    How To: Change Waterpump

    Deal. 30 minutes. 32 minutes. Any time in thirty-something minutes. Air tools. Water tools. Rotunda tools. Dealer-only tools. Tools the Egyptians used to built the pyramids in Giza. Any tool goes, just as long as the torque is correct on the fasteners. Speaking of dealers, the Ford...

    SuperDutyDiesel.com Giveaway contest!

    When I first read this, I thought you were a fellow enthusiast who just bought this website all by your lonesome, and you were taking a wild leap of faith with an out of the box idea by buying prizes out of your pocket, to bring this website back to life. Then yesterday I received this email...

    How To: Change Waterpump

    Talk. Talk. Talk. LETS SEE THE VIDEO. 30 minutes, from a driveable start to a driveable finish, changing the water pump. By "driveable start", that doesn't mean you have to change it while the engine is still hot. It just means that the truck has to be driveable. If the coolant is already...

    Fog light upgrade

    Weird... about 70% of my previous post disappeared. So I had to delete the rest of it, because the truncated version didn't make sense. Long story short: Two other options to add to your list of considerations include PIAA 410 (driving) and RIGID Industries square housing LED Dually and...

    Question What did you do to your truck today?

    Ah, ok. thanks for clarifying. The 1/2" plate was for the brackets, not the boards. The handrail is the "nerf bar". And you have a regular cab it seems. You're right, I was envisioning a crew cab with 7 foot long running boards made up of 1/2" steel plate, cantilevered some 20 inches...

    Having some electrical issues!

    I went through three sets of Motorcraft batteries, and went through miserable bouts of dead batteryitus with all three sets. Then, on my way to Damascus, I saw the light... Absorbed Glass Mat batteries. Once I installed two of those babies, my battery problems VANISHED. And that was 5 years...

    fuel bowl cover

    Ha, I was scrolling through my old posts on this site, and found where I posted about these engine cover differences back in April of last year: Quote: There are 4 different engine covers for the 7.3L, depending on year. 3 of them look similar, but are different. 1 of them (the last) is...

    Hahaha... that's funny! Don't tempt me. i'll bog down your server and you'll wish you never sent me that email. I'll bet I already have a long ones in my older user history. Nope. A 2500 GMC. But the kids (and adults) with the Tahoes know how to do certain things that I want to do, and...

    SuperDutyDiesel.com Giveaway contest!

    While I'm on the rampage :), I'd like to point out that I had to relog in 3 times during my 40 minute session this evening on this site. I was logged off automatically, presumably for inactivity, during each of the two posts that I made. The post above, and the post helping out another member...

    fuel bowl cover

    The original cover that came with your 1999 was discontinued in 2001, and was no longer even orderable in 2002. If you tried to order one in 2002, you would receive the revised version that came out in 2001. I am reporting this from experience. In otherwords, the engine cover (that's what...

    TahoeYukonForum.com Note there is no "s" at the end of "forum". A cybersquatter is holding on to the pluralized spelling. TYF is one of the worst of the black background forums to try and read, both visually and from an intrusive advertising point of view, with top bars, side bars that...

    Question What did you do to your truck today?

    How good of a deal was it? (how much $?) Did they also put in the Ford HD Torque Converter with the forged turbine hub and solid billet cover? (extra cost option, not included with the HD4R100) How many miles on your original 4R100?

    Question What did you do to your truck today?

    Nuh - uh. It didn't happen unless you post pics! 1/2" plate x 7" step width x 7 feet running board length (heavy!), cantilevered all the way outboard from being bolted to the frame (leverage!). This I gotta see. Especially when you talk about how nice your TiG welds are. Anyone with the...

    SuperDutyDiesel.com Giveaway contest!

    Hmmm. Well, it seems that I missed out on the entire "black and blue" era, as the last I remember, this site was white with a red logo. So the skin is probably not the reason I stopped visiting, but if the skin were still black with blue letters, that would virtually guarantee that I'd stop...

    air suspension

    Over the last 15 years since the Superduty was introduced in mid 1998 as a 1999 model year, I've seen several air suspension companies come and go out of business. The companies that spend more talking about the benefits of air suspension in general, rather than the specific implementation of...

    Batteries

    If money is tight, and the passenger battery is good, then I'd just replace the bad battery for now. A good battery will not pull down another good battery as much as a bad battery will pull down a good battery. Right now, your bad driver's battery is pulling down your good passenger battery...

    SuperDutyDiesel.com Giveaway contest!

    I got the email also, and it obviously worked, as I logged in for the first time in 6 months. Curiosity took hold, not to try and win a prize as much as to try and figure out what the "catch" is. Jaded by the days of the Reader's Digest Sweepstakes sweeping up millions from retirees...

    hpop oil leak

    Try the orings first. It is common for the orings to leak without there being a fault with the hpop itself.

    19.5, what should they cost?

    Your friend's 19.5" tires and wheels are not worth it for your dually, for many reasons. 1. The adapters to go from your 8x170mm bolt circle diameter to his 8x225mm bolt circle diameter are $350.00 a pair. So there's $700.00 spent on 4 adapters. 2. These adapters are dubious at best, in...

    WTB Engine Cover for 7.3 PSD

    Nope. There are 4 different engine covers for the 7.3L, depending on year. 3 of them look similar, but are different. 1 of them (the last) is radically different. 2 of them were for the 94-97 7.3L, 2 of them were for 99-03 7.3L. The earlier 2 will not fit a 2000 model year without...

    Which gauges to pick

    Kind of an old thread, but your question wasn't answered yet (at least here, anyways) so I thought I would take a shot: The OEM transmission temp guage is damped. It's needle movement, by design, is not as reactive as a "real" guage. It is damped to keep owners from panicking at sudden...
