Ok, background. Bought a 2006, F-250 crew cab, short bed, Lariat FX4 with a 6.0. 118,000 miles, ran it for a couple thousand, ABS light comes on randomly. Check the code, Rear Wheel speed sensor. Ok, no biggie....I will put it on my list. Doing front brakes, I noticed the drivers side front...
So, I am gonna do a thing. I bought a 79 F-250, and am gonna build it. I am also buying a 1999 F-250, and am gonna strip it. Anyone see where I am going with this???I wanna stuff a 7.3 Powerstroke in my 79. I have looked high, low, and everywhere in between, and find alot of people that...
So....I am back. Live in Portland, Michigan now. Got a 2005 ranger, but I am looking for a real truck. Been on Craigslist and Facebook looking for a 78-79 SC 4x4 auto....and it's looking like I gotta go out of state to get one under $10k...yikes. Anywho.....this page aint exactly lively from...
Back story....I bought this truck from my step-dad. He tinkers, bought it as a project. Rebuilt the front axle (U joints, bearings, ball joints...etc etc), but never touched the tcase. Lock in the hubs, throw it in 4hi, and she goes where you point it. This thing blows me away with all the...
Ok...followed the instructions on the video. Got a 111 and a 332. 111 is system ok, 332 is EGR did not open during test. Could my egr be bad? Is that why my truck runs funky?
Hey guys....got an issue I hope you can help with. I have a 95 F-150 4x4 5.8L auto. Cold startup is fine but warm starts usually have a problem. Rolls over fine, fires right up, then rpms drop to about 400-500. So low that the voltage gauge reads low, lights dim...everything. Touch the go...
You have WAY more patience than me.....I built 1 model....in my dads workshop, put hours and hours into this thing.....as I was painting the body, he was "sweeping up" with the air hose....I dont think I need to finish that story. The whole kit-n-kaboodle went in the trash, never messed with...
Got the job! I doubt the truck will still be around, but I can wish. I have already told the wife that a portion of my check will go to my truck every week...She said as long as the bills get paid, she dont give a crap what I do with the rest....YAY!!!
All I need is the bed, engine, and winch. I would sell/scrap the rest to cover the investment. Not having money sucks. I did however get an interview tomorrow, so hopefully the not having money thing will end soon....
that one has been for sale for over a year....you might be able to get it cheaper, plus you can sell all the spare parts, and make some money back.....
only thing i can think of is that the ex-cab would put more weight over the front axle, not to mention the extra weight of the extra passengers.....leafs handle weight better than coils.....maybe?
