    Got an 08 350. Did not come with fog lights, want them. Has anybody done this or know what I need to do to complete this task?

    Oil Leak @ Transmission??

    So I gotta ask Mastercraft - and others that have had the cab yanked; Did the truck go back together right after all the work was done to it? Did you pick up any rattles or vibrations due to the cab being yanked?

    Oil Leak @ Transmission??

    Mastercraft - Thanks for the info,. Yeah the oil is comming mainly through that little rubber gasket facing the front of the truck (picture 01). I believe it just spreads over the bottom of the transmission due to wind while driving. So you do think that it is a leaking turbo pedistal? How...

    Oil Leak @ Transmission??

    Good to know its not a huge deal, however, I do in fact have a concrete driveway and I need to be sure to keep it clean so I don't get spots. Does anybody have a fix for this by chance or a recommendation of where to start?

    Oil Leak @ Transmission??

    He everyone. Got a quick question - Is this normal, or has anybody else had this trouble before? - see pictures. You are looking just behind the oil pan on the transmission housing.

    Fuel Filter(s)

    Good writeup ponyexpress! I have performed this procedure twice now, and the first time I used a big crecent wrench and channel locks to get the frame filter off (needed both due to limitations and got ~ 1/16th of a turn each time). I remember spending about twenty minutes just trying to unscrew...

    Advice on new truck and tuners

    You DO in fact have to have a programmer to eliminate the DPF. That is true, I guess I was referring to "chips and programmers" assuming that they are bought for performance usage. There is a chip they sell that will eliminate the regeneration cycle ONLY and will not touch your power curve (from...

    Advice on new truck and tuners

    Matt, First diesel i've owned, 08 6.4L. I love it. First of all, I am the type of person that will never chip a diesel (or gasser for that matter) unless I either had a lot of engine AND transmission work done before hand, or had a seperate bank account just for repairs down the road, because...

    Winter / Cold Weather Oil

    Thanks for the input, however I still have not been 100% sold on anything. I do not want to go synthetic yet becuase I want to "break in" the engine for a longer period of time. It has 18k on it. I am hesitant to just leave 15-40 in it because I do not always have the option of pluggin it in. So...
