    I want 4wd

    i converted mine just almost 2 years ago. it was the only way i was gonna get me a 4wd. i've got a dually, and didn't wanta buy a single wheel 4wd and then put a dually conversion on it. i found a 1987 ford f-350 that was well rotted, picked it up for $500. that gave me almost everything needed...

    Centurian Power Stroke?

    there was one in a local truck trader on the front cover. a 97 with only 22,000 miles. they wanted $27,000 for it. if i were rich i would have bought it and put it in storage for when my truck that i have now quits moving.

    Truck has NO POWER, can't spin wheels in wet grass...

    i'd guess that the idm is toasted. when mine went it would run, but had a bad shake at idle after being warmed up, and it was also down on power. i didn't have gauges at the time so i don't know about boost pressure's.

    4x4 Parts

    the only better thing would be to find a F-350 so you had the dana 60 already. all my 4wd stuff came from a '87 ford f-350.

    Novice: 1997 f250hd questions.

    generally all fuel is the same, try to buy it where the truckers are. the more fuel a station pumps the fresher(sp) it is, and the less chance of water. the big ones are probably rotella 15-40(what i use) and delo 500, i'm sure there's a couple of others. as far as synthetic's probably...

    i have pm'd him, he sent me back a very short message, stating that ford had updated the seal and to just try putting a new one back in. he was having some computer problems so we really didn't get a chance to talk.

    it's a local track built in the middle of a farm. back in the 50's when it was origanally(sp) built it was 1/4 mile, as the cars got faster, the shutdown lanes were getting to be to short so they dropped it to 1/8th. the track went dormant until 2000 when it got reopened, over the years part of...

    front tranny seal (need help)

    i kinda doubt that it was caused by any worn parts. tranny's only a 1 1/2 years old, built by faubion motorsports. i filled it with fluid and it still worked. i've got the tranny out and i'm replacing the seal, we'll see what happens. thanks for the tips guy's
