In regard to the comments below, we just change from a 1989 460 to a 1999
Powerstroke. There is a comparison and the diesel moves the same trailer
more easily. The trailer is a 14,000 lb 5th wheel and the total weight is
around 20,500. The 460 simply had less pulling ability.

We also moved from the SRW to a DRW. As someone in this group advised me
earlier, we would not go back to a SRW. The stability and extra weight of
the truck (7200 versus 5700) also adds to stability etc.

Jim,sounds like the blowby may be excessive and in greater quantity than
the crankcase ventilation system can handle.Generally,this means rings
are about shot(sorry) and the engine needs rebuilding.Do like the
previous list member suggested and perform a compression test on it and
compare what you have to what you should have.How many miles do you have
on it? Do you have oil leaks elsewhere on the engine?Excessive crankcase
pressure can cause them,too.

Casey, If you want to contact me at the address above regarding your

off-road abot 10% of the time,and the decreased articulation is no

No offense meant to anyone, but Ford has some pretty qualified engineers on
the payroll. It cost Ford a lot of money to install (anti)sway bars on your
trucks. Trust me, they would not have done it if they didn't think the truck
should have them. They would much rather have put the money into the profit
column. Now, if you really think you know more about what is best for your
truck, go ahead. This is America and you are entitled to do stuff like that.

Ryan,
To be totally honest, I never had the opportunity to drive
one of the new Powerstrokes, but if its in a Ford its got
to be allright.I guess I've passed so many Dodge/Cummins{fact}
in the mountains over here that I've become jaded.It is just tuff
for me to justify the cost and extra maintenance that goes
with them,but then again I never owned one.

4 Wheeler Magazine has always recomended that you take the anti-sway
bars off of Jeep Wranglers. This is because they perform better off
road this way. But they also recomend putting it back on when you go
back on road.
So everyone is right. :)

Sounds like one sweet machine you plan to get. I've heard (not on the
list) conflicting mpg reports on the 460 and PSD and have concluded
that they get ABOUT the same mileage. So I guess it comes down to
preferences, like tons of low-end torque for the diesel and such. The
F-350's came with straight Dana/Spicer 60 front axles after 85 (or
86?) so you won't be bothered w/the TTB axles. That's all that I can
help you with for now, let us know about the new rig.

I have an 89 F-150 4x4 5.0 liter, 5-speed and I recently had the clutch
replaced. Now if I push in the clutch and try to put it in first it will
grind and then go in, much like a lot of vehicles when you put them in
reverse, only worse. It will only do this if I'm going from Neutral to first,
I'm not moving, or if I push in the clutch and immediatley attempt to put it
in first. It wont grind if i push in the clutch and wait about 5 seconds and
then put it in. This is really starting to annoy me, so I wondered if anybody
knew what was going on. Any Suggestions?-->Tim

Michael,
Can you 'hear' a humm from the starter when engaged? You mentioned it
sounded like it was engaging, but there might not be enough amperage
to produce enough torque. As posted you should be able to turn the
crank by hand! The only trick is finding a place to grip somewhere.
The harmonic balancer is usually a good place to start since the
flywheel usually disappears into the bellhousing leaving almost no
place to get a firm hold. This is going to sound like one of those
stupid troubleshooting answers you find in the back of, say, a new VCR
manual: Symptom: Will not power up Possible problem: Is the
power cord properly attached to a wall outlet.
DUH!, but here it goes anyway, are you sure the battery is fully
charged, or at least enough to produce enough amperage to torque the
starter. If ALL else fails and you just cannot get the starter to
turn the motor, I would try one more thing (albeit expensive....tell
that to the wife). You can by a high-torque starter and see if the
gear reduction is enough to help. I know kind of lame advice in this
post Mike, but it's late and that's the best I can come up w/for now.

Randy (Brew)

I noticed this on my 351W too. But my air filter box has a small
separate filter where the hose enters to catch the oil. It looks kind

on the inside of the air box.

I guess some food for thought here would be:
If the ANTI-sway bars weren't necessary, why is there ANY market at

right? Articulation off-road is what every 'wheeler desires, but you
don't want to take any risks on the other end like that one day next

Subject: Re: FTE 80-96 - Re: Sway Bars

Sway bar disconnects are becoming more common due to state/local regulations
dictating that
regardless of lift you must keep the sway bars attached and functional when
operating on pavement. (it's easier to install disconnects than pulling the 2 bolts
and zip tying it up out of the way.)

Your driving a 4x4, if you use a little common sense in your driving approach it
isn't a major
problem...

Also realize that the longer the wheelbase the less noticeable the lack of sway bars
becomes..
(I drive an 85 Bronco, and having the sway bar disconnected doesn't bother me)
