I also Need the tread pitch and size for the bolts that connects the drive shaft to transfer case and carrier bearing hold down bolts before starting this thread so please give a brotha some help.

That's right lady's and gentlemen, I might become a new member to the Super Duty section not sure yet though still haven't decided if I should keep or flip.

So here's what I have:
It's a dirty girl its a 2000 f250 Lariat crew cab long bed 4x4 auto 462k unmolested truck but suffered from extreme neglect, engine is bad and so are injectors planing on making a quick flip but that may change don't know yet but for sure it's going to get worked on minus the engine if it becomes a flip if I decide to keep it engine tare down is 100% a guarantee, and since everybody like pics heres the "new" truck.

It is a dirty girl alright. Body appears to be in decent shape though, so that is a plus.

I don't have the details on the thread pitch, but I am sure someone will be along shortly with some good information.

Whatever you decide to do with it, we are looking forward to watching the journey it takes.

Assuming the Texas frame is good, truck is solid bones to work from. Lariat with a double DIN, can't go wrong.

In spite of the smoke and dusted wheel I'd do a compression check before springing for a whole engine.

Definitely too many Marlboro’s, those lungs are shot... No need to compression test if it’s puffing like the magic dragon at the oil filler.

If someone can’t find the bolt specs, I can see if I’ve got some to measure.

Good luck! Look forward to seeing what ya do with it!!

The driveshaft to transfer case bolts are M12 if memory serves. Let's have SSJ measure and confirm though. When you do figure it out, please add it to the Fastener Size Chart.

Edit: I believe this is what you're looking for: https://torqueking.com/product/20103...bolt-for-ford/. Don't cheap out on these. They're class 12.9.

is a 4" front lift in the works to go with the light bar?

Sweet truck, fingers crossed shes not dusted! Looks like another testament to the durability of the 7.3/superduty platform

It’s possible you could find some suitable replacements at a Fastenal store

Ok found all the bolts I needed. Ill post some part #'s in the AM thanks guys for the help.







Clean the engine somewhat and took VC off some stock injectors, and some unknown injector on the engine forgot to take picture of driver side once the injector shim kit gets here ill take some pics.

So far ordered:
injector shim kit
Bellow up pipes
front head lights (clear type)
new 5x5 Turbo wheel (no play in shaft so no rebuild kit) and had a good one in my parts locker

Stuff done today:
Cleaned engine (need more cleaning but its a great start)

Installed glow plugs (good thing the ones in there were Beru's so all came out with no problemo)

Hot torqued injectors (they were loose and were knocking like crazy (ask Byron) now they are quiet no knocking and sounds good.

Installed drive shaft and test and drove it shifts good, and 4x4 works need to fix the vacuum lines going to the hubs.
