Ahhhh.... Another HotRod in the house!!!!

With all the Hi-Zoot controls and finicky HPFP on the 6.7's, I doubt I will keep mine beyond warranty... Although it would be nice to get rid of DEF...
The last diesels I worked on were my 1984 6.9 and the 1992 5.9 Cummins in my old motorhome...
Those engines and systems were stupid-simple although timing them correctly was an art....

Brakes are fixed. One frozen caliper and on stuck slide pin. But one leaky steering box to be replaced (again) sometime later.

Not sure exactly Chris. Probably the top again as the whole thing is soaked and dripping like crazy. Dave is going to see what a Ford reman will cost. Return the Cardone junk and pay the difference. This is the 2nd replacement and we are done with the crap.

Evening guys!

Well we managed to add 5" exhaust and straight pipe the truck today along with adding the H&S mini maxx. Also did an oil change and fuel filter change. Intake will be going on as soon as UPS can find where they lost it. This truck is a whole lot of fun now!
