 conversion on ebay

    That engine is the "Toro-Flow" V6 diesel that GMC had available in the sixties. It is the 478 cid V6 converted to diesel and it did not earn a very good reputation. It came in 351 and 478 cubic inch sizes as a V6 or you could get one in a 637 cubic inch V8. All of these were derived from gas...

    goat powered ford f/s on CL

    Yep, its mine. I've accumulated too many vehicles and the wife likes the 99 F-350 better because of the auto trans mainly. One of my Jeeps also has to go. Bummer.

    allergic to $8800? how about $1800?.....

    Well if that is the dumbest thing you've ever heard, then you have'nt been around too much. Here in CA. all you need to do is file for non-operation if you're going to let the registration lapse. It's a small fee for this and you won't get hit with back fees if you ever want renew. Simple as...

    Big Ed gets a Face Lift,..

    Yep, that looks like the Warn Enforcer. A great looking bumper. That thing is about a grand brand new and half of that is just for the mounting kit. It was too much for me so I went with the Warn Classic. About half the price.

    Bought the 86 f350, swap begins

    Why don't you go take some measurements and see for yourself? But to me, this idea of swapping in the Dodge axle(s) is just added work, exspense. and complication to the intended goal. Do you really want to put that Cummins in that truck? What is your plan? And is your plan practical? From...

    HELP Cracked Firewall?

    Go right for the larger kit. Part number is E8TZ-7K509. I went through Fordparts.com and got a relatively good price of about 108.00 bucks. I just fixed my 87 with this kit last week and it turned out great with the clutch pedal action back to normal.

    Need some part number help

    Just wanted to say thanks to all who replied. Got the large reinforcement plate installed and all is good. Funny thing though, all the bushings, brackets and things up under the dash were in fine shape. So we just did the plate and left well enough alone. Randy

    Need some part number help

    Hey thanks everyone. Well, I decided to go through my truck file and lo and behold there was a copy of the TSB. And thanks for the tip about not welding up the crack. It's been years since I've seen that TSB and it seems pretty thorough and a big pain in neck! If anyone has part numbers...

    Headlight Mod

    Summit shows five different part numbers for their headlight relay kit. Does it matter which one to use with stock headlight bulbs? This mod is my to do list.
