I no longer have a rusty bed on my truck. In fact I have no bed on my truck currently.

Greg, where did you buy your POR15? Their website doesn't have any kind of a dealer locator but I'd imagine that somewhere like Paint World in New haven would have it. I'm not going to put any new body on my truck until the frame is painted with POR and I've done my in-tank mods.

Exhaust ordered

Summit Racing matched a price for me. Went with the Corsa dual kit, ended up just going for it. Coming directly from Corsa, if I hear from them tomorrow they make it and if I don't, they have it in and are sending it direct.

Hey pete trying this thing called kbs coating. Cheaper but seems to be the same stuff.

Matt that truck is going to sound nasty, i love how the 6.2s sound.

Anyway hello everyone! I was just thinking today and my f250 frame isn't rusted through, its one of the frame holes, and it cracked! around the hole, which then rusted alittle. Not that it makes it any easier, it sounds like the ole 91' was a bit overloaded just alittle at some point.

I bought mine directly from them, but to your point I have seen it from time to time in local stores. Their site offers free shipping most of the time so I usually don't have an issue buying direct.

Good Morning everyone, i guess after driving my truck for a full week after replacing the valve body pieces it's safe to say my trucks now fixed and the issue was the valve body being warped. the techs had all ruled it out as a probable cause because it's so unusual, It was inspected and no visible damage at all. but regardless alls well now and I have a rebuilt tranny with all heavier duty internals , a spare computer, many new sensors, gear selector switch and many other new parts I won't need to worry about for a long time.

Glad to hear you finally got it all worked out. Did you just throw in a replacement OEM valve body?
