    Awesome find Tyler! 😁👍 Years back I had a '94.5 F350 4x4 5 speed Centurion conversion with the 7.3 Powerstroke. Truck had 400K plus miles. *It was a land yacht!* 🤣 I think you will make a good chunk of change selling this truck. Glad to see Zane was there to help. Enjoyed the video very much. Take care, be safe and happy wrenching 🔧🔩

    Cluster was most likely installed with the engine, as the 7.3PS cluster is unique. If you paint it make sure to replace the cab mount bushings as they’re clearly shot. S&B silicone ones are pricey, but the best you can get.

    lol i work on a 92 powerstroke swapped f super duty (basically an f450). It''s a little bit of a special truck though. It has two standard transmissions with a double overdrive. Differential geared at 5.13 and the double overdrive brings it down to a 4.10. It's the ambulance package turned into a truck that will haul anything. It's kind of cool for what it is, but the chassis has 500k miles on the engine 330k. Everything is tired and its time for a new truck. Guy says he's never put a clutch in it with all 500k miles cuz he never slips it so that's kinda cool if it's true.

    Just found your channel and I'm loving it! Some really good content. I've got 2 powerstrokes currently. I'm needing to level my 97 CC dually ... I noticed that this one had front blocks on it. Just curious on how they felt? Ive heard conflicting reviews on running them. Really wanna throw a RSK on it but i just need an inch or two to run bigger tires and thats the "Cheap" way out.

    • @tcfinds
      @tcfinds  Рік тому

      The blocks are debatable. These actually didn’t feel too bad but I hardly drove it before I sold it. I would just get a decent set of blocks and you’ll probably be fine. Not much different than these guys running leveling kits in their coil springs. Thanks for tuning in!

    My 1500 dodge ram is a 2000 and when I got it the guy told me it had a charging issue he said he was pretty certain was a bad alternator but when you jumpstart the truck it stays running until you turn the key off which told me that the alternator is fine, but it turned out the battery was leaking and it ran down the sides and the i believe it was a ground coming out of the engine side power distribution center fuse box and the cable was almost rotted in two.. replaced that and a decent battery fires right up no problem..
