So the starter has been going really slow the last couple of days, truck barely starts. I took the truck in to have the batteries tested, they test at 870 cold cranking amps and are rated at 850. The shop says they tested the starter and it is good too. I will clean all of the connections on the...

I know this is happening in the SD world, and it increases payload for them. Has anyone done it in an OBS, or is there a reason we can't? PMF makes a kit for the SD '08 Spring Hanger Conversion for '99-07

What options do we have for Steering wheels in our trucks? I can't seem to find a stock one in good condition.

So I have a ZF5 with a US Gears overdrive behind it, Southbend clutch, etc... When I back into my driveway (short incline, not that steep) if I am not PERFECT with the clutch it feels like the drivetrain just loads up with torque until I push the clutch in to keep from hitting the garage and...

I need to get a new rear bumper, has been mucked up since I got the truck. I am interested to see what you guys are running for bumpers and auxilary back up lights. Thanks

So the truck is going to need a trans rebuild or replacement soon. I currently have a ZF5 and an Overdrive. That means the truck ultimately has 2 different gear ratios 4.10 (the stock axles) and 3.23 the Overdrive gearing. I am wondering what you guys think about eliminating the overdrive and...

I have the stock IDM out of my 1997 F350, I upgraded to a Superduty. $100

I could have sworn that I read somewhere about guys liking a 750-800RPM idle with a ZF5 in our trucks. I can't find anything about it again to reread, and don't remember where I saw it.. Anybody care to chime in?

I have read everything I can find, I would like to hear from people who ARE or HAVE RUN this housing on an OBS. I realize it won't work, will cause too much back pressure, too much heat, I will lose ALL of my top end, etc... But I am curious to hear from those who have run them in the real world...

I want to see trucks that are sitting stock height, with stock tires, how they were born..

ANyone have much experience with these? I have one in my truck, but it works very intermittently and I am not sure where to start looking. I may want to pull it out and put a fresh motor in it if I can find an industrial motor to fit it.

So my 1997 F350 Crew Cab with a Zf5 and US gears Overdrive, seems to have what I would call loose, noisy drivetrain. The truck is making pretty much stock power, nothing major done to it. Has a new (less than 10k) Single mass South bend clutch. There are 2 things that don't seem normal to me...

I am trying to determine what I want and where/how I want to mount them.

I am having a vibration (might call it turbulence) at 2100Rpm and up... I feel it in the floor and the shifter (ZF-5). Truck has 250k on it, I am thinking I am going to replace motor mounts and tranny mounts either way. Anything else anyone can think of? It does have a down pipe and still...

OK, so I am getting my shopping list together to change all of the fluids on my '97 5spd this weekend... Tranny, T-case, diffs. I am curious what everyone uses, and if there are tricks or problems I should watch out for while performing the service. I have heard to fill the tranny from the...

The title says it all, I have borrowed a good one and know it is my stumbling issue.

Anyone have any experience with these guys? http://www.ecudiesel.com/Ford-Idm.php I want a superduty one if I am going to spend the $$$ thanks

I have a 1997 F350 Crew ZF5 and US Gears OD, within the last 2 weeks the truck has gotten a new carrier bearing, all 3 ujoints on the rear driveshaft, and a new Southbend clutch, flywheel, pressure plate, throwout. Here is my question, when driving the truck nice and easy everything seems fine...

Can I determine from the access panel what flywheel/clutch is in my truck? More specific the difference between dual mass and single?
