    Hutch mod questions?

    Thanks for all the info guys. As far as removing the bed, im guessing its just removing the four bolts in the bed and disconnecting the filler neck? And powerboatr, are you saying that if you do the regulated return, the in tank mods are pointless? Big joe, I guess i might as well...

    Hutch mod questions?

    I'm gonna be doing the hutch mod soon and thought I would ask a few questions here first. 1. Are there any special tools I will need? 2. I have seen a hutch mod kit on strictly diesel. Are there any other sites that I should consider for quality/ price? 3. What noticeable difference...

    Ok. Thanks big joe. You are right on not spending too much. I plan on upgrading to the new 6.7 in a few years, so I dont want to dump a wad of cash in my current truck. Whats your opinion on the HRx?

    Truck is paid for!! Now for some upgrades!! Help!!

    Well, I finally got my truck paid off and I can start doing all the mods I have been wanting to for the past three years. One part of me wants to do some cosmetic upgrades(headlights, tail lights, bumpers etc), but we all know a pretty truck that isnt reliable is just plain stupid. I'm not...

    Time fur tires!! need suggestions.

    well, I made the trip to longview and am very happy(for the most part) with my new tires. I had the new coopers and wheels installed, drove it straight to the carwash, parked it to look at it and just couldnt see myself driving it as it sat. So, I had them put the coopers on my stock wheels, and...

    Time fur tires!! need suggestions.

    yeah, I think I will too. I didnt know that Cooper is one of the only tire companies(besides specialty tire companies) that produce exclusively for the aftermarket so they don't compromise on quality or performance to meet a price or the criteria of a vehicle manufacturer, which means you get...

    Big Drop in Fuel Mileage

    well, I installed all four rotors and pad sets and wow!! what a difference!! it stops on a dime now and my fuel mileage is looking better as well. Upon replacing the rotors, the only bad one was my rear passenger. The inside brake did look like it had almost froze and started eating the rotor...

    Time fur tires!! need suggestions.

    well, I have decided to get wheels and tires. After much thought, I have decided to go with 285/75/16 Cooper Discoverer ATP's. They have great reviews and I think they look great too. They also come with a 55,000 warranty. Plus, at $160 per tire, it's hard to pass up. The wheels I decided to...

    Big Drop in Fuel Mileage

    Ok. Thanks dave. I'm still learning here. Is that because i have a straight front axel and not IFS?

    Big Drop in Fuel Mileage

    well, Its time for brakes, and I'm gonna spend the extra buck and get frozen rotors and pads from our sponsor on here. Big Joe, after searching threads on here, I found your thread when you did your rotors and brakes. what other parts should I have on hand that are cheap to replace while I have...

    Time fur tires!! need suggestions.

    Yeah I figured 305/70/16 will negate the rubbing issue. I'm just wondering how the 295's would look compared to my 315's. Anybody on here running this size?

    Time fur tires!! need suggestions.

    I could've swore that 265/75/R16 were the stock size. pretty sure that is what on the door sticker.

    Fuel bowl leak again?

    sorry for the very late update, I have been super busy and forgot all about it. But I solved the leak after replacing the beveled gasket with one from McMaster Carr O-rings. Hasnt leaked since.

    Time fur tires!! need suggestions.

    well, It's that time again. I am currently running 315/75/16 Duratracs on the stock 16X7 wheel. My F350 is stock with a front end level. I love the look of these and they have been great tires overall. I do have some crowning wear because of the rim width. But, that was expected when I bought...

    Fuel bowl leak again?

    So I look under the truck today(as i try to daily just to check for leaks) and I see a puddle of diesel. After popping the hood and checking the underside, it appears that it could possibly be the fuel bowl drain valve orings. I replace these 25,000 miles ago in april of 2010 with the blue...

    Fuel gauge malfunction

    Tman, i know exactly what youre talking about as far as how it reacts to the incline or decline. Where would i check for a loose ground at?

    Fuel gauge malfunction

    So, over the past four years of owning my truck, I have had a few fuel guage anomolies. Maybe 2 or three. Usually consisting of me filling up at a half tank(like i always do cause i still havent got around to doing the in-tank fuel mod) and the guage doesnt go back up to full. It takes an hour...

    Big Drop in Fuel Mileage

    Ok. Thanks for the tips guys. I was actually planning on doing new brakes and rotors soon anyway. My truck definitely could use them. While towing, stopping can be kinda scary. I would like to upgrade them while Im at it. Anybody have suggestions for decently priced upgrades?
