Message: [QUOTE="JDow, post: 1496799, member: 29711"] Hi guys, new to the forum. Skip to next post for this build. For those that want the back story : I've had several 7.3's over the last 15 years, worked on hundreds of them (ase master tech, L1, diesel, etc) and built some pretty stout trucks. My maroon zf6 was in the first diesel power challenge in 06. Got over all that about 8 years ago and drove nothing but stock trucks for work and hauling my boat. A few years ago my best friend had a ccdrw lariat that I fell in love with and had to have. Well, my friend got real sick and before he passed pretty much gave me the truck. Fast forward almost one year, coupling breaks off my boat trailer, and as I pulled down my driveway the boat tried to pass the truck but missed and wiped out the bed and cab! I was more destroyed than the truck. I found a super clean 99 xlt white ccdrw in Chicago and drove it home. The whole time I have the lariat sitting in the driveway and can't figure out what I want to do with it. At 215k the "new truck" starts smoking and skipping bad. Here comes the build. [/QUOTE]
