    Question What did you do to your truck today?

    New Family Member Just brought home a 2002 F350 CC LB 4x4 32k miles. Most everything is original including rubber products, so I have some work ahead but it's the fun kind of work:)

    At 233K, suggestions on what to replace??

    Thanks guys, I don't drive it quite like I stole it, but I do use it and expect it to be reliable. The only other thing that came to mind was the electric fuel pump. I know you don't have a crystal ball but.... what do ya think??

    At 233K, suggestions on what to replace??

    With 233K on my truck and no intension of replacing it yet, what critical items should I be looking at replacing (on my schedule, not a roadside break down). I've already done the water pump, alternator, starter, starter relay and belts/rad. hoses. Oh, and the trans. I don't know what type...

    Equalizer hitch

    Under 8000lbs? If your trailer is around 8k your in good shape. There's some adjustment in the bars on most units. Be sure to read the instructions when you install it and you'll be good. Load equalizing hitches can make towing a pleasure. Be sure to look into a sway bar as well. Have...

    Wastegate accuator

    My boost tops out at 19.5 lbs. Is that about what I should expect with the equipment I have?

    Wastegate accuator

    Now that I finally have a boost gauge, what's the advantage of the aftermarket wastegate accuator? As I understand it, the stock unit allows boost to sort of leak out depriving the engine of the full potential of the boost generated, if that makes sense. I don't want a race truck, just to...

    No throttle peddle response

    This morning I started my truck, let it warm for a 3-4 minutes, got in to go but had not throttle response. It was idling normally, but when I put it in reverse and applied throttle, it just continued to idle. After pumping the throttle a few times it picked it up and away I went. Seem to...

    Question Drive tires on steer axle??

    Usually the 19.5's wear like iron. Sounds like everything is in order, I'm not sure what to make of the excessive front wear.

    CCV Thought

    With all the varied opinions about the ccv mods, I'll be doing some research on the Racor unit. The 6.0 I/C must be a big advantage the way everyone talks about them. What's the difference between the stock 7.3 and 6.0? Thanks for your input.

    CCV Thought

    Without some sort of ccv mod, what's the inside of my intercooler look like?? How much of an effect does the contaminated intake system have on the performance of a well maintained truck with 200k on it?

    Question Drive tires on steer axle??

    I run 19.5's mostly unladen and have about 45k on them. They're "drivers" all around because of the snow in the mountains. I haven't had a wear problem on the fronts or rears, but I did ask Rickson about putting the drivers on all 4 prior to buying them and was told no problem. Are you...

    CCV Thought

    Are the line sizes larger enough to avoid back pressure problems?

    OEM Wheel-HELP ASAP

    Can't give you an answer on the rears fitting, but for what it's worth the offset on the 99-04 is .25" and the 05 and up is 1.41".

    lopey idle?

    Dave, do you use 5w40 all year and change back to 15w40 during the heat of summer? I've always used Valvoline Premium Blue 15w40 and change it about every 3500 miles. How do you think the 5w40 will fair in Hemet when it's hot? And what about the oil would cause the miss??

    lopey idle?

    My 99 just started this rough idle thing when cold, but smooths out when it warms up. If it's not an injector, what else should I look at?

    What's the JOB # ?

    Thanks for the detailed explanation. The dealers don't have many trucks on their lots to choose from, so I'll keep looking for one with a later (#2 or #3).

    What's the JOB # ?

    On the window sticker, it says "Job #1 Build Identifier". I thought I remembered reading some where it has something to do with the trucks production. I would like to find out if later "Job #s" mean they would be a better truck, with corrections made over the earlier ones.

    What's the JOB # ?

    I trying to make an informed descision about replacing my 99PSD with an 08, but could use some information on what it is I'm looking at. If some of you could give me a good steer, I'd appreciate it.
