Finally have the Ex on the road, I did an IPR Remote oil Cooler, Coolant filter,
FICM repair an other updates, I am working on a write up if I can figure out how to add pictures from my gallery.


I drove her to work this morning, I smell a small exhaust leak but other than that the EOTs are in range and it has good power.

 

It is indeed. Actually, I bought the trailer on Sunday. Will have my first billable job in two days, MUWHAHAHAHAHHAHAH.

 

when you get that number to me i can send him this new photo of my gun collection. that should cheer him up.

 

I NEED EYEBLEECH!!!!!!!
NOW!!!!!
AaaaaaaAARGHHH!!!!

 

The former owner of this truck has had a bad week. Supposedly sold his truck 3 years ago to Auto-Nation and it ended up in Syria complete with all his advertising intact.

 

Ordered 6.0 trans cooler from RockAuto, $55 shipped. Seems cheap, but I dunno.

 

dang thats good, got a link to it?

 

Last week I did hub bearing unit on the left side and changed the fluid in both diffs. Also did outer axle seal and dust seal on left side. Made my own seal punch to get it seated in the knuckle.

Yesterday I pulled the steps off the X, don't know if I like the look?!




It's a little harder to get into also lol.

While under the X rom ing the steps I notice the right stub shaft was damp with fluid, looks like I'm gonna have to pull that side apart to replace the inner axle seal......

 

I'm not back, I just have to get rid of this damn humming in my intake and needed to see if I could find my thread on it. I wanted you guys to know that I'm still here and miss you all terribly. There is not much to do not being able to come on here all hours of the day and talk but I've been trying to fill my time with little things. Sammie, don't worry I'm not wallowing, not feeding the beast USCG, thanks for everything. The emails were great and it's nice to know that there are others still out there. Mecdac has been texting me every day or so and knows what's going on, but nothing is going to happen. For the moment I'm just going to keep my truck and be happy (unless someone with a burgundy rig wants to give me a sweet deal) and not worry about ever getting a new one. I'll try to get back on here in a few days and catch up but I need to go for now. If I start reading things I'll be here for hours trying to catch up on everything I missed

 

Starting to think I didn't get the right one for lots of cooling capacity.

isnt factory a pancake cooler? that looks like your standard aftermarket cooler.

 

6.0L Transmission Cooler 26 Row - Riffraff Diesel Performance

 

Just sourced one from a local used parts place. From an '05 F350, $95. Will go grab it in a bit! Woot!

 

rock auto has a aftermarket version thats comparable. i dont think its much more then that.
