    99 7.3

    Welcome. There's lots to learn around here, although you have to sift through all of the dust in the 7.3 section... but someone's always around to point you in the right direction!

    Trailer charge line draining trailer battery while engine off

    I've towed 5th wheels and bumper pulls for years and never leave em plugged in once the truck is parked. At least not for more than a few hours, but it has always been my experience it will kill your battery if left over the weekend etc...

    6.7 starter in a 7.3

    Would you think it would have a shorter life span in a 7.3 as opposed to a 6.7? Curious as to why if that's what you are asking. 6.7's have been out since 2011 so I'd say there is a fair amount of data floating about as to their starter life. Application should really be irrelevant unless the...

    GT28 Turbo from sponsors?

    Looking at a new turbo for my Mazda CX7 and was wondering what if any turbos some of our sponsors might carry? Here is a link to a non sponsor site that has what I'm looking for, but I'd just as soon support someone here if possible. Shoot me a pm for prices for either a stock replacement or a...

    Need advice asap

    Hate to be that guy and ask, but did you wiggle the steering wheel either way while turning the key? The wheel lock hasn't engaged? Dunno, I'm not a newer truck guy but I've busted more than 1 ignition lock cylinder that way. I know I know, I'm a dumbass :doh:

    Just another 7.3 under the knife.

    You can't go wrong with an Adrenaline. I have over 120k on mine since purchase, towing a 10k 5th wheel for the most part. It hasn't missed a beat. I posted my Adrenaline story on here more than a few years ago, but it might not appear, so here's my experience... Talked to Bob over the phone...

    7.3 brake upgrades

    Ford brakes are crap. I've fought off and on for the past 10 years, calipers after calipers, rotors, brake lines, etc.. doesn't seem to matter what brand, or who installs em. My calipers usually start seizing about 6 months after install. There's not a warranty available unless you want to spend...

    Towing EGT's

    It's already been said, but I'll reiterate. Lose the D66. It is not a good turbo to be towing with. I'm in your ballpark, my 5th wheel loads out over 14k. There's no way I'd dream of taking the trailer on any sort of trip with my d66. I yanked it off, went back to stock, and it was an...

    Easiest way to get ahold of pis?

    I know nothing about him personally, but he made some pretty good claims from his injectors vs everyone else. I think that rubbed quite a few people the wrong way. Until now however, I've not heard anyone really complain about his injectors. Too bad really, mine are about ready to come out and...

    6.7 starter in a 7.3

    I have not tried it myself. I did pay the core fee and kept my old starter. Waiting on a 6.7 starter from the local wrecker and then I'm going to try the swap. Might be a couple of months, as I work in camp.

    6.7 starter in a 7.3

    Had my starter die this weekend and ran across this on youtube. I remember a bunch of people talking about it, but someone did it and made a video. Actually compares all of the powerstroke starters. Looks like any year will bolt up to a 7.3? Guy did a good job. Hope no one minds me sharing...
