    Need advise on front spring leveling and front frame ID

    I would appreciate it. Also if you could tell me the center pin hole that would be helpfull. I am going to see if I can make this "mini pack" work, its made for superduty, 3" wide but the center pin hole is 7/16 and I think mine takes a 5/16. Maybe I could sleeve it or something to take the...

    Need advise on front spring leveling and front frame ID

    How much did they charge you for springs? There is a spring shop here local but they want $600 to start and an unknown amount more to add or remove leafs to level the truck. Thats not in my budget. I am not even sure I could just order something anyway... the problem with my truck is since its a...

    Need advise on front spring leveling and front frame ID

    I dont think I can run an RSK, my rear shackle is integrated into the frame. My intent is not to lift, I like my ride height, just to get rid of that 3rd spring and replace it with 1 or 2 more smaller helper springs.

    Need advise on front spring leveling and front frame ID

    Did you see whats there now? Its super caca. They are basically ghetto add a leafs. I was thinking about trying to buy just 4" lift springs for a 77 F350 but I haven't found anywhere that would sell just springs. I was hoping that removing the ghetto leaf and adding the add a leaf would keep the...

    Need advise on front spring leveling and front frame ID

    It looks like something like this would work then http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sja-f46d/recommendedparts The compatibility is for 77-98 so I guess it doesn't matter which leafs I have anyway.

    Need advise on front spring leveling and front frame ID

    My truck rides like a rock in the front, almost no travel at all. If you look at the pics the builder used a torch cut spring to level the truck in the front. I am looking for a leveling kit to replace that bottom cut spring, the kind you would use if you added a giant snow plow or something...

    Bumping the Governor

    My truck seems to hit 3200 really fast in second and third and feels like it want to keep pulling. Is it common to modify it to come on a little later? Is it dangerous for the engine?

    Baumann Controller

    Are you sure you need tach signal? I am also going this route when I swap in an E4OD and I do not have a factory tach. According to the manual they only need a TSS(VSS) and TPS. http://www.usshift.com/downloads/E4ODmanual.pdf

    7.3 IDI in a 79 f250

    @ NTOLERANCE - The trails there look amazing! It looks like our trucks have about the same wheelbase, do you have a D60 up front? I have a kingpin D60 and my turning radius is so bad when I am off road I am constantly doing 3 point turns and I hate it. Same for you or have you found a way to...

    7.3 IDI in a 79 f250

    I have a unique frame, it looks like they welded the 77 frame to the 78 frame to mate the trucks together. Then they used a body lift kit and cut the pucks to custom length to level the body on the frames. In some places I have a 3" body lift and others its on the bushings. I would think this...

    Factory Turbo Exhaust Outlet Mod

    I still have not bolted mine on due to one of my outlet bolts wanting to strip. I have been told they are 8mm 12 point but it seems too loose. 5/16 is worse. Almost seems like a need a 7.5mm. Post back what worked for you. To answer your ques, I do not think there is a gasket there. I think it...

    tach sensor alternative?

    The reason is if I could spend the $70 and know I was good for life that would be one thing but this is my second bad one and you hear of folks with bad ones all the time. For the limited number of idi's on the road its seems like too high of a failure rate. It should be a very simple device...

    tach sensor alternative?

    Anybody ever tried one of these instead? Not sure if it would fit a serp belt setup with the vacuum pump up top but should work for the older trucks, I think the threads are right. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sww-82646?seid=srese1&gclid=CJGE7KqGyLsCFax_QgodAzUAZw

    Easy Headlight Upgrade Kit?

    What is a relay block? Looking at all this stuff to fix the wiring in my truck, I want to tidy everything up. Going to install a secondary or maybe a third fuse block and eliminate as many cheap butt connectors as I can with quality 3M ones with the built-in shrinkwrap. Also going to do the...

    I was looking for relays and came across this, might work as an almost out of the box relay kit. http://www.amazon.com/Amico-Xenon-Conversion-Wiring-Harness/dp/B00BQH8QQ6/ref=sr_1_19?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1383062071&sr=1-19&keywords=relay+harness
