    Project "Deezle" 1989 F-250

    Now plug that bitch back in and test it out. It should Rock Hard and Ride Free, Judas Priest style :rock:... AKA it should work. If so, bolt it up. Tip for the lower drilled hole bolt: use some sort of grease on the head of the bolt to hold it in the socket as you reinsert it. That one can be...

    How-To: Window Motor Repair and Switch Replacement Couldn't find a good write-up on this on any forum so figured I'd give it a go. The window motors on these trucks have a tendency to break these plastic roller pieces inside the gear housing, which then jams the motor and stops it from...

    Project "Deezle" 1989 F-250

    So been busy with some other "life" projects, but I've been able to perform some maintenance on Deezle. Flushed the coolant, which looked damn good when it came out which was a good sign. Used basic Prestone and added the SCAs, then tested and have 1.7-1.9 so that's perfect. Picked up everything...

    I agree, can't have too many pics. Here's a random rear 3/4 view I took today:

    Project "Deezle" 1989 F-250

    sgallaty: The only added electrical on the truck is a trailer brake controller to go along with the gooseneck hitch, and I consider both to be good additions to the truck. I want to go through the underhood electrical and clean it up/check grounds/connections/etc. to ensure it's all...

    Project "Deezle" 1989 F-250

    Thanks guys. Definitely plan on replacing all of the fluids front to back. Would also like to replace the clutch/flywheel with a non-DMF setup. I've been driving around and just listening to the truck and then reading on here to try to figure out if anything is wrong and I think the amount of...

    Project "Deezle" 1989 F-250

    So during the drive home Deezle was pouring black smoke out of the tailpipe. With my limited knowledge of these trucks so far I just figured that this was due to the truck having sat for such a long time, which was over a year according to the previous owner. But once I got it home and got the...

    Project "Deezle" 1989 F-250

    New to the forum, just discovered it due to recently purchasing a 1989 F-250 XLT Lariat with the 7.3 (obviously) and the ZF-5. This is my first diesel rig and I absolutely love it. I won't bore you to death with my vehicular history prior to this, but I have always been a Chevy guy... up until...

    The Official "Show Us Your Ride" pictures of member's trucks thread.

    New here, just picked up this 89 with a ZF-5. First order of business is all new fluids/filters and the addition of a coolant filter. I've been a diehard GM guy my whole life but since the 6.5/6.2 BLOW, and I don't like new stuff and have a penchant for anything mechanical I started looking...
