    Im looking at getting DieselManors Isspro 3 gauge setup. However, I am unsure what boost gauge to get. They list a 30, 40 and 60 boost option. Any recommendations? Thanks

    Steering wheels and airbags

    I thought about that. Matching up the colors and the the quality of the finished product are two things that really worry me.

    Steering wheels and airbags

    Just to clarify, the dvd says the airbag comes with the cover? Or the wheel comes with the cover? Thanks

    Steering wheels and airbags

    Ok, Im looking to replace my steering wheel. Ive got the solid black XLT and planning on getting a King Ranch, which we all know is tan and leather. Ive looked around and see most come without the airbag. They say to use your old airbag. My question is this. Is the center cover...

    Burlewood trim upgrades done

    Stephen, Did your door panels already have the factory wood trim? (Lariat) Just wondering if you started from scratch or had to match wood grain. Im looking to do the doors to match the factory wood and the door switch bezels. Looks good.

    05 tan carpet

    Is the tan carpet in the 05 models the same color as the 04 and older? Med. parchment tan is the color in the older models. I recently looked at a truck on the lot that had a much lighter carpet but Im not sure if it was an 06 or 07. Im wondering when they made the switch to that lighter tan...

    Consider this tranny configuration

    I firmly believe in that. However, I also have a budget. And Im stretching my budget to get to the $3500. Im just looking for alternatives. Believe me, if I had the cash Id be sitting in Brians parking lot waiting for my turn. Another thing to keep in mind. Im not hooked up to a trailer...

    Consider this tranny configuration

    The way it was puking up fluid the other night Id say it wouldnt make it around the block. And to complicate things I just got a call from a friend. Seems he has a good strong tranny out of an 01 I can pick up for $700.00. No mods. Could look at beefing that one up.

    Hint: Check out my location. Ever heard of it? Neither have any qualified Super Duty tranny shops.

    Consider this tranny configuration

    Im not trying to be cheap. Just trying to get as much tranny for the money that I HAVE. So after lots and lots of calls and reading Ive gotten just about a price on everything from everyone. Here is a possible scenario Im considering. New tranny from Ford, then throw on the BTS Torque...

    Help me with these codes

    Ok, I got the scanner to finally read codes 0733, 0603 and 1783. The tranny seemed to be having difficulty shifting from 2nd to 3rd. I manually shifted and worked a little better. Not great but better. At one point it would not go into reverse. Then suddenly began to work, only to find a...

    Torque converter or whole tranny???

    Hey Neil, Sorry to see you are having problems also. However, please start your own thread. It is difficult to recieve sound feedback when people start hijacking threads with their own problems. Just trying to make it easier for everyone and figure out who is answering who. Thanks and I...

    Torque converter or whole tranny???

    Well, it has gone from bad to worse. It was running ok as long as you didnt get on the pedal. Now it is having trouble from 2nd to 3rd best I can tell. Seems to shift in and out of gear and back and forth. Feels like it has a little jerking to it and twice made a loud raspy sound. Kinda...

    Torque converter or whole tranny???

    That's the way I feel about most things, most of the time. However, I also like to have a good working understanding of why Im paying more. Especially since most dealer parts are usually higher than anything out there. You can see why Id want to know as much as I can before I spend almost...

    Torque converter or whole tranny???

    Anyone know what those two codes are? On a side note, Ive started looking at torque converters. Just incase. I got a price of $385 for a OEM convertor. I got a quote for a B-D for $795 and Suncountry is $1295. What makes the SC worth that much more? That's not even installed. Just...

    Torque converter or whole tranny???

    I scanned earlier. Found no memory codes. The KOEO test found P0605 Internal Control module rom error. The switch test said I had P1780 Trans control SW out of range.

    Torque converter or whole tranny???

    I can get access to a good quality Snap On scanner. Ill ask for it tomorrow. The rattle was pointed out to me by an ex Dealership Diesel mechanic. I would have never noticed if he hadnt of pointed it out. He told me he thought he remembered a recall on them at one time. Too late for me...

    Torque converter or whole tranny???

    Ive run into this problem a few times lately. If I get on the pedal to pass someone the truck feels like it jumps out of gear revs but wont go. Let off acc. and starts accelerating again but only if I go easy. I havent had any problems as long as it isnt a hard acceleration. Ive been told you...
