    Drivetrain differences from '03 F250 4x4 to '03 F350 4x4

    Thanks folks! I bought the F250 based on price....I had a couple days off and was able to pick apart each truck, and the only differences that I could see were the GVW ratings (springs) and the badges. Couldn't see paying a 2,000 premium for 800 pounds of capacity and badges, of course I...

    Drivetrain differences from '03 F250 4x4 to '03 F350 4x4

    Both rear's have 3.73's and limited slip........both have tow hitches and sway bars. The front diffs are the mystery for the moment...

    Drivetrain differences from '03 F250 4x4 to '03 F350 4x4

    Hi all, Sorry if this has been posted before. I'm looking at two trucks, both 2003 7.3's....both crew cab longbeds, both 4wd. One is a F250 and one is a F350. Other than the springs, are there any significant drivetrain differences. I know the older F250's had different front...

    Back from the Formula None race & I'm PISSED!!

    A total embarrassment for F1. Michelin screwed up the tire selection for sure, but there are too many discrepancies in stories to blame any one party. I see Bridgestone garnering more teams after this. But hey, what a day to drive a Jordan or Minardi--talk about getting points handed to...

    Well, I'm back...and we got a new toy!

    Sorry for your loss... Remember to keep the boat in tip-top shape and use it a lot, out of respect for it's previous owner. I "inherited" a 1960 Richardson 30ft cruiser. Steel hull, wooden top half, pushed by twin Ford 312 V8's--even has T-bird valve covers. :eek: :sweet A big, fat...

    Jackson Guilty or Innocent?

    I think he's guilty of being weird, but doubt he actually molested any of those kids. He has serious mental issues that need to be addressed, but there have been too many people coming & going out of his estate to keep something that serious under wraps for this many years. But true that...

    Water pump Failure.... Help

    A late reply, sorry.... My experience with Eastern Industries pumps is good. Have used many of their parts for our diesel & other applications with no problems. On the box it'll state "Assembled in U.S.A from components mfr'd in China" but IMHO the quality is right up there with the $250+...

    What do you wish someone made?

    In-side-of-the-bed tool boxes, like my '79 F250 has.

    Whats the?

    I graduated from high school in '95. Most guys want fast cars at that age & hold a special place in their hearts for whatever the hottest ride was at that time in their lives. Me on the other hand, being from a logging family & growing up in western Washington, *my* ride of choice was a...

    Friday The 13th.............

    What started for me at 2:45pm as an easy day with only a couple 5 minutes "fixes" to do has turned into an absolute cluster-**** including but not limited to broken conveyor belts, stripped keyways, broken chains, broken shafts, a tipped-over 15,000lb forklift, and a high pressure metal halide...

    New guy, old truck....

    Thanks for the welcomes!!! :thanks Not only have I owned them but also worked as a diesel mechanic in various heavy truck dealers for about 8 years. One of the dealers sold Fords so I'm intimately familiar with these engines--remember the fiascos with oil leaks and 7 injector o-ring...

    New guy, old truck....

    Hi all, Found this place off OB. Come from the TDR, too. Have a Dodge also, but it's going on the sell block shortly. Bought the Ford to replace it for the time being. Anyways, my '97 is all stock down to the hubcaps. Need to do a lil routine repair to the injector o-rings, glow...
