    Bellhousing won't come off the block...

    84 F-350, 6.9, T19, 4WD. Doing a clutch. Got the trans and t-case off in one piece. Removed all of the bolts from the bellhousing. The bellhousing will pry off on the starter side but is stuck at the 10 o'clock position. I'm I missing something? Is there a secret handshake or something...

    How much would you pay for this turbo??

    http://baltimore.craigslist.org/pts/894307943.html I'm thinking on making an offer. Pretty obvious that some of the pipes are not there. Thoughts appreciated.

    Rear Drums off of a Dana 70

    Will they just slip off (with some persuasion of course)? Or do the axles/hubs need to come off to get the drums off? I just lost my brakes and found a big fluid stain in the left rear backing plate. Seems like that wheel cylinder is shot. I ordered all of the parts but none of my manuals...

    Boost controllers and blow off valves

    OK so most of my turbo knowledge does not revolve around diesels. My experience with other turbos (cars and aircraft) has been with wastegated set ups so that the max boost and how quickly boost comes on can be controlled. So I'm not familiar with the fuel quantity being the "control" for PSI...

    Radiator Core Support

    Is there really a difference between a diesel and a gasser (80-86) core support? All the ones I've seen listed say "not diesel". How different could they be???

    Good news and bad...

    So my oil cooler pretty much let go last Tuesday. I managed to get another one shipped to me which arrived today. That's the good news! I start tearing into everything and I discover that the rear header is pretty darn different. My rear header has 4 bolts and the one on the new (to me)...

    Front Leaf Spring Bushings

    Getting ready to replace my springs and have a couple of questions before I get started. - Where are most people getting their bushings? - Is it worthwhile getting the urathane instead of the rubber? - Do the ones for my truck have metal sleeves outside the rubber or just rubber in the...

    38 gallon tank

    I finally replaced my leaky 19 gallon rear tank with the 38 gallon tank. Pretty straight forward except for the "cut the tow hitch out of the way" part :rotflmao The old tank came out easily but the new, taller tank wouldn't clear without the extra room. I cut the hitch in a way that it can...

    Full of Questions...

    I'm in the process of adding a stock tach to my '84 that did not have one from the factory. So far, I've replaced the dash to a newer one with the tach, and found a gear cover with the tach sensor. So, my question is, what wires do I need to hook up to make it work? I've looked at this wiring...

    Replacement leaf springs

    So the ol' truck is on the bump stops. Thing is that I have not been able to locate the front stock replacement springs anywhere on line. The pack has three leaves and appears to be stock. The truck came equiped with a plow from the dealer (back in 12/83) I did the research on the VIN and...

    Factory Tach Question

    My '84 did not come with a tach at all. I've seen a couple of OEM (diesel) tachs for sale on Evilbay. The cluster part seems pretty straight forward to install. My questions is, does the truck already have the sensor end to make the gauge work? Or is this something that I'll have to figure...

    Good deal on 39 gallon tank?

    Found this on one of my late night internet travels. I want to add it to the rear of my truck since the existing tank leaks anyway. I already don't have a spare so that's not an issue. Is it the right tank? Any reason I shouldn't buy it? It's one of the lowest prices I've seen --->...

    Sweet looking set up?

    Any reason to believe that this would not fit on a truck with a 6.9? It also seems to be missing a piece - how does it connect to the exhaust manifolds? :love: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250021720329&fromMakeTrack=true
