    OEM Wheel-HELP ASAP

    You need OEM wheels from a 99-04. The Offset is different on the 05+ trucks. Wheels from a 99-04 will fit on an 05+ but wheels from an 05+ will not work on a 99-04 without spacers. The wheels in your pics are DEFINATELY off of an 05 or later.

    Oil Leak????

    You can go to any ford dealer and request an oasis report. It will tell you the complete service history of any work done by any Ford Dealership. I believe them to be free of charge.

    Head Studs while engine is out?

    I would talk to the tech first and feel him out to see if he is remotely interested and then offer him some cash. You might be pleasantly surprised!

    Question Any long term probs with unplugged EGR?

    There are 2 reasons i am unplugged. 1. I dont belive that recycling EXHAUST gasses back into your intake can be beneficial to your motor. If oxygen is crucial to our engines than why recycle gas that contains almost no oxygen back into it?? 2. Egr valves have been problematic (dirty...

    6.0 will not start cold

    You might want to try an International dealer because if I can remember correctly both the heater and cord can be bought for under a $100.00. I think the install is really simple too..... Also I do believe that Synthetic 5w40 is also supposed to help it start better in the cold. I...

    Question Any long term probs with unplugged EGR?

    Thanks for the posting the pic...:sweet Yes you are right the truck needs to be off and COLD (to ensure the EGR valve is closed when you unplug it). Jason- If you down at your oil filter(standing in front of the truck) You will see the back end of a pigtail at about 7 oclock(in relation to...

    selling engine maybe

    Try DESTROKED: Cummins Conversions for a little help with mounting the Cummins of your choice(12V,24V, or CR) to your 5r110. They also have a lot of the other parts you need along with some great INFO!:sweet

    Question Any long term probs with unplugged EGR?

    Mine has been unplugged for awhile now, and (Knock on Wood) I have not seen any adverse side effects.....At least not yet. Also worth mentioning is that I do plan on buying one of the complete egr delete kits very soon. On edit....I have roughly 20K miles on her since unplugging the EGR.

    Unknown loss of coolant

    YES!!! BOTH (silver60 and bubbantx) of you with coolant loss problems need to invest in a coolant bypass filter from dieselsite once you get your trucks back!

    Help Needed 6.0 down and no one knows why

    The only reason I ask about the original owner is to find out if he knows what has already been done to the truck if it was owned by someone else(taken in for recalls, TSBs, routine maintenance, Etc..) Yes you are correct the powertrain warranty is 5 yrs/100k miles and follows the truck from...

    Question 6.0L Poor Milage

    I have found that fuel quality has a big effect on economy. When I use Speedway or other "discount" stations My economy is noticably lower than when i use a station such as shell or bp. Also, I you havent tried running tcw-3 oil in your fuel you might want to try it. Most people have...

    Help Needed 6.0 down and no one knows why

    That connector probably wouldnt be good unless they replaced it with the upgraded part..I would first ask your dealership for a copy of your oasis report so you know exactly what has been done to your truck. Being that you are outta warranty their guessing could end up costing you a lot. On...

    Help Needed 6.0 down and no one knows why

    If you are having problems starting it while its hot, I would think it might be related to your HPOP connector. 05-06 is known for having leaking fittings that make it very hard to start when warm. I believe there is a TSB(technical service bulletin) from FORD out for those and should be...
