    ball joint replacement problem!

    I did mine this summer. It wasn't a cake walk, but it wasn't bad enough to where I would want to pay someone to do it either...

    New Pics Of My Truck

    That's nucking futs! I have to sat that the triangulated 4 link with coil overs has to be the cat's meow, though. I'd love to have that in a 4" lift configuration.

    This Is Too Sweet (EZ-Down)

    I love mine, and I don't worry about my daughter opening the tailgate on her head. On a side note, I accidentally dropped my buddy's tailgate out of habit. It came down hard :(

    I hope they are as competitive on price with diesel as they are unleaded.

    Good catch, thanks. Stupid hangover got me on that one :cowboy:

    turbo surge

    Sorry for the long delay in my response, I spent yesterday having a blast at the Ford/Buick shootout. The 203 t-stat has been said to be better. Maybe I'm sucker for believing it, but diesels like to be warm. The ambient air can stand to be cool, but the motor operating temp was said to be...

    turbo surge

    I don't know, I didn't have a boost gauge at the time. I do know that I can spool my stock turbo up into the 30psi territory with no problems other than knowing that I'm killing my turbo slowly. We have done several without removing the turbo.

    That's the plan ;)

    turbo surge

    I would agree even without having one. I will most likely get a new turbo, so I'll not be going that route at this time, but I know the install is pretty straightforward having R/R'ed the turbo housing to get the WW in. No need to pull the turbo.

    turbo surge

    John is right, I have a 4" turbo back. It's in my sig above.

    gauges

    I suggest getting electrics for ease of install despite their higher price. Pyro is a must, tranny is good, boost is for fun/info.

    turbo surge

    I was running the edge uploader 60/80/110 IIRC. I was fine in 80 and I think the 110 as well. Tony doesn't rate his tunes with power levels, but I know I surge on the hottest one.

    turbo surge

    WW fixed mine till I got hotter tunes. Do the ATS and be done.

    Gremlins in my F350

    My CC light works like Big Joe's, but others appear to not have cruise lights at all, so I don't know. I guess there are differences throughout the years.

    Gremlins in my F350

    My guesses: 1- Door lock actuator going south 2- Likely the bulb for that light is out since the cruise actually works 3- When you replace the door lock actuator, take a look at the connections to see if they may have come loose. You may want to have another speaker on hand to test a...

    Leaking Fuel line

    I don't know how it could seal without them. could be the bio ate them up and what little was left fell into the abyss upon removal. it would be nice if they were viton, but they are standard soft rubber. mine was pretty degraded and I don't run bio.

    Leaking Fuel line

    Ford sells a fuel bowl seal kit ( i bought one this morning (don't ask, long story)) that has the rubber sleeves that seal the single flare/compression nut. It has 4 feed line sleeves, from the tank feed sleeve and a return sleeve. Once the leak on the line is fixed, which I do suggest a new...
