does that mean you used the debit card to fix the clunk??

 

I had the slip joint clunk and fixed it with some pretty blue Motorcraft grease....

Where is your clunk located?

 

i dunt have one... i was asking miles if he Macgyvered it with his debit card lol

 

no...im not really sure where i left my debit card...and im leaving on sunday and it takes 7-10 days to get a new one so, hoping i can get one from another bank tomorrow

the clunk turned out to be my rear shocks, no idea how that made it feel like there was a sound under the drivers floorboards but it did. took them out and reinstalled 2 times and went away completely without the shocks. i did 1 at a time and one of them clunks worse than the other, but without shocks there is 0 clunks

 

Good deal. A truck that looks that good shouldn't be "clunking"!

 

Let's see... Today was finish off the Jack Battery Cable upgrades -- verified on Torque that significant higher voltages are seen across the board

Fuel filters changed and reminded me of how much of a PITA the HFCM filter is on a 4wd But put on the new HFCM drain plug, so it was worth it...

Coolant filter changed and dumped the filter to see what came out: a minuscule amount of fine sand; still plan to cut it open and see what is in the pleats.

Then took him for a drive and romped on it to record max boost and make sure all is ok with so much "sit-time". 26.1 psi on the boost is what I expect...

What a damn nice truck I have

 

Pulled a trailer with a large mower on it to my parents.

 

Thanks guys, I can't wait to get it on the road again. Its been 7 years now. I'm ready.
I'm thinking a set of Moto Metal 18" black wheels with machined accents.

 

I did noting other than just drive and enjoy the nice smooth
ride after the bad driveline center bearing and U-joint issues.

SRL is fun to drive when the truck no longer shakes at takeoff.

Apparently i havent shown the girl enough attention since i got the mustang as a daily! Got half way home yesterday and bam she got temperamental on me and #7 injector took a **** on me. Looks like a set of all 8 is in my future. Not really how i wanted to spend money at the moment while trying to buy a house.

 

I'll be driving mine home from the airport... been sitting there 27 days!

Next week Tuesday I'm going to harpoon a 2008 short bed tank and install that. 33 gallons will be a decent increase from the 29, since it doesn't fill all the way anyway. That should get me about a 6 gallon increase or so and a 600 mile range.

Thursday, I'm driving to New Hampshire, 1500 round trip.

 

Gave it a wash and cleaned it up, then got a case of the death wobble. I love it but my body just won't let me work on it any more. Looks like it's time for something else.

 

Back when I was draining the HCFM every month (and saying under my breath that if I supervised the engineer who put the HFCM where it was I have him change those filters at a dealership for a year) I got motivated to move it. Wasn't that hard but you eat diesel while doing so. Took about 2 hours but I had the tank down at the time. It's so much easier behind the transfer case and I can't figure out why they didn't put it there in the first place.

 

I would too...

I'd also make sure every one they touched had a full tank of diesel too....

 

Very nice truck. I had a 79 for a while painted the same color. very nice!
