    1994 E-350 Bakes Problem

    Hi all! I just picked up a '94 E350 at auction. Got it running and the rear brakes were dragging and the front driver's caliper was stuck. I slacked up on the driver's side rear adjuster and thought the front brake hose was bad. I replaced both front brake hoses, steel lines, and freed up the...

    ZF-5 broken Slave Cylinder mount

    IDIBRONCO, was thinking the same thing, the case is very thin in this area so I may try to make a plate which can attach to both ears and have the slave cylinder mount through it. Gotta mock up the slave cylinder to see if it is at all possible.

    ZF-5 broken Slave Cylinder mount

    I just watched that yesterday which gave me the idea. The case is super clean and both pieces fit tight together. I have MAP gas and oxy-acet so temp should not be an issue...just patience to be sure it get hot enough before brazing

    ZF-5 broken Slave Cylinder mount

    Is there any way to repair a broken slave cylinder mounting ear? My son was helping me load my newly acquired trans(Jasper reman S-47 with driveline parking brake) into my van and when setting up the hoist, he dropped the leg onto the trans and snapped off the upper portion of the C-shaped mount...

    F 650 trans swap

    My biggest concern is the mounting. I have the S-47 ZF-5 out of an F450 with the trans mounted parking brake. With the factory front engine mount and then fabricating a rear trans mount, there is a lot of unsupported distance between them. Unlike having the front motor mount and the SAE style...

    F 650 trans swap

    You're right....I'm f'ing up fast and picking up speed. Just looked at the title, it's a 1995 (too many trucks to keep track of).

    F 650 trans swap

    I mis-typed the original post. It's a 1992 International 4700 LPX chassis that originally had a 444TE(powerstroke) and Allision auto. I want to swap my 1993 F350 crew cab body and bed onto the frame with a rebuilt 7.3 IDI motor. The truck will be used as family truckster as well as general...

    F 650 trans swap

    Ok, I know this isn't a 450/550 but I want to build a long haul toy out of a 1999 International 4700LPX....hold on I'll get to the OBS piece in a second. The truck has a powerstroke backed by an allison 4 speed auto. My end goal is a 1993 IDI with banks sidewinder in place of the PS, but want to...

    1998 F800 drivetrain into 1993 F-350

    I know the 12V swap is nothing new...hell there are entire companies who make a living off of it. I am looking more for anyone who has put the 5.9 AND Allison 6 speed from a Medium Duty truck into their pick-up and what kind of issues they ran into....

    1998 F800 drivetrain into 1993 F-350

    I have 1998 5.9 12V Cummins and 6speed Allison auto from an F-800 I was thinking of swapping into my 1993 F-350 crew cab dually. It originally had a 7.3 idi. Anybody try this before? I have some ideas of adding a divorced transfer case and Dana 60 front axle in the future as well.

    1987 7.3 IDI thumping through intake and smoking

    Update to the S1600 Well since it's 70 degrees out and the kid opened all his presents, I went out and pulled the valve covers. Everything is in order and extremely clean...started it up to look at the valve train and everything seems to operate as designed. I also took off the oil cap while...

    1987 7.3 IDI thumping through intake and smoking

    Thanks! The exhaust does puff out the muffler, but hard to tell any abnormal noise under there, plus the muffler is the size of a trash can...

    1987 7.3 IDI thumping through intake and smoking

    I've seen a couple posts with these symptoms but unclear on how some of the sources contribute...Here is my situation: I bought a 1987 S1600 International with a service body from a local welding shop. He got it back in 2009 from the local power company at auction. The truck is a 7.3 IDI with a...
