    Un-Lifting a 5" Lift Kit

    My new Excursion has a 5" lift kit (front springs and ilnks, rear blocks). Could I start pulling out small leaves of the front springs until I get to the height I want? Kind of like "subtract-a-leaf" instead of add a leaf.

    Question Diesel swap

    ok, I found a 2000 4x4 excursion v10. Nice as hell, dirt cheap, reman v10, auto. What would you guys do? Or would you do any swap at all (not worth it)? I'm assuming the v10 trans will not bolt up to the 7.3l?

    Question Considering a 6.0

    Hi guys, this is my first time over here on the 6.0 forum. I've been in a 99 7.3l for a long time but its starting to get fairly beat up. I was going to look at an 03 to replace it but he says its got the 6.0. Now all I know about the 6.0 firsthand is from a fleet of ambulances we have at...

    Question Diesel swap

    Aww, i forgot about that. The frame does kick up by the fuel tank. Thanks for the heads up. Would an Excursion body sit on my frame?

    Question Diesel swap

    Yea, I like the idea of swapping cabs and beds. I got some money in the springs and chassis on my truck. If I found a nice bodied high mileage gasser in the 99-03 range can you think of any problems I'd hit? I know the pcm and instrument cluster need to remain together unless I get a...

    Question Diesel swap

    What trucks would I be able to swap my 99 F250 7.3L and 6spd into? I'm talking bolt in or close to bolt in and drive. My truck is starting to get rough but the motor/driveline are still very good condition. I'm thinking to get a gas motor low rust version of my truck and swap out the drivetrains.

    Humor Slow shifter

    I'll give that Red-Line, Full Syn ATF a try. I guess I'm not looking for mustang slam through the gears shifting, but big joe called it- I have to get it just right or there's grindage/nothing. It's really picky.

    Humor Slow shifter

    OK, so my buddy has a 04ish 4x4 duramax 2500 with tons of upgrades- intake, exhaust stacks, programmed, 6000 dollar auto transmission, much more i'm sure. I'm not impressed though. its damn fast, but my seat-o-the-pants-ometer says I'm pulling harder in 3rd gear. I've got basic CAI, 4"...

    7.3L vs gas motors

    Guys, I don't care about MPG. I drive a SD and an 89 5.0. As long as it's closer to 20mpg than 10 I'm happy. I was just saying that I'm gonna buy a truck and would connsider better mpg when purchasing it. I don't need 4wd but I'd take one for the right price. Once I have it I'm not worried...

    using the snap on mt2500

    OK, you're using the programmable cartridges. I wanted to get those but they're expensive. I think yours can be used on anything up to 2004 model year.

    Clutch Bleeding

    Hi guys, I have a problem with a dead spot at the top of my clutch pedal. For the first 1-2" it feels like the only resistance is the spring on the clutch pedal. Then, especially when its cold out, it feels like it grinds a little bit going into gears. It's done this since i replaced the...
