    ISO: 00-04 OEM Track Bar Bracket

    Hello, I'm in the process of re-working my front suspension and am looking to replace the 2" drop track bar bracket (came a leveling kit) with a stock bracket and adjustable track bar. Does anybody have a OEM bracket left over from their 4" or greater lift installation? Thanks! Lynn

    Pro-Comp Prorunner Dual Steering Stabilizer

    Does anyone have any experience with this kit on a 99-03 Super Duty? I have damaged two steering stabilizers on my truck in recent history due to the stock location hanging so low. The last incident seriously bent the mount on the axle. I would like to fabricate a bracket that would locate the...

    Aftermarket Fuel Tanks

    Injectors.

    So how was you experience with single shots in your '99? Did these claims prove true for your truck?

    Injectors.

    Let us know how the fuel mileage is after they are all purged and you've logged some miles? How is the smoke? Not too bad in the stock setting?

    Injectors.

    I will be very interested as well. I "lurk", listen, and read quite a bit on here, but since my truck is just about to surpass 205,000 miles and I am setting out on a 2,700 mile drive in a few days, I thought I would chime in. Like who? Suppliers and tuners? I'm very interested in the...

    Turbo upgrades

    I haven't done any heavy towing with my GTP38R yet, but it lowered my empty truck highway EGT 100-150 degrees. The old turbo had Banks' turbine housing and compressor wheel installed. On a side note: For my tastes the sound alone is almost worth the money.

    stuck thermostat?

    I'm curious, do you think the low transmission temperature was unrelated to the clogged coolant filter? Perhaps only a result of the low outside air temperatures?

    F350 temporarily decommisioned

    The suspension link is called the track bar and your Track Bar Mounting Bracket is what is broken. Yours might not be stock, but rather part of your lift. I know several companies sell them and provide them with lift kits to correct for the geometery of a lifted vehicle. Here is a link to a...

    Changing Valve Cover Gasket

    Any rods of wisdom, tips, or things to look out for? My driver's side valve cover is leaking a fair amount of oil from the rear and I plane to replace the gasket this weekend.

    Clutch goes to the floor

    I had my master cylinder go out on me on the road a few months ago. I changed it in the parts store parking lot with a Chilton's manual as a guide. I remember thinking the parts were kind of rinky-dink in their construction, the hose just sort of snapped on the master cylinder, don't think I...

    Injectors getting louder. Is one on the way out?

    Yeah, I guess it goes to show how prevalant an issue it is. Honestly I didn't intend for air/fuel issues to come up, and even now I think my problem is high pressure oil. I won't know until the ICP sensor gets in though. I just hope no damage has been done to my injectors, they sure are loud...

    Injectors getting louder. Is one on the way out?

    I already did the in tank work (cutting out the valve and using a compression fitting to extend the pick up tube) and have replace the hose from the pick up to the hard line, it just sounded like some were replacing the entire hard line with hose. Last time I was in there I looked into the...

    Injectors getting louder. Is one on the way out?

    I was thinking, this: KCM S.S. HPX Line (99-03) UPDATE: After thinking about RammerTide's suggestion of unplugging the ICP sensor for a few minutes of idle, I tried it this afternoon. Low and behold, the inside of the plug was full of oil. I'm sure that wasn't helping anything, new part...

    Injectors getting louder. Is one on the way out?

    Does anyone else run amsoil synthetic? Any issues there? I'll check the water/meth, but I haven't noticed any signs of it leaking boost pressure anywhere. I agree, I've been running the Wal-Mart two-stroke oil for some time and am quite happy with it. I don't have that fancy...

    To my knowledge, the injectors are original. 182,000 miles.

    Injectors getting louder. Is one on the way out?

    I've had a slightly uneven idle intermittently for a long time, even after Ford changed the CPS. When that did nothing I unplugged the harness from as many sensors as I could get to check for moisture, cleaned them and reassembled them with a little plug grease to repel future moisture. This...

    Diesel Site Coolant Filter installation issue

    So I ended up moving nothing and squeezing the coolant filter in. Yes, the filter contacts both the radiator hose and the air intake, but it filters my engine coolant. Anyways, I thought some people debating about buying a coolant kit might want to see these horrible pictures I took (it was...

    Question EGT temps, what's high?

    My probe is in the driver side exhaust manifold. Not the best for averaging both cylinder banks I suppose. Highway driving at 70 MPH empty I see 650 to 750 depending on the winds (its windy in south Texas). I put the chip on extreme and floored it once, 35 psi out of a stock turbo was...

    203* thermostat...???

    My exhaust smells better. That is the biggest improvement I have noticed. A little smoother when fully warm for sure, but the big rig smell is the real gain :sweet
