    Differential carrier install, need help.

    I ended up honing two crap bearings out and then measured before setting up the Timken bearings! Locker is in and everything seems to be going fine. Now swapping in the 4407 transfercase to replace that 1356! THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP YOU GUYS!!!!

    Unfortunately it is a different carrier than the original. Definitely wish I had the original one.

    Differential carrier install, need help.

    Thank you so much, when I took it to a shop months ago they said they’ve never seen one installed like that. So I was sent back with an empty axle. This helps so much, I appreciate it. Now to press out these bearings. “DiD YoU ReSERch ThIS aT AlL BeFOREhanD?” Wasn’t exactly helping.

    Differential carrier install, need help.

    Yes I’ve been trying to do this for 6 months now. ): I installed the carrier with the races. The picture is after I tried. The problem is that the shims are much too small of diameter to fit between the races and the machined housing. I’ve watched as many videos as I can find, mainly they are on...

    Differential carrier install, need help.

    Hey everyone. I’ve been trying to install my carrier with a lock right locker in my Dana 60 for some time now. I can’t find shims to fit in between the bearing races and the machined face of the axle housing. The races I’ve ordered are way too small and I have zero clue where to put them. Are...

    E4od T case for ZF5 swap.

    Okay I’m going to be real with ya, chief. I’m kind of an idiot. So by PTO I assume you mean “power take off”? As to how I find that I have no idea. You’d have to guide me through that. The new 4407 (I believe) is in the picture on the crate. It came off a 250 service truck, fragged 358, and a...

    E4od T case for ZF5 swap.

    Hey all, picked up a new T case from a E4od for 75$ to replace the slipping slush box in the truck as of now. Truck’s a 87 f250 ZF5 to 1356. The cases are a bit different at the tail shaft and I do have the driveshaft with slip joint from the 4407 case... believe that’s the type of the new case.

    Cold air intake advice?

    Hey all! I was previously happy with my spectre intake until this happened... anyway, any advice on a DIY intake box and or a new air filter. Going to be resealing my turbo drain today and this put a damper on the day. Pictures are certainly appreciated! Anyway, thanks as always!

    3 or 4 inch exhaust??

    I went with a 4” diamond eye exhaust that backed up to the banks downpipe. Honestly the 4” is overkill for the stock turbo and a 3” exhaust kit for a 460 truck would work just fine. Both are cheap options and will let the engine breathe uninhibited. I kept the muffler on because I’m getting too...

    Helps, I have goofed up. Electrical advice

    Alright I’ll pick one up! Currently though there is a clear connection problem as nothing lights up at all. Thank you!

    Helps, I have goofed up. Electrical advice

    Haven’t checked, but they were strong yesterday and for the past month. I’m going to take a gander at the fusible link tomorrow and see what’s up. Thank God for the YouTube

    Helps, I have goofed up. Electrical advice

    Haha no, it’s fuel line from the Facet pump to the filter. So also the starter terminal on the fender well by the battery won’t turn the engine over. Any suggestions?

    Helps, I have goofed up. Electrical advice

    Okay, so I’ve got the knowledge of electrics on par with a 5 year old. Yesterday I wired the Facet Fuel pump to a toggle switch on the dash and as I was running out of time I wired it to the battery direct and grounded it on the mounting plate. It runs to the engine block so idk. Today I was...

    Intermittent sputtering, surging, but no fuel leaks.

    The material in the Facet pump are red bits of metal I believe. I’ve got a 38 gallon tank to swap in and my front tank developed a hole in it during the summer. It can’t hurt to replace the tank and start from there. It’s been about three years since I’ve done return lines; might need to replace...

    93 IDI Turbo Cranks But Will Not Start

    If you can, post a video to show exhaust while it’s cranking. White smoke means fuel is getting to combustion chambers.

    Intermittent sputtering, surging, but no fuel leaks.

    So as I was about to drive the truck to my local shop to have the 2” RSK welded on my truck started acting up. About two cranks before the engine started (not much at all), and then it fired up with high idle. The idle sounds fine, then gets rough with some sputtering and white smoke, nothing...

    Question on Dana 60s

    Progress on the Axle so far. Springs have slightest positive arch, and retain decent flex. Next will be a RSK from Sky, ill probably just have it installed along with my alignment at the local shop. I can't justify SD springs and modifying a PMF kit for this truck. :)

    Lifting a 94 F250 idi

    So on lifting your dana 50 or 44HD, I would look at custom suspension 2" lift springs or the 3 leaf HD pack that came on early 80s f350s, you will need drop brackets for the lift that you put on a TTB. I had my lift on the TTB until i wanted more flex and went with a Dana 60 that I'm putting a...

    Lifting a 94 F250 idi

    I went with a Tuff Country 2in lift with diesel springs. Ended up near 3.5” but if you remove the second spring from the bottom you’ll get it right near perfect camber, rides great too. I ran 35s on mine with no issues. Also the HD springs for early 80-86 F350s are a 2in lift, just use 2in drop...

    Question on Dana 60s

    So, I got the Dana 60 under the F250 last night and waiting on one tie rod end and a adjustable panhard bar! I’ll order an RSK in the future, stuck between the SKY kit for 80-91.5 frames or a PMF kit!
