Time for tranny service.
Thanks for the info Track! This whole mercon thing has confused me from what ive read. Some say no dont use mercon 5 then others say its ok. Thanks for clarifying it for me. Mobil is what I probably would've used if I had to pick another brand. $9 a qt isnt bad at all.- Stroked68

Time for tranny service.
Thanks Doug for the insight on this. I agree with ya, stick to what is in the truck. Its got over 277k on it now and I personally only had to replace one sensor on the engine. Other than that been an awesome truck. Didnt know if there was some "miracle" oil out there that helps alot. I priced...- Stroked68

Time for tranny service.
Thats true about the oil pan. Some hold like 5 more qts I think? Does someone make one that is the same size but is aluminum and ribbed? I installed the rear end cover from the 08 and up superduties cause its better for cooling. I agree with using the original ford stuff. Nothin wrong with it...- Stroked68

MBRP Exhaust
Spend the money now. I'd hate to buy two exhaust systems. I have their turbo back smokers kit and got the most expensive since Im in the rust belt. Aluminized wouldnt last a yr here. I wouldnt put a muffler on it. Its not loud without a muffler. Cuttin the muffler off the stock system will def...- Stroked68

Ordered New Chip!
Well I finally bought a chip. I went with Bill at PHP. Got the FU chip that comes with the burner so I can burn all the tunes I want for free anytime. Dont know when it will be here, hopefully before memorial weekend but we'll see. When I took the PCM out to get the 4digit code off it, it...- Stroked68

Feeling down on power.
Also try the EBPV pipe and sensor. Mine was rusted in two and caused crappy fuel mileage. You will help your truck out if you put a turbo back 4" exhaust and the DIY intake on it.- Stroked68

NAV Display
They had an earth day sale here in ks and thats when I snagged it. I guess waiting along time paid off for me haha. From what all I read pioneer is the most popular units. Kenwood was a close second. Of course you get the diehard pioneer and kenwood people fighting but I think the pioneer is...- Stroked68

NAV Display
I just bought on sale a pioneer one. I cant remember the exact model number but I think its a av930bt or somethin along those lines. I havnt gotten to really play with it but I really like it so far. Only thing I would suggest is putting an on/off switch for the main power instead of using your...- Stroked68

in the market for a power stroke, which one?
If you just want to tow and have a reliable motor and chug along the good ole 7.3 is the way to go. 6.0 are hot rods stock and modded. If its got head studs and new headgaskets its bullet proof with the egr delete. Heard good things on the 6.4 and 6.7s. They are all good motors, maintenance is key!- Stroked68

PS 7.3L Exhaust
4" is plenty. 5" wont hurt anything but save your money for another mod for yer truck. I love my MBRP full exhaust. I have the 4" turbo back smokers kit that came with stacks. I love it, nice sound and really helped my truck. If yer state allows it, cut that muffler off and either leave it off...- Stroked68

Well i assumed they would read them since he used it at the big trannsmission shop he worked at. I need to buy the icp sensor anyways since its leaking oil so we will see what happens with that first. I left the sensor unplugged today and idled great. Down on power though but still hauled a load...- Stroked68

Now my truck will die as soon as the light goes out and will restart right back up but will idle like crap (lopeing). We left the scanner hooked up while the truck died and still nothin.

Just thought that case IH was the same company. Oh well, I will have to search for an international dealer round here I guess. Probably KC is my closest option.- Stroked68
