Good Day Gentleman. Don't mean to barge in and HiJack Arkansas as a Vistor but since I have a farm and pay taxes what the heck. I'm trying to help my brother out who is fortunate to live in south central part of the state and unforuntate enough to have a 2004 6.0 that likely is going to require studs, egr delete, remote oil cooler and the works as it has now gotten hot and has white and blue smoke from exhaust. So the question is who in central Arkansas does he take it to for major repair and aftermarket stuff, studs ext cooler etc.

I had hoped to get it done one weekend before I leave, but I really don't think it's going to happen. I'm running quite short on time. My last days in Arkansas are looking to be around August 7th-8th or so Are you any good at rebuilding turbos? Can the Super Duty GTP38 even be rebuilt for that matter?

I've been an FTE Member a long time and post little to none but do read and have used many suggestions. Also i see screen names that are valuable pieces of info on the 6.0. Living in Memphis an having an early 2003 6.0 i know who to take mine to when needed. at 213,000 i have had to take it very little, (knock on wood).
I've searched for an Arkansas location until the point i finally came here. I did see Lead hill was the place up north but he's in Dallas County so LR to Monroe to Texarkana is possible. Last resort is I pull it on the 30 foot Goose neck and bring it here, but if it needs follow up thats not cost effective.
Thanks guys.
Hope someone has suggstions.....

Thank Zhilton and Npccpartsman.
After many calls all over south central-south Arkansas it appears the Blue Oval Location in Ouachita county in knowledgeable enought to know what an EGR Delete, External Cooler and Studs are on a 6.0. (and I mean that in a good way)
Will let the board know how it goes as there may be others whom will need this service.
Anyone in East Arkansas needs some help let me know, I can hook ya up in the Memphis Area. Actually Collierville.

The app is designed to work with a Bluetooth adapter, but since my tablet doesn't have Bluetooth I had to make it work with a WiFi adapter. If I had an android phone I could indeed run it on the phone, but I like it better with the 8" screen.

I think 90% of the people that see "OBS" just assume it's an IDI. Hell, most people think that the powerstroke didn't exist until the Super Duty. I like proving those people wrong.

Rebuild kits for the stock turbo are cheap....and there are plenty of on line how-to's
