    O/D light w/ video

    i pulled the plug and mutilated the hell out of the housing. all tabs busted. cool. well the wires looked fine overall. there was two that had a little wire showing but it was from me breaking the plastic around it I think. I brought it to a ford dealer to see what they wanted to change it and...

    O/D light w/ video

    Well i pulled the computer for the trans tonight. a little surface rust so there was water in the area. but internally looked ok. Need some tiny sockets to really open it up. It is currently my daily so I have limited time to pull and reassemble. VSS ohmed at 1800. Not sure what else to look...

    O/D light w/ video

    New car hauler

    So I bought a new car hauler. Royal cargo 7k# 8.5x20 enclosed. I have a 4 hour drive to move to new job. I am going to be hauling my 64c20 and the more I look at the trailer the more uneasy I get. There is no third member at the tongue and the D rings are under the 3/4 wood and zip screwed...

    WMO centrifuge HELP

    I do need a regulator. i was just bleeding off the excess to the bypass for now. did i read that the garden hose ones are adjustable? The lines are aligned so should be good there. it seems ok when its getting correct pressure and thinned out. just down to pumps

    WMO centrifuge HELP

    I just cracked the "to trucK" port and it flowed nicely. still pretty dark though. I have clear hose on the cent. bypass and I can hear see it flowing well. I have a direct drive industrial rotary gear pump that I was avoiding to use because its way more powerful and thought it was overkill...

    WMO centrifuge HELP

    Well i heated the mess out of it, thinned it to probably 50/50 with fuel oil. still wouldnt get past 70. have a second of the same pump, put it inline and got up to 80 but no more....could maybe try parallel for higher volume maybe. Its a 1/4 line out the bottom of the tank but I would think...

    I hit it with a little heat and it didnt change much. I will try longer tomorrow. As far as the unit itself, are they usually smooth as glass?

    WMO centrifuge HELP

    Sorry I made a new thread but its a different issue. My setup can be seen here: The small tank feeds air over oil to the larger one to fill raw oil through the incoming filter then once full, it will cycle. The pump is shown here and should be prefect rating for what i need: I...

    small batch WMO centrifuge setup opinions

    So I am slowly sourcing free or cheap parts to get this setup going and I keep getting in my own way. I don't have a ton of room and didnt really want to run a 55 gallon drum. I picked up a 32 gallon air compressor tank today for $20. I will be running a pa bio centrifuge powered by some...

    warn/hub manual locking

    SO my warn hubs were pretty tough to get into manual. I attribute this to the 2 broken housing bolts letting water in and rust in the mechanism. I scored some "new" ones at the u pull from another 250 for only $20. They just say ford on them so maybe oem and they locked ok.?? Then one had a...

    ^^this! I will say i have an alignment that drives straight in michigan for about 8 months now. But when I brake hard it dives right. I think thats more brake issues. and the camber looks great still

    1992 f250 7.3 dana 50 TTB rebuild

    Good point, I did not get pictures of that since I did it before the rest. Overall it wasn't terrible I guess. The center pivots I forget how but I ended up loosening them both and dropping one slowly with a jack while still attached to the leaves. Lower just enough to get it below the cross...

    Hardy har har lol Funny thing is I actually had a D60 in my garage with the cardan joint, leaf springs, and everything needed for a conversion. paid 200 for it. But I sold in since it needed new gears and a rebuild. Could I have done it, sure but I rebuilt the D50 for less and faster and It...

    Water in Cab-what I found

    This is an old thread but I smelled some weird funk in my truck lately and we had a good rain today. for whatever reason I looked under the carpet and it was wet again and smelled like the worst nut smell you can imagine. This time is doesnt seem like it is running down from anywhere higher...

    Truck Ghost. what is it?

    They are hikvision dome outdoor cameras. I picked them because they were good quality but mostly because they were "compatible" with my servers software. They are also POE since I didn't want to add power at the camera. there are other options and unless you have a NAS (server) you want to...

    Truck Ghost. what is it?

    So once before my security cameras picked up my brake lights on and I ran out there to nothing. Fast forward to today about 4 months later and it did it again, and is continuing to do it while I am 200 miles away. The only thing I can think about is the trailer brake unit is flakey...

    1992 f250 7.3 dana 50 TTB rebuild

    Once the u joints were replaced, slid the axles into the slip joint. Then install kit SBk-3. This is the spindle bearing repair kit and gaskets for both sides. I used my bearing puller which can be rented to get it started then finished it with a pry bar from the top to punch it out. I used...

    1992 f250 7.3 dana 50 TTB rebuild

    It has been a while since I have posted anything. Mostly because I have not had to fix anything :). The ball joints were making terrible popping noise and steering was sloppy. I previously did the pivot bushing, leaf bushings and the hubs outward (bearings, seals, etc) in my first round of...
