So this happened today..... Thank God it didn't come apart :homer:
Rubber and bearing looked like shit, so I pressed it off and went to oder a new one, but Jesus christ there is like 80 different ones for this body style :homer:
I definitely have the 1.575 version, but rock auto still lists...
Any ideas why most of my braking is on the front, to the point it gets them smoking hot?
Rear pads were replaced last year, and I adjusted it this spring which slightly helped.
They engage when tested with ass in the air. And park brake holds the truck fine.
Pedal travels normal, and effort is...
No interest here, donated to Rubicon Trail Foundation
There are the 1480 u-joint axles, I upgraded to 1550.
Would make great spares.
Complete inner and outer, long and short side.
No play in U-Joints.
Some surface rust, but the price is right.
Located in Scotts Valley (near Santa Cruz)...
I picked up a 99 Ford f350, 7.3 with a 6 speed manual for a tow rig. 285/78/16 tires. IDK what gearing. I picked it up to tow a 39 foot 5th wheel. I havent towed it yet. Weighs 13K pounds. I am a newb when it comes to towing. Question is will it handle the 39 foot trailer? Truck is bone stock.
I've made enough progress to move this into a build thread and I also have some questions/need some sanity-checks at this point so here it is.
I'm starting with a 78 F150 4x4 that I've put a new motor in (400), rebuilt transmission (C6), 2" lift with 33's and overall made into a solid driver...
I need to find a couple new trucks at work. Ideally I want a srw F350. Pickings were already slim and now there’s a strike. Nobody knows when or if an ordered truck will arrive. So, sitting here at ten o’clock on a Saturday night it suddenly seemed reasonable to find a drw and drop two tires. I...
Anyone have any stellar reviews with aftermarket ones? Ford wants over $900 for the drivers and both passenger side ones and that seems a bit crazy for non greasable stock parts. I’ve looked at the apex kit and the kryptonite kit and like that they are greaseable and beefy but have no...
2001 F350 4x4 Dually
147K miles
4x4 with 4.30 gears
pretty new Toyo M55 tires
ball joints, tire rod, drag link shocks and front brakes/rotors less than 1000 miles ago
overall pretty nice for it age
small rip on driver set, have new seat covers not installed yet
has a new ford passenger dual...
Not my truck. Friend snagged it at an auction. Says he replaced pump and hb. I don't shit about hb but thought I'd see what I could dig up. What say ibb?
Not sure if this should be here or in newb, wanting to take pictures so that I can keep track of various things. Feel free to move it if need be or flame the shit out of this thread and i'll move it myself :flipoff2:
This just might be the worst truck ever and prices are so high, I've...
Anyone have any feed back on the 2017 aluminum trucks?
Thinking about upgrading my work truck. Currently 2014 F250 SCSB lariat 6.7 185K miles. Nothing really wrong with it, but it rides like crap and is ready to need a bunch of other work. Got some dings from hail and pushing snow. Some rust...
I have a Con Truck lumber rack I saved from my 87 F250 standard cab that I now want to put on my 2002 F350 Crew Cab. I wasn’t aware that it wasn’t going to fit until I put it up there. It’s about 3” short of sitting on the bed rail in the front and the crossbar is sitting on the cab.
A...
2012 F-350, started out with a bed but that got pulled off and replaced with a dog box. All the lights work on the truck, but we’re getting zero on the trailer connector with the exception of the turn signals. (maybe brake power too, haven’t checked that one. Running lights, backup and...
Looking for advice on things to troubleshoot. Truck is currently on the side of highway 17 in CO.
While driving, truck died and and would not restart. Showed codes P0201 through P0210. While trouble shooting found the fuel pump fuse had blown. Replaced and tried to start and the fuse blew...
OK i found a local 96 F350 7.3L diesel that the owner says it's been sitting for a little over a year and was towed because it died and wouldn't restart. It's a good deal because of this so I am wanting to check it out. Also I am wondering what I should look into to find the issue when trying...
OK so i'm going to look at a good deal 1989 F350 with a 7.3L with a C6 trans with 160K Miles. The front axle is also a monobeam style 2WD could I swap out the trans to a E40D or newer 4R100 with 4x4 and swap in a 8 lug solid front axle to convert to 4x4 and get a US Shift controller to handle...
Figured i would post up something for people to look at to waste time. Sold my 19 F250 since prices were crazy and picked up an 05 F350. The story i was told was: It was brought in for repairs, the person never paid so the repair shop put a lean on it and got it. Then the owner/operator cut a...
So, I've got a drivetrain out of a 94 F--350 in my junk...What size is the u-joint? Getting ready to swap in a 10.50 from an 08, and I want to get the correct flange yoke so I don't have to change driveshafts.
Ordering from the Irate4x4parts house is a screaming price, btw. I highly recommend...
so I have a car right now.. which I have never taken down the 8-9 miles of gravel road leading up to the family ranch
I spend like 1/3 of my time at the ranch.. but at some point I'm going to move to the ranch full-time..
I have discussed my thoughts on maybe a gladiator or bronco.. however I...
