Rear Pumpkin, seats, Cam sensor

Hey guys , im new to this, but ive had some work done by The Diesel Dr. and he told me to get on here that yall were a good group of guys.
anyway I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a black camshaft sensor? the grey ones aren't cutting it and my truck eats them up.
also my rear pumpkin differential is leaking like where the shaft goes into it, I have no idea that that is or if its bad?
im also looking for 2000 model leather seats 40/20/40 split bench electric driver manual passenger. and if available also the full center console then the seats with the arm rest attached. Thanks a bunch and I hope to hear yalls comments.
Billy

Check the vent on your rear diff before you replace the leaky pinion seal. If the vent is plugged, it could be causing pressure inside, and the leak.

Don't mind them, they're just breezing through on their way to the next member in need (capes flapping behind them). Welcome to the forum! Chris is a great guy and he likes to help people when he can. If you want to learn about your truck, this is the place. You may not always get immediate answers... but what we don't know, we're eager to learn with you.

Welcome to FTE !! I agree with Steve and check the diff vent first. And that is called the pinion seal that is right behind the driveshaft. And as far as cps goes not all black cps are the same. The good IH cps ( Black) are very hard to find. Personally I think someone is sitting on cases of them. Because I can't find them anymore. And as far as the seat goes your best bet is junk yard or craigslist. Or check the for sale area on the forum.

Hey there Billy!
Glad to see you signed on! Welcome aboard...

I look forward to plugging in with AE this weekend so we can see whats goin on..

Depending on what day... you might meet another member of the 7.3 Brotherhood...
twg1966 and i will be doing (tentatively) injector orings and turbo rebuild on his truck...

And im prepping TXtinct's Excursion for engine swap... so 7.3 party at my place this weekend? Lol

Did the replacement ebps tube make any difference for you on the shifts or economy?

(Guys give Billy some props... he researched the ebps on his own... and followed the procedure on his own... and discovered bad tube, ordered his own replacement, and installed it!)

Well Chris I won't be doing my truck this weekend, aside from some simple things. With it being Mother's Day and all, I will be in town for a short while tomorrow getting the car inspected and an alignment.

I will try to drop by the house when I finish my errands.
