    Rear sway bar?

    Rear sway bar They were special ordered options on most of the early Powerstroke trucks, mine does not have it either but you can piece the whole thing together at the dealer for around $400. All the brackets and mounts are already on the rear differential and frame.

    Which tires for me?

    315's I have a set of Cooper Discoverer STT's on my stock suspension and factory wheels, they do rub when trying to go lock to lock but an aftermarket wheel solves that issue, I'm to attached to my factory Lariat wheels though. As for mileage and wear your looking at lower numbers for both, I...

    Excursion VIN to the local dealer will get you the Oasis report and as for the VT365 there are alot out there with a ton of miles and little repair history BUT if you don't take care of it it WILL break as with everything else. I would stay away from the first year of that engine unless it's...

    opinion on the 6.4

    New Truck I noticed you plow with your current truck and thought I would let you know something, starting in 2011 all trucks for the state of Mass have to be over 10,000lbs with a 9 footer no smaller, if your working the truck year round and it makes you money then a newer truck with the GVW...

    Positive battery cable

    Agreed Big Joe I like that Failure by Design theory of yours not only cause it's true but I see it everyday, only difference is that I call it "Engineering Obselesence"... Now have you guys seen the cables when they usually fail? inside out like corrosion and some guys never know untill...

    Positive battery cable

    Funny It's funny you posted this now cause I'm almost sure mine needs them now after 9 years. Your better off making your own set and getting rid of the big aluminum lugs that the factory uses. By replacing only one your going to put an increased load on the others so I would suggest changing...

    Question Diff covers for sterling?

    Diff cover I got mine from the Ford dealer I worked at for dirt cheap! Around $12.00 my cost and list is not much more either. They don't look as nice as Magtech but it's better than the factory one.

    Noob in the market.....have questions

    First Timer Dave and Joe are both correct and I only have one thing to add. If you have not owned a diesel powered pick-up before you should think about the cost to maintain and repair them correctly when and if they break, parts are not cheap. Plus ask yourself, do I need a diesel? Towing...

    Bad leak!

    HPOP Lines There is actually a service bulliten on the o-rings for the fittings in the pump to correct that leak you have. I have the paperwork somewhere but there is no reason a dealer can't find the parts, they have exploded views. Have you checked the dealer yet, even International too...

    Question 4x4 Switch Light Out

    4X4 Switch Well for starters the 4X4 stich will pop out using a flat bladed screw driver on each side and pull gently, then the light is actually embosed in a housing that will turn 1/4 turn and fall out. the bulb you cannot buy from Ford and they are difficult to pull out, radio shack will...

    dt466e trouble

    Dt466 So you have 80lbs of fuel pressure which is awesome for any horsepower DT466, that's okay. But the ICP pressure is what you need to see, that gauge should go higher considering the pressure does under a load. What you need to do to rule out any problems with the pump and regulator is have...

    dt466e trouble

    Dt466 There are two sensors on the high pressure rail under the valve cover, one for the engine brake and the other to monitor ICP pressure, the regulator is on the pump and you might have a bad one, 8000 PSI is too high, 600-790 at idle and up to 5500 at WOT. There are alot of places that...

    EGR and Bowl on National back order!!

    Egr I can feel your pain buddy, that engine has two egr coolers and I assume two egr valves also, I was just at the Ford dealer I worked at and my parts guy stated the same thing, Ford has been noticing a climb in egr failures on the 6.4L. I hope they resolve it for your sake and there's too...

    Kamatsu WA450

    Ouch Yea the operator got fired alright, he probably got a raise for crying out loud! As for the rest of the repairs now the cam is no good:eek:, checked the lift duration on the injector, exhaust, intake and they failed to meet spec, cam bushings have seen better days too. Well this is the...

    Carnage You wanted it here it is, more photo's. Sorry it took so long been busy trying not to murder my parts guy, thought I had a head for it laying around but it won't support the 290 horse that I'm overhauling. So off to the machine shop for a face lift. As for the reasons of this engine...

    filters

    Filter Videos That first video is right in many different ways, aftermarket parts in general not just filters can hurt a diesel, these engines are designed with precise tolerances everywhere vital to it's longevity. Good find Jetpilot1 but as for the guy from PowerstrokeHelp I don't see eye to...

    Truck won't start

    Theft light Your problem is probably in the theft light, the body control module can lock users out from driving the truck if it's been tampered with, other than that there is an inertia switch on the passenger side lower kick panel that cuts of fuel in the event of a roll over, check all the...

    Pictures I'll get some more photos of the liner, piston,head & valves on Tuesday. Haven't been to the garage in a couple of days since I tore it down, plus the parts are not in yet. This guy got quoted at the local Komatsu dealer for $20,000:dizzy to install a remanufactured engine, I'll...

    Glow plug replacement

    Glow plugs Go your local International dealer for all those parts, cheaper than Ford and they are the same quality too. As for the time limit for glow plugs, they'll last 5k - 250k just depends on the integrity of the circiut and the condition of the other components in the system. If you don't...
