    Sway bar bushings

    I upgraded to Energy Suspension poly five years ago and they're still perfect.

    I agree with Ben. The dash dummy gauge is exactly that. Borrow an IR heat gun and aim it at the t-stat housing once fully warm to put your mind at rest. Then seriously consider an aftermarket temp gauge or two. My two vegoil gauges (coolant and vegoil) are by far the most important gauges. My...

    factory paint question

    My paint codes are stamped on the driver's door jam sticker just under the bar code strip. I'd guess newer Super Duties have it there as well. Once you have the paint code, finding it at the stealership is easy.

Is your tank steel...

    Question Battery Indicator Lamp flickering?

    Yup in my OBS. There are three thin/tiny wires on top of the stock alternator, two together and a single. A heater core hose passes above it through a metal P loop clamp. When the clamp and hose gets mashed down on the thin wires it wreaks havoc with the alternator and the battery light will...

    Question Anyone ride Mountain Bikes?

    I find it humorous how Marin, Santa Cruz and Gary Fischer have found their names on mountain bikes. Marin and Santa Cruz counties are/were the hot spots of early mountain biking in the greater San Francisco area. Gary Fischer is the guy who "invented" mountain bikes. Never met him but he was...

    wvo filtering

    Oil is collected in cubies and let to settle for a while until a distinct clear level is seen above the sludge. Clear oil is poured through a 200 micron drum screen. When the 55 gallon drum is full it's heated to 120*F by a band heater then pumped through three sediment filters in series (20- 5...

    Question Anyone ride Mountain Bikes?

    I have the distinction and privilege to be one of the first hundred or so to ever ride a mountain bike. ;tu Flash back to 1975 when I'm living in Marin County. At that time there was no such a thing as a mountain bike. We scoured the junk yards for the early 50's Schwinn steel framed one speeds...

    Announcement TEAM USA swimmers

    Jason Lezak's last leg the other night gave me goose bumps. It was like watching the Kentucky Derby under water. What a sweet thing to shut up the trash talking Frenchies. ;tu

    Well I see 180*F right before the fuel pump. ;tu I have no opinion on your poly fuel line but I can very strongly suggest you get J30R9 fuel injection hose on either side of the Vegtherm Mega. That puppy really heat up and only the J30R9 can handle such heat over a long period of time. A foot or...

    Diesel prices are falling.

    When prices are dropping like a stone is not the time to stock up. IMO the best biocide on the market but six months is not really a long time for fuel storage and you won't have a moisture problem until November.

    Diesel prices are falling.

    $4.45 for #2 & B20 and dropping daily. What is important to realize is that we have been used to #2 from $1.49 to $2.49 for years. In the last two years prices have been rising daily. duh :D Then last month when oil peaked at ~$145 a barrel everybody freaked out. My point is that we are...

    Ben should remember and his is a CC. Mine is a reg cab and was converted 28 months ago but wisdom dictates to measure twice and cut once AND always buy more length than you think you'll need. Vegistroke :lmao

    The US cyclists wore face masks as they de-planed in Beijing and apologized to the Chinese for wearing them. :D Beijing has closed industries and prohibited vehicular traffic to try to clean up the air but to no benefit. :lmao The air is as smoggy as before. :eek: :rant If I were an Olympic...

    Ben has a good point about the FPHE placement. Initially mine was before the Pollak but I put it afterwards for two reasons. First, the Pollak is rated at 160*F before problems occur so putting it after the Pollak keeps the Pollak cooler. Second, running rear fuel through only the FPHE will...

    Plant drive kit install

    The order looks correct. I tee'd the heater core hoses just to the right of the degas bottle (coolant over flow reservoir). Hose from the head is hot out. Other is cold return. Hot out hose to Hot Fox. Cold return connects to out port of FPHE. Remember 1/2"ID hose is far superior to 3/8" and...

    HERE I've run my system in temps as low as 19*F with zero problems but I insulated every hose. Zero fahrenheit should be no problem if you do the same.

    dash gauge mount

    Yes, with thin screws but I had to drill the dash and remove the radio. Tranny sender screwed into a pre-existing port. Pre-existing port near water pump to tee w/sender. Return to degas bottle. (I have a coolant loop for my coolant filter where the tee/sender is installed). I don't have an...
