    Talk about the 7.3L CPS Here!

    You don't need to get the CPS from Ford. You can buy from international, just make sure that you get the CPS for the T444e (The T444e is the 7.3 powerstroke diesel) the DT466 is a different engine, and is not the proper cps for our trucks. The local ford dealership wanted $185+tax...

    Front Hub Replacement Pics

    I've changed so many of those sealed hubs that I've managed to get it down to about an 1:20 per side. I never remove the tie rods either (unless I'm replacing the ball joints.) If there is still a good bit of play in your knuckles, you might be due for a set of ball joints as well.

    Talk about the 7.3L CPS Here!

    My original CPS just gave out this past thursday at 141,100miles. If the replacement that I got for $90 at the international dealer lasts as long, I'm not going to complain a lot.

    Knock, Knock......

    Oh, I have no intentions of screwing with the cold operation timing. The noise when its cold never bothered me because diesels don't like to run cold. Thats just the nature of the beast. I've very happy with the way she's currently running. Only changes I have planned any time soon are the...

    Knock, Knock......

    I also did the pre pump/intank mods, and the regulated return system. Made a huge difference in the way my 7.3 runs. Very quiet, especially once its at operating temerature.

    Hi-res Satellite pics of the devastation.

    http://ngs.woc.noaa.gov/katrina/KATRINA0000.HTM Click on the one of the squares, then on one of the smaller squares for the different satellite pics. The I-10 bridge going across the mouth of lake Pontachatrain did the same thing that the Escambia Bay bridge (also I-10) in Pensacola did...

    truck is down, please help

    The truck is a 2000 f-350 7.3 6 speed. I installed the return regulator mod about 900 miles ago, along with the pre pump and in tank mods. Went to the store tonight, and when I came out, truck started, but felt like it was missing. I checked my fuel pressure gaguge (which I believe is fairly...

    Water temp. gauge

    I'm with you on the gauges. With all of the interior customizing I've done on my F-350, I'm starting to consider grafting an 96-98 style chevrolet instrument cluster to replace the stock cluster. Aside from modifiying the dash to make the cluster fit, it seems like it would be a pretty...

    Dually Tire Recomendations.....

    I've run delta sierradials (made by cooper) on my 2000 F-350. Originally I had LT285/75R16, when the truck was SRW, and then 255/85R16 after I finished converting it into a dually. If your looking for a slightly taller (33") tire, the 255/85R16 will fit well if you have the alloy wheels...

    Dealer Prices

    Thats bad, even for a dealership.... Our local dealership charges $39 to change the filter on a 7.3. Even at that price, as easy as the filter change is, I'll do it myself, thanks. :roflmao
