    Hey guys, so I recently got my hypermax Cowl installed finally. Wanted to play around with turning up my fuel.

    Coolant leak

    So my truck has a coolant leak. Coming from the rear passenger side. At first I thought it was the block heater. But reached my hand in their and felt around it, nothing. I can see the leak on my exhaust, track it up to headers, and then I can't see up in there because of the cross member. Hate...

    Another weird electrical thing....

    So I just got new batteries in the old girl about a week ago. But apparently I had a parasotic draw happening. So I disconnected both grounds on the batteries, and tested amperage with the multimeter and it showed it was drawing about .14 amps. I pulled each fuse on the truck and watched to see...

    Headlight weird issue.

    Gents, so recently my headlights started being screwy. Basically, if I just pull the knob out, I'll get dash lights and rear lights but no headlights. But if i start pushing the knob in and out I can find the "sweet spot" and get lights up front along with dash and rear. BUT, regular headlights...

    Temp acting weird...

    Hey gents. So past couple days my water temp gauge has been weird. Normally it never moves above 190. Even when I've towed heavy I barely goes above 190. But for the past couple days it's been moving around between 185-190. The thermostat is the motocraft one everyone recommends and is only...

    Welding oil pan in place?

    Hey y'all so I've gotten mixed opinions about this with everybody I've talked to. I've done this before just wondering if it's actually ok or a no go. So basically i recently finally got around to putting the rest of my gauges in. The only one not hooked up is the oil temp. I'm waiting until I'm...

    Dual fuel gauges?

    Hey gents I searched but havent found anything... So I'm thinking when I finally save up enough money to make my custom gauge cluster that it would be kinda nifty for each tank to have its own fuel level gauge... Does anyone know how I would go about wiring this in while retaining the stock...

    Shocks and springs

    So as many of you know my truck was in a front end collision recently. Got her back,on the road finally, but after looking closely I've noticed a slight bend downward in the passenger side spring right before the shackle loop on the spring. So I'm just wondering where people send/take their...

    Need clarification on leaf spring shackle bushings

    So I'm replacing both front shackles on the truck. Ordered a new set from ATS. My question is, the current bushings look like the first pic. The new bushings look like the second pic. Is it a problem that the new bushings do not have the lip around the edge and might even be a tad bit skinnier...

I haven't owned my truck for that long compared to other here, and the guy I bought her from put the cheapest POS tires imagineable (owner of a 3 generation family tire shop had never even heard of the brand) just to sell her. So I've been having...

    Looking for input on an idea...

    Ok so I'm currently in the process of gathering material for a custom built truck bed tool box... It will have a removable tool tray with foam cutouts for each socket, wrench, etc., LED lights for the bed, AND a power inverter neatly hidden away with probably 2 110V plugs going under the arm of...

    What is this part called??? Oil pressure sender port crack.

    Ok so my oil pressure gauge started acting screwy. So I figured I would throw in a new sensor and see if that solved the problem. Simple enough, and I've swapped oil sensors numerous times. So I took the old one out and put the new one in, fired it up for a few seconds and gauge looked good. Hop...

    Intercooler size?

    Ok gents... Before you blow up on me I have researched this and am only more confused. I'm trying to figure out what size intercooler I want for my 7.3idi turbo? Got a cool guy (you know who you are) that's hooking me up with the plumbing for it, so I just need the actual intercooler. But I have...

    Stock ATS air box?

    Sorry again cents for another rookie question... But I've seen so many mixed reviews on the stock ATS air box. I'm thinking about putting a cowl setup on but would it be worth my time to fab up a new air box for the filter? I've heard the stock filter tends to not filter very well. Input...

    Hooking up a disconnected fuel filter/water sensor?

    Howdy. So the previous owner of my truck disconnected some stuff from the fuel filter area and I'm not sure what is what. Due to my computer illiteracy (I'm a welder... I hate computers) google ain't cutting it for me. So could someone give some pictures and input as to what is the fuel filter...

    Where to plumb coolant filter?

    Hello y'all. So I've searched and couldn't find a straight answer... I've seen mostly just 2 days to plumb a coolant filter into the system but I'm wondering about the pros and cons of each way. The first way is to tap into that port on the side of the water pump and the overflow tank. The...
