    1991 F350 Crew Cab Diesel Dually Build - Project Brownie...

    Just posted a video of the latest - soup bowl delete, new wheels and tires (Hankook Dynapro AT2), engine oil and filter change, fuel filter change, CDR valve change (turned into a complete fiasco!), ZF5 oil change, Sterling 10.25 rear differential oil change, new vent tube and breather on the...

    Shocks for 1991 F350 DRW Rear Wheel Drive Stock Height - Bilstein 5100?

    I'm in the market for some shocks for Project Brownie and had hoped to get Bilstein 5100, but unless I'm mistaken, they're not available in this configuration - 1991 F350 DRW Rear Wheel Drive Stock Height. I'm seeing 4x4 shocks and lifted shocks, but nothing for stock height RWD. Anyone have...

    New-to-me rear bumper has had the front side wire wheeled, blasted, and painted. Still need to do the backside.

    Didn't think about the rock issue! A 4x4x4 stuck between the tires must have caused quite a racket!!!

    Yeah, I guess it does look tempting to the uninitiated.

    1991 F350 Crew Cab Diesel Dually Build - Project Brownie...

    Yeah, the D60 swap is a bit of an ordeal. If I want a DRW IDI ZF5 4x4 crew cab, I just need to start with a SRW IDI 4x4 ZF5 crew cab and add a dually bed and hubs. I like the idea of keeping it NA for now, but maybe with an upgraded pump and injectors. I'd like to do some spot painting on...

    Picked up a used rear bumper a few days ago. Hope to get some paint on it today.

    I think you're right, but I'll double check just for peace of mind. Thanks

    1991 F350 Crew Cab Diesel Dually Build - Project Brownie...

    So, I got underneath the truck to change the oil a few days ago and it looks like someone did some off-roading at some point. I'm a bit concerned that the oil pump pickup is too close to the bottom of the pan. Think I'm going to drain the oil out and stick an inspection camera in there to see...

    1991 F350 Crew Cab Diesel Dually Build - Project Brownie...

    Already removed and sold. It wasn't the correct one for the truck so it was welded on and I'm not a big fan of that. I sourced a stock front bumper but may scuff it and paint it black so it will match the wheels and the rear bumper that I sourced for it.

    1991 F350 Crew Cab Diesel Dually Build - Project Brownie...

    The first order of business was to do something about the rolling stock - mismatched dry-rotted tires on stock steel wheels. I think shiny Alcoa's would look silly on an old ranch truck but I wanted something a bit better than the beat up stock steel wheels without breaking the bank, so I...

    1991 F350 Crew Cab Diesel Dually Build - Project Brownie...

    After I sold my previous project truck (Brutus - 87 F350 CCLB DRW 4x4 7.3 IDI-T ZF5) it was only a matter of time before I found another one. Anyway, once I moved home to Texas, I found a nice 7.3 IDI powered crew cab dually. It's a 1991 XLT Lariat, 7.3, ZF-5, Sterling 10.25 (with 4.10's and...

    Tires for 1991 F350 DRW - 235/85/16 or ?

    I ended up with Hankook Dynapro AT2's, 235/85/16 - $160 each with free shipping from Amazon.com. They're highly rated, too.

    Tires for 1991 F350 DRW - 235/85/16 or ?

    Thanks for all the input. I'm going to run 235/85/16's. That seems to be the most tire that I can run in the back without rubbing when I'm loaded.

    Tires for 1991 F350 DRW - 235/85/16 or ?

    Ok, so the 245/70/16's are about .4" thicker and 2.2" shorter than the 235/85/16's. Another option would be 245/75/16. Plenty of tires available in that size. Those would be .4" thicker and 1.2" shorter than 235/85/16's. Not finding anything in a 245/80/16 or 245/85/16.

    Not terribly familiar with Hercules tires; they sell them locally, but no luck in finding a price online.

    Thanks. I'm liking the Dynapros, too.

    Tires for 1991 F350 DRW - 235/85/16 or ?

    Hankook makes two different version of the Dynapro. The AT2's have really good ratings on Amazon and they're really inexpensive, too, at $177 each and free shipping...

    Tires for 1991 F350 DRW - 235/85/16 or ?

    I'm in need of a set of new tires for Project Brownie, a 1991 F350 CCLB DRW 7.3 ZF5. I'll be using stock steel wheels, truck has 4.10 gears, will be used for towing. Not too worried about miles per gallon. Will spend some time off-road picking up project cars, so I'd prefer something with...

    Low Silicate Green Coolant - Which One Are You Using?

    Sure. How about this? Or this?

    Low Silicate Green Coolant - Which One Are You Using?

    I have not tested the coolant. I don't know if it's contaminant free. It looks good, but looks can be deceiving. I plan to tow with it. Nothing too heavy at this point, but hopefully that will change. I'm also in south Texas, so I need a cooling system that's in good shape. Thanks

    Low Silicate Green Coolant - Which One Are You Using?

    Still has the original radiator. Not sure about heater core. Thanks
