    Towing with passenger vehicle vs. truck

    So this has always made me mad. In Virginia, and other states, I can hook up to a trailer with my passenger car or even SUV, and it is completely legal so long as the trailer and vehicle does not exceed the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations. NOW, if I hook to a trailer with my F250...

    Two F350 Crew Cabs....just the cabs

    One is a 93. It is just the cab. Cab is solid but the roof is bowed in a little (may be able to push it out) and the floor board was cut to install a shifter for a transfercase. Make an offer. The other is a 95, this one is a 2wd cab from a gasser. Very solid. Make an offer. I also have...

    Well guys, I bought a new V10 F250! I know I know. Don't worry I didn't junk my old trucks (especially since they get better mileage than the new one! LOL! ) Anyway the 97 and 93 Fords are both for sale. Trying to sell locally first. If that doesn't work, then I'll advertise 'em here soon. I...

    Duramax injectors....educate me

    Hi guys, I have been thinking of getting a newer truck. The newer Ford 6.0's are out, and Dodge can't seem to understand crewcab AND longbed. Anyway, I know the 01-03 Duramax's have had injector issues. Are the 04 and newer better? I do plan to modify for a little more power, but nothing...

    Is cavitation REALLY an issue in the PSD?

    I know the older 7.3 IDI's had real issues with this, and I have owned 2 idi's and 1 PSD. I have always maintained the SCA levels, with no issues, BUT I am looking at getting another truck (a 96). If this thing tests out with little or no SCA's should I run from it? I have never actually heard...

    Need Info, looking at some 06 and 07's

    I've been looking at a few 2006's and a few early 07's with the 5.9L. Out of these two years were there any majot issues? Any block issues, etc.? I know there was a cracking issue, but I thought that was on the second gens....sorry I've been a Ford guy for a while, so I'm a bit rusty on the...

    Looking for decent seat covers

    Until I can recover the seats in the 93 I'd like to cover them, but I want something that actual fits better than a trash bag! Since it is a crewcab, I'd like to find a front seat cover (bench) that actually has a back to it, so the back seat passengers aren't starring at a bunch of ropes...

    "Jake Brake" sound....only the ATS or others?

    I had an 88 with a wastegated ATS turbo. She was straight piped and the "jake brake" sound it made on decel was awesome. I honestly think that sound can cure erectial disfunction! Anyway, will a 7.3 idi with a Hypermax or Banks turbo sound like that too? I have only heard it on mine and a...

    Road Tax and ELECTRIC cars

    So, I got thinking about this. If someone runs Bio, WVO, WMO, ATF, etc. in our trucks, then unless they pay tax to someone, somewhere, they are breaking the law. Tax evasion. Then why on earth, are electric (not Hybrid) cars exempt from this. The tax man says all cars on the road need to pay for...

Can anyone measure their's for me and let me know what the center-to-center measurement is on one of the outside lights mounting holes.(passenger or driver's side) I would also like to know if the base uses a rubber gasket or foam.

    Anybody have a source for reardoor weatherstrip?

    Does anyone know where to get the beltline weatherstrip for the crewcabs other than Ford? Just curious, as I need to replace a bunch of rubber on the 93, but don't plan to do it for a while. Not sure how much longer Ford is going to keep these parts available. Jerry

    So I finally checked the coolant on the 93!

    My 268,000 mile project truck, just might be getting a Cummins for sure! I've been toying with what to do with this truck (almost sold it, then came to my senses!) I finally went out and dipped the radiator with a test strip. Ummm well, it's a 50/50 mix but that's about it! The other two pads of...

    12V questions

    Hey guys, I have a question regarding only the 1997 and 1998 Dodge's with the 12V. I know the 12V is not computer controlled, but isn't there a computer that monitors oil temp, coolant temp, etc? If anyone here has a 97 or 98 with the manual tranny, could you please tell me if there is an...

    Tach only moves while cranking

    On my 93, the tach will read about 300 rpm while cranking. Once the truck is running, the tach is dead. I even held the key in the "start" position after it started and it still dropped to 0. I did this thinking that power was getting cut to the guage in the run position. I also removed the...

    ATS versus Hypermax

    Okay, been a while since I was an IDI'er. My last IDI had an ATS turbo and a Hypermax intercooler. The power and throttle responce was great. Now that I have this 93, I'm not sure if I should turbo it with a Hypermax pulse turbo, or go with the ATS unit. I know that ATS has reworked theirs to...
