    Turbo Size?

    So my N/A motor crapped the bed (either cavitation or HG that caused the motor to seize). Long story short, I was going to part out the truck, but a deal fell into my lap for a 94 motor w/o a turbo. It has everything, but a turbo... so now, i'm trying to find an equivalent to stock turbo to...

    Injector or Return line leak?

    Well... I cracked the #1 injector & that did not get rid of the sound.... although I now have a little bit of fuel leaking out of that injector or line. I failed to mention in the first post the sound pretty much goes away once the truck is warm. Here's what is sounds like after about 10...

    Injector or Return line leak?

    So i've had knock for a little while that's starting to drive me crazy.... I think it's injector related, but i'm not 100%. In an attempt to root cause the problem back to an injector, I cracked each injector line.... except #1 cyl, because the nut on the steel line wouldn't budge without...

    Pivot Bushings

    Note: I replaced the leaf spring and shackle bushings... U Bolts are still connected. I'm thinking it would be easier to pop off the U bolts; attach the spring back to the frame; then reattach the U Bolts

    Pivot Bushings

    Alright got the pivot bushings pressed in & attached back to the frame. Any tips for getting the leaf springs back into the hangers? I'm having trouble getting them to align crosscar.

    Group 31 batteries

    Hey guys... I'm about to replace my batteries & have read about changing over to group 31s for more cranking amps (also cheaper than 65's). I wanted to confirm fitment in a 1991 truck/bricknose. For those that have run group 31's on a bricknose, what modification is required?

    No Crank

    Thanks! So, I was able to bypass the clutch safety switch. So went to fire the truck up & started right up.... I let it run for maybe 10 minutes, shut it down & tried to fire it up again just to confirm everything was good. No Start/No Crank! I let it sit & threw on the battery tender for a...

    No Crank

    So went out to start the truck this afternoon after getting home from work.... It fired right up, ran it for about 10-15 minutes or so. About an hour later, went out to start it again... nothing. No crank. My WTS light comes on, all accessories etc come on. I checked to see if the crank...

    Air Filter Hold down Bolt

    Hey guys... was planning on redoing my glow plug wiring & replacing glow plugs today. I went to take off the air filter assembly for better access & was only able to get the top nut off. Basically the stud holding the bottom half of the bowl into the intake is not budging. Any ideas? I don't...
