I have owned many vehicles and worked as a ford tech many years ago but this is my first leap into the diesel world and so far its pretty fantastic.





Very nice truck. Welcome, what part of sacramento..in on the Roseville/ Citrus Heights line

Hello all, lets give a warm welcome to our newest member, jppdot3 who just bought a 1974 Ford truck and wants to learn more about it. You have come to the right place. If you can't find out what you are looking for on these forums, it doesn't exist.

Hi all, I'm new to the online community, but have found the fte knowledge to be awesome. Would love to connect with other Ford owners and events to stay current.

My name is Dave and I live in yuba city. I drive a 2002 f250 SD 7.3L 4wd crew cab touring edition. I have afe intake and straight 4" exhaust. Other than a hutch mod, no other changes.

The work beast

Thank you. Look forward to meeting some of you. Does anyone have any knowledge of pitman arms? I took my trick in to less schwab to have a nail pulled from my tire, and they said my pitman arm was loose. My steering is fine, so not sure what they are talking about. I had considered getting a f250 arm because they are offset for my raised truck and about. 25" longer. I think that would decrease my turn radius. My wheels don't hit the stops as it is.
