    a lower profile load E tire than 235/85-16?

    basically, dually tires are on my gooseneck, well, they rub the subframe smoking the tires in turns. they are kinda tall, just wondering if someone knew a lower profile size that would work, shave an inch off the height of the tire? google searches aren't much help thanks

    Cummins Big Cam 400 - intermittently dies?

    i think he mentioned he put on new lines... you aren't by chance running it low in the tanks? ran mine low once and it clogged the new filter in a heart beat and acted the same way. (old b.c. cummins 400)

    Ford CL9000 cab over (1978)

    Ford CL9000 cab over (1978) **FIXED** Old mayflower truck, i made the mistake trying to start it when it was just too cold. now the starter is sticking and I can't get to it. I can see how to raise the cab via a hydraulic pump, but can't figure out how to unlatch the cab to let it go up? I...

    $10,000 Rebate?????

    15k is about right for a 350 in the 50k ish range. figure this at about 8k+\-500 off for employee price and 7+/-500 for rebate. the higher the sticker, the greater the discount due to markup on luxury equipment

    Got a 6.0 today.

    forgot to mention, my partners 06er was a lot like my 05er, it gets along after all the times in the shop, but it will never be right without just flat out replacing the whole engine, which BG Ford keeps finding ways around.

    Got a 6.0 today.

    i'd be careful on doing any tunes on the 04, mine gave up on everything @20k miles. my 03 didn't get much farther than that. the 05er finally got head gaskets after going into the shop about 5 times each time getting a little more expensive band aid. the new head gasket still didn't get it to...

    My new L8000 dumper, any suggestions?

    ok someone mentioned today at church that I chip it...was that even possible in 91? I didn't think they were computer controlled yet, but hell, if I didn't know what engine it was, what do I know.

    My new L8000 dumper, any suggestions?

    ok, tried google, and doing a search for 6.6 diesels brings up everything chuby dumarax. argggh.

    My new L8000 dumper, any suggestions?

    its a shame btw, that it has to be so underpowered. everything else works like a champ. I've way overloaded the bed and it lifts it up like there's nothing back there. Its got a little shake @ 40 mph, but I think its because the right side front tire is @ 20 lbs low. The air line I tried...

    My new L8000 dumper, any suggestions?

    or another thought...an engine swap? how difficult would that be...and what sizes would match up

    My new L8000 dumper, any suggestions?

    ok, ebay... found some injectors on ebay (if they fit my truck) but it has a huge write up on other mods he did to the truck that theoretically added power to his trucks... can you guys read this and tell me what you think...

    My new L8000 dumper, any suggestions?

    it hauls the load, but seems very underpowered. what do you expect from a cummins tho, right? LOL anywho, the hydros are always on via a pulley attached to the engine along a shaft sticking out thru the front to a pump resting/attached to the plow assembly. I figure thats gotta be...

    how much weight is too much

    pulling @24~25k behind my 05' treefiddy(350) was too much to slow down. picked up a 91 Ford L8000 dual tandem dumper in KY for 9000 delivered and full of fuel to nashville. I'll post some picks.

    getting rid of pos6.0

    I no longer work for Ford, via buyout, so I can safely with conscience say, piss on the 6.0. 3 and out I say. 03 was a piece, 04 just up and quit, and 05 shoulda got an engine replacement, but 4600 for a head gasket instead... steering clear from anything 6.0ish. dump truck time I reckon...
