Anything past 20-30,000 (router speed) is amazing to me. I guess once past 100k rpm, it's all the same to a finger.

I poked in there to check if it was dragging/rubbing or shifting around. It seems Ok and the turbo sound seems normal for now. I'll have to get the stuff ready for a change anyway.
Geoff,
Sounds like a great family u have there! I like your picture in your avatar .
Sounds like the old turbo is good. Our Sponsor Xtreme diesel sells the WW for like $60. Good luck!

Thanks, Nut. They're great. Don't get me wrong but, if the right mod comes along, they're on Ebay!

I'll check out the turbo on Xtreme.

GeoffNJ-

I started a thread on teh Wicked Wheel a couple days ago here: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/s...d.php?t=467286

I am sold on one since I will be installing my exhaust soon and that is part of the labor anyway!

Here is a link to very good instructions with good pictures as well:
http://www.blackclouddiesel.com/Tech...on%20Guide.pdf

The cheapest place I found the wheel was at the site sponsor Xtreme Diesel Performance here:
http://www.xtremediesel.com/index.as...ROD&ProdID=260

I hope that helps cure your PMS for the next 10 minutes!

Wow, and only $8.00 to ship it? I'm guessing his shelves are full of them...and will be for a while.

Thanks, Lushman.
That does look like an easy install. Once the v-clamp is loose, it's all down hill from there. The worst part of the exhaust job was that.

I'm still laughing at the pic of the girl with her hand in the diesel smoke on the "stacks" page. I can imagine asking my wife to do that for a pic.
