I know it's been done. Look around on the forum at http://www.ford-trucks.com/. Great site for info!

Airgas has a 220v 180is mig,tig, stick combo going for 8 something

I think I found the problem. When I installed the gears, I must of missed a small piece of styrofoam from the new bearings. It was in the breather hose. I'll have to drive it around and see if that was it. Thanks for the help guys.

I have a 79 F250 4x4 and the D44 is leaking oil out the breather hose even when it hasn't been in 4 wheel drive in months. I checked and everthing is disengauged(the Tcase, hubs). I don't get it. Any ideas?

The drissy dosn't go through the intake on a 460. It's in the block between intake and timing cover.

I had the same problem with my 460. I sprayed it with PB blaster for a couple days and worked it loose with a big pair of channel locks. Then while turning I gave it alittle prying up to get it out. Good luck.

Sounds like I"ll give aablu bros a call today. Thanks for the replies.

I'm in the need of front and rear U bolts for my truck and cant see spending $25 on shipping alone. So where is a good local place to have a couple of pairs made? I live north of Seattle

The 99 does have the metric wheel pattern. I havent seen or herd of any one making a hub to go to metric (just the other way around). The only thing that I know would wheel adapters from like a dapt it usa wheel adapters. Maybe someone else might know of something else. Good luck

You prob just got water in the dist cap. dry it out with some carb cleaner and wipe it out.

I'm in. Thanks Bobby

I would start with thw easy stuff first. 1) make sure plug wirees are in the right order 2) dist. might be just to far advanced or retarded 3) make sure all sensors are plugged in 4) is there gas in the truck? give that a try (if you haven't already) and see what happens

Damn. I was really looking forward to the posi. I haven't bought it yet(Trying to get the money together for front and rear). Thanks guys for the replies. I might just order gears and install kits and do it my self(for about the price)

All I know is that the door sticker axle code was G144. From what I have read (on pirates) is its supposed to be 8" with 4.875, 4 pinion LSD

Ok then. Thanks
