    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.

    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  8 місяців 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!

    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.
