    New and need info. Which one to get 7.3L or 6.0L???

    6.0 Upgrades Cost??? So I've read about guys adding this EGR delete and changing the head bolts to correct some of the 6.0's chronic problems. What would each of these procedures roughly cost individually to do with parts (both doing it yourself - and at a shop)? Are these things that can...

    Question Does the '05 and newer suspension ride much softer???

    I'm new to the forum, and as I stated in an earlier post, I'm thinking of trading my 2001 v10 Superduty for a diesel. My '01 does have a small lift on it and some 35's, but it rides like a tank. I was wondering if the new coil over suspensions introduced in '05 ride much softer compared to the...

    Forgive my lack of knowledge with the diesels, but what is the HPOP and CPS?

    What are some of the Achilles heels of the 7.3? Again, thanks for the input so far. It definitely helps.

    Is one more maintenance friendly than the other? Since I've never owned a diesel, I don't really know what regular maintenance is required on them (other than oil change). I like to do as much of my own maintenance as possible on my own vehicles (sorry, just don't trust most of the shops). So...

    New and need info. Which one to get 7.3L or 6.0L???

    Thanks for the info. I'm only looking for crew cab 4x4's. My current superduty is an '01 F350 crew cab 4x4 v10. It is a good running truck, but crappy on gas as to be expected. I don't tow anything now, but hope to in the near future. I've been told by buddies who have switched to diesels...

    NEW AND NEED INFO. WHICH ONE TO GET - 7.3L or 6.0L??? I'm new to the forum and could use a little help. First off, I currently have an '01 Superduty w/ the V10. I'm looking to trade it in for a used diesel. Due to $$$ I will be looking for an older one (probably '99 - '05). I really know...

    '01 Lifted F-350 Having Problems at Higher Speeds

    Lift issues I've been doing a little more research online and I came across some information where people were having a lot of the same issues as I'm having. So I've already contacted a shop, and I'm going to have them check out all of my driveline angles, and for any other possible lift...

    '01 Lifted F-350 Having Problems at Higher Speeds

    dreveshaft The few people that I talked to said that converting from a 2 piece driveshaft to a 1 piece was fine up to a certain point. They said they didn't recommend it after a certain number of inches (which I can't remember the amount at this time). But I remember I was going to be pretty...

    '01 Lifted F-350 Having Problems at Higher Speeds

    lift issue I would tend to agree with you, however, everything appears to have started after the lift. I will have to check and make sure everything is tight. Maybe it is a bad wheel or tire? I remember one of the guys who supposedly balanced the driveshaft said that it was a little out...

    '01 Lifted F-350 Having Problems at Higher Speeds

    U-joints As far as I know they are. Unfortunately, I'm away from home on business and will not be able to check it right away.

    '01 Lifted F-350 Having Problems at Higher Speeds

    v-10 shudder If you are talking about the two piece shafts in comparison to one another, they are mostly straight. They were pretty much straight from the start, but still had problems. I took it to the lift shop and they shimmed it so much that they had to fabricate a new angled bracket to...

    '01 Lifted F-350 Having Problems at Higher Speeds

    v-10 shudder OK, I talked to my brother-in-law (who was the original owner of the truck and had the lift installed). He said that the truck didn't start having the problem until after the lift was installed. Initially, it had problems at about 55 mph. He said he took it to the shop, they...

    '01 Lifted F-350 Having Problems at Higher Speeds

    F350 problem at higher speeds I will try and check these things out. Thanks for the feedback. Please keep them coming. I need as much help as possible. I'm pretty mechanically inclined and try to do most of my own repairs to save money. However, I'm running out of ideas short of throwing...

    '01 Lifted F-350 Having Problems at Higher Speeds

    Hi, I'm new to this forum. I was searching for answers to my truck's problem and I ran across this. I have the v-10 and not the diesel, but I figured you could still help me in this situation. I'm sorry because this is going to be long and detailed, but I need help. I have an '01 F-350...
