    Question Why is it...

    I was not aware of the lack of KR availability in the F450. I knew it's not available in the 550. No wonder I couldn't find any. I are a t00l.... Thank you. I guess I'll settle for a Lariat. I don't want an XLT, as I mentioned before, rewiring the truck to bring all the lariat goodies into...

    Question Why is it...

    I didn't realize swapping transmissions between a Torqshift an a ZF would be more expensive than swapping out to a say, Lariat interior, and running all the necessary extra wiring harnesses and stuff like converting from the rotary knob climate control to the EATC which IIRC has a totally...

    Question Why is it...

    The reason I'm looking for a manual in a loaded 450 or 550 is because as soon as I get one, it will trek to Kalispel Montana and have a 5.9 Cummins installed under the hood... preferably AFTER the powerstroke is yanked out. ;) I have nothing against the Powerstroke, my current 03 has done me...

    Question Why is it...

    That 06-07 F-450 and F-550 Loaded (KR or Lariat) crew cabs are so hard to find in a manual transmission configuration? I've scoured the net (e-bay, autotrader, etc), and I can't find any 6 speed trucks. Are Crew cab Lariat (or KR) 4x4 F-450 and F-550 trucks with 6 speed trannies so...

    Auto sound leveling radio

    Ofcourse they do. Hell, Clarion had this option in their AutoPC decks way back in 2001. There are other manufacturers out there that have this option, though frankly I never cared much for it to remember which ones they were.

    6.0 a'going.

    Hi, Anyone here do a swap from a 6.0 to a Cummins? Which would be the easier way to go when pulling the motor? Up, or removing the grille, bumber, and radiator/cooler supports? I'm thinking the latter would make it easier for the swap. My machinist has a fresh rebuild (New rods...

    ICP Sensor

    Yeah, I knew about the 04's and the ICP location on those... hence the cursing I was directing towards that particular engineer when I was doing the swap.

    Fast Idle Switch

    The high idle switch is great. I idle mine on fast idle about 14 hours straight during the winter - yes, I can afford the fuel. I agree with what was said above, about starting the truck and kicking it to high idle to warm it up/cool it off inside, but you might want to start it up, and let...

    ICP Sensor

    If I EVER meet the International engineer who decided it would be a good idea to put the ICP sensor under the turbo on the 03 models, I will kick him square in the cajones. /rant.

    Which Synthetic oil??

    Eh. I like my 10K motor. I'll change the oil in it as I have been. Seems to work out for me. And surprisingly Ken, I am familiar with extended oil change byspass systems.

    911!!! My Eyeglasses are broken down, HELP

    Uhhh.. I just went through it. They do each eye independently. In my case, Right eye first, then after he was done with that, he moved on to the left eye. :D they may do them both at EXACTLY the same time, but I don't see why they would do that. ps. And the suction cup thinghy? They...

    Fuel economy upgrades

    I'm running an AFE filter setup. Lots of dirt road driving, lots of dust. Blackstone seems to be happy with the filtration results. Will you get better fuel economy? Well... Don't mean to sound like (as a friend of mine once put it) a "snob", but I don't pay that much attention to fuel...

    911!!! My Eyeglasses are broken down, HELP

    Obviously, reading the entire thread pwns me. :D Yes, you will like seeing well again. I wouldn't worry about doing each eye over a span of time. Have there been problems? Sure. Are they now as likely as in the past? No. Besides, they DO each eye independently, so there you go...

    PSD vs. shed

    Heresy! If you back the truck into the shed just right, the truck will win. :D

    Fuel economy upgrades

    In that case, I think the general consensus is to leave it stock if you want some semblance of reliability. These 6.0's don't seem to like tuners (chips, frito lays, whatever) all that much.

    Fuel economy upgrades

    What he said. And you can hear that turbo whine as it spools up. Get's a lot of fellow diesel owners looking around wondering "WTF?". Granted, I also "lost" the muffler somewhere between the time I took the truck into the exhaust shop and the time I left there... I'm still looking for it. I...

    Vehicle Theft!!!!!!!

    Hmmm. Sorry to hear about all the problems you guys are having with being broken into and all. I leave mine on fast idle when I park it for no more than an hour (grocery store, restaurant, etc). to keep it cool in the summer time and warm in the winter. so far, no problems.

    Which Synthetic oil??

    uhhh. ok? It reminds me of the Cummins motor the local Dealer brought in to my machinist one day. 100 some odd thousand miles on it, oil had never been changed on it. EVER. I wish I would have taken some pictures of the sludge in that motor. I'm still a little confused though...

    Double din nav/dvd unit into din and a half space?

    If the 03 is the same as the 02, then a double DIN will fit with a little filing down of the two screws that are above the radio, set into the dash. I know it works, because I'm running an AVIC D2 in my 03MY.
