    tire opinions for an 07 dually

    they come in like 10 sizes, and are 2 plys. I can get 3 ply in extremes, but i don't want an off road tire. I'm looking for a commercial tire, or an all terrain to stand up to the abuse. Plus, I'm no way spending that much per tire. I could buy 2 sets of BFs for that and get more mileage.

    tire opinions for an 07 dually

    Sorry I haven't posted in SO long. Been real busy with my company. Anyways, I have 21000 miles on my 07 dually 4x4 and the tires aren't looking all that great. I swapped out the rugged trails on day one and replaced them with bfg KOs. They have held up well, but now the ride kinda sucks and...

    Question on drilling hardened steel?????

    Solid carbide drill is a must, good oil (tapping oil, not wd40), and low speed with steady pressure. Nothing else will work good. My dad has been a tool and die maker his whole life and we own a job shop, so what i say is the truth. Question though, since when has warn made their bumbers out...

    New Fuel

    Shouldn't hurt anything, but time will tell. The change simply might cause a few hickups on the older trucks. You probably are already running it though as we have had it since july. If you smell the fuel and it smells like puke, its ulsd.

    GM 150 units, Ford 50,000 units???????

    Here's what most people don't get. Just because GM has that big clunky truck that looks like a 650, its not. They're max gvw on a 4500 is only 17000 pounds. Closer to a 450 and a 550. Most electric companys now use the 2 interchangably. A 550 is just a smaller vehicle to get into spaces...

    General Motors

    I can't remember if it was said on here or on TDS.......... How people with Fords and Dodges put international and cummins decals on their trucks, but no one puts isuzu on their truck. Well, theres always a first, chevy put allison on their truck along with duramax. Losers. I would like the...

    Turbo Housing

    will give you faster spoolups and the same boost numbers, just sooner. I had one and didnt really like it. seemed that the truck ran out of oomph sooner while towing a load.

    Ford media release 2008 SD

    So my question is this. In the interior pics, they have manual ac and heat, on a king ranch. No more electronic ac i guess?? What do all the buttons on the steering wheel do then?

    wife just called and spent more $$$$ on the boss

    get a little will. shortest wilson they make an its magnetic. i cut a u groove in my third brake light and routed it up to it above the headliner. Works perfect and it doesn't fall off. it'll wip and hit the roof before it moves.

    wife just called and spent more $$$$ on the boss

    you probably could, but then you would have to have your radio set to the aux input all the time to hear the cb. CBs have a lot of static which isn't really great for speakers. Use the cb for the cb and the radio for music. Dan

    Should i buy the 1st year 6.4?

    Reread your post and you'll probably find the answer! If this motor was sitting on the shelf ready to roll, then I'd say go for it. But they still don't have the bugs worked out, so unless you want to do their work, don't buy one. As for the Dodge though...........;)

    hub covers

    I have one I pulled off my 350 dually a while back. I just sold the truck and was going to toss it. If you want it, let me know and I'll ship it to you. It won't look outta play since it's used! Dan

    power window problem, help!

    So I ripped the door apart today at lunch because it was driving me nuts. I could hear the relay clicking when i hit the button, but the lights weren't dimming because of the motor strain, which was wierd. After taking the switch apart, i realized it's a bad one touch button. There is a...

    power window problem, help!

    So my driver's side window stopped going down yesterday. Every once in a while it does work and goes down fine. No binding or dragging, so it's not a regulator problem. It also goes up fine too. When I bought my truck, the pass window did the same thing and I replaced a relay under the hood...

    Autoenginuity

    True, but all "powerstrokes" are obd-II. The same computer was used on the 94.5 powerstrokes on up. Ford kinda had the jump on the technology stuff. Rather Navistar did, Ford can't build computers.

    Oil Filters

    I use a Fleetguard LF691 that I get from wholesalemidwest.com. It's cheaper then buying from pep boys and it's TWICE the size. Brings your refill of oil right to 4 gallons. super simple oil changes. It also does do a better job filtering. I've gone as far as 7500 miles on a oil change in my...

    2007 trucks question.

    anything that will go on an 05 or 06 will go onto your truck. Nothing has been changed from those years. I don't think people have updated because the 07's were really supposed to be 6.4s

    Have you driven your Ford behind a jetliner lately?

    they did that on myth busters and it didn't work. It was a smaller engine, one off a 737 I believe and it didnt do jack. :dunno

    larger rear fuel tank

    the bronco tanks are super cheap, like a 100 bucks. Get the sender too so the gauge reads correctly. Check ebay.

    Leaf Springs

    the x code springs were the same regardless of gas or diesel. Just a note. I put the x's in my 350 to level out a bit and hold the plow better..... they sagged too! Don't know what the best solution is, but they ride better the the v codes. Dan

    Rear Sway Bar Questions

    I would go with the stock ford. I went with a hellwig once before and it was cheesy. The mounting hardware is like a bunch of scrap metal. Go with the ford. It works and you'll know it fits! Dan

    Bed Liners

    So I'm getting my new truck soon, and was pondering this very same thing. Here's what i'm concerned with. Chipping from shovels and hard items being tossed in. And pallets being put in with a forklift. I guess the shovel thing was answered. I'm a contractor, so tools go in and out, same...
