    2001 F-250 Turbo refresh

    Wow! No info on exhaust gaskets or what the seals are on the HPOP line connections at the heads?

    2001 F-250 Turbo refresh

    So I have wet oil blowing out my exhaust pipe under towing load, spraying out in a fan pattern across my flat trailer and the motorcycles on it. Methinks a turbo seal is the likely culprit. So I have in hand a rebuild kit, and a Billet compressor wheel, but in looking over my intended project I...

    4X4 Front bearing hubs

    Yup. Hubs shift in and out with the dash switch, ABS light stays out (after the start auto check) And I seem to get better and more distinct air flow from the A/C-Heat-Def system than before. I think due to the bad vacuum hoses. I hope the info helps another member. I had to hunt a bit to find...

    4X4 Front bearing hubs

    So here's the update, 1 new bearing/hub assy, 10 year warranty online for under 66 bucks, comes with a new O-ring for the outside, and a new inner spindle bearing already in it.

Had a little noise on the right side, and found the inside of the manual hub was dry. grease...

    Hard steering

    Well it was the pump. I don't believe I've ever had one actually wear out before. Leaked, bearings fail, but never worn out. Easy fix, under 50 bucks from O'Reilly's, lifetime warranty. Hard to beat. I did find the old fluid was red which would seem to indicate that the last owner had used ATF...

    Hard steering

    I have a 2001 F-250 SD 7.3 that drives fine, brakes feel good, my issue is steering in a parking lot. It gets very hard (impossible) to steer at low engine speed, especially when using the brakes. I have to jockey back and forth, or put the trans in neutral and rev the engine to turn the wheels...

    New to me 2001 F-250 7.3

    My first 7.3. The old Harley F-150 just wasn't quite enough to pull a tandem trailer and Razor up and down (well, down was good) the hills to go riding in UT and AZ from NV. Like my truck, have a couple of minor issues. Looking for some advice. Overhead console does not work. I was able to...
