    Fan wiring idea

    Looking to wire a single Taurus fan on my SD using a thermostatic relay and an AC relay. Simple enough, but I am wanting the thermostatic relay to be based on tranny temp. Here's my thinking... Moving >30 the only reason the fan would need to be on while moving is because I'm towing and need...

    No Fan

    whew...glad I don't live there...it's was 24* this morning and with no block heater it was a nice smokey startup session. I'm afraid two Taurus fans when turned off will be a restriction on the highway, so we'll see. I'll update as it gets colder. Jesse

    No Fan

    Try a fan from a Mark VIII or Thunderbird (with the 4.6) they are 18.5x22 rated at almost 4000 cfm's. The Taurus fan from the boxy ones is about the same size and flows about 3500 (I think my numbers are right...early morning). I think I am going to put on one Taurus van verticlaly and see how...

    What is too many miles?

    I bought mine for $10500 out the door with 178K and I now have 219k...no regrets besides wishing I had bought a 6 speed. You need to look at the vehicle as is if it has 92k on it. The only thing you have left to wear out is the front and rear end now. Unless they have been changed, you are...

    Swapping PCM's into Early 99?

    Got to drive it unloaded...feels much better at WOT....but I don't like how it shifts into OD and locks up at the same time...might be the SCMT doing that though. Overall A+, now to buy the chip from Jody! Jesse

    Swapping PCM's into Early 99?

    Well my first impression was of driving a stock truck...had to dive half-throttle just to get the truck to move lol, and it only made 22# vs 28# with the SCMT. It held a gear and didn't lock up in the high rpm's as it should and shifted and locked up when part-throttle like it should instead of...

    Swapping PCM's into Early 99?

    I performed the swap tonight...unfortunately it was >30* out and I was not dressed for the occasion, but anywho...Only got it installed and started to see if it works and it did. Going to drive it tomorrow for the first time in 40k miles with stock programming to see if some bucking issues go...

    Shackle lift, front or rear of leaf spring?

    Think I figured it out, this kit replaces the part that connects the rear of the leaf spring to the frame with a longer "arm". Jesse

    I am installing a shackle kit on the front of the Super Duper and received no instructions. Will this be installed on the front or the rear of the front leaf spring? As soon as y'all let me know, I'm putting 'er in the air! Thanks, Jesse

    Oil filter change interval(with Oil Bypass)

    It's working great. Blackstone said that the oil change at 5k was fine with just the standard full-flow filter. The system was easy to install, no leaks, and it looks like it's going to increase my change interval. It also is handy because it puts both filters on the same boss which I mounted...

    Oil filter change interval(with Oil Bypass)

    I got my oil analysed at 5k, then bought an Amsoil bypass filtration system and analysed it again...big difference. Using RotellaT 15w-40 they recommended going another 4k and then send in another sample because they think it could be ran longer than that. They also said there appears to be no...

    Also, with those big rig tires, what if you get in your backyard in the rain (if 2wd) or need to pull something through some mud (4wd) don't those bog rig tires suck for anything off the road? Just wondering, Jesse

    Mod day: PCM and shackles

    Installing new PCM and 2" lift shackles on the front. Will I need new shocks for the 2"? I just bought new replacement ones, just need to know if I need longer ones. I don't do any four-wheeling. Also, where is the PCM located? Do I need to unhook the batteries to exchange the PCM? Also...
