    Hydroboost troubleshooting

    I'm having some issues with the hydroboost system on my truck (2000 7.3 F550). The brakes still work, but the brake pedal had gotten very stiff. The power steering totally fine 90% of the time, but occasionally gets a bit heavier than usual, usually at low speeds. How can I tell if the booster...

    Anybody into Archery?

    Anybody into archery? I haven't really shot bows since I was a kid, but I'd like to get back into it. My daughter got to shoot a bow at the Fair and liked it, so I picked her up a beginner bow. I've got my dad's old bow, which is about 40+ years old and I would like to pick up something new that...

    7.3 Alternator

    Does anybody have any recommendations for a good replacement alternator (or what to avoid) for a 2000 7.3? I can't afford to go with some super fancy one, I don't need anything over powered, just a good quality OEM replacement that won't crap out a few months down the road.

    7.3 up pipe replacement

    I am going to pull my turbo on my 2000 550 this winter to replace the housing to get rid of my turbo surge and do the EBPV delete. Since I'm going to have everything pulled off, I figure I might as well take care of some other stuff while I am at it (going to replace my glow plugs and valve...

    Gauge question - Boost pressure

    So I want to add a gauge in my cab to monitor my tank pressure for my air suspension. I don't really want to add another pod anywhere, so I was thinking about replacing my current boost gauge with one of these dual pressure monitoring gauges, have one monitor the tank and the other monitor...

    Portable propane fire pits

    Thinking about buying a portable propane fire pit to keep in the trailer since it seems like more and more places aren't allowing open fires, plus the possibility of summer burn bans. I do not want anything real big, something like a 15" diameter or so. Just wondering if anybody has any...

    Any riding lawnmower gurus?

    I am totally stumped on what is wrong with my POS riding lawnmower. It is a late 90's/early 2000 Scott's 1742 (rebadged John Deere) with a 17hp Briggs motor. Tried to get it out the other day to mow and it won't start, the starter isn't wanting to turn freely. So I took it off and pulled it...

    7.3 - Random rough idle and power loss

    I have been having a strange random issue with my truck (2000 F550), while driving down the road the check engine light will come on and it will start running really rough and it will lose power. It is totally random, it has happened anywhere from 10mph to 60mph, in 30* temp to 95* temp. When it...

    Inverters

    So I'm starting to shop around for inverters for my trailer. I know I want at least a 2000 watt inverter and I want pure sine wave inverter. I see some inverters in the $1000-$2000 price range and I don't want to spend anywhere near that, but I also don't want to buy some Chinese POS either...

    Lets see your RVs

    I thought we might as well start a picture thread like we have in the tow rig section. This is my money pits, 2000 F550 and a 2003 32' Fleetwood Pride.

    Mac's Versatie Tracks

    I was curious if anybody had any experience with Mac's Versatie Tracks. Since the 550 has the low sided bed with the notched tailgate area, the normal junk I usually just tossed in the bed of the old truck probably wouldn't stay back there very long. I thought a good track system would make it...

    Well it isn't officially mine for a few more days, but here she is... 2000 4wd Ford F550 Lariet 7.3 w/79,000 miles. It has air suspension in the rear, you can flip a switch and it will self level itself, pretty awesome. It has a Pacbrake Exhaust brake on it. It has a Transfer Flow dual tank...

    1/2" Impact

    So I have finally got around to redoing the half-assed leaky air lines in my shop so I figure its time to invest in a new 1/2" impact. I want something decent, but don't want to break the bank since it's only going to get the occasional use, preferably in the $100-$125 price range. Just curious...

    Glow plugs

    Im going to replace the glow plugs and relay in my '95 7.3, not sure of I should just get stock replacements or go with aftermarket stuff, I was looking at DieselRx ones and the price seems decent. Thoughts?

    Les' scaler

    Well a few years ago I decided I wanted to build a scaler version of Land Cruiser, it never went real far, here was the thread I started way back then: http://warcrc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=12147 Since my old shafty wasn't really suited for comps anymore I decided to revive the scaler...

    Elbe 4/10

    Had a nice run out at Elbe today, ran pretty much everything except the Busy. It was a sloppy mess out there, I haven't seen it that bad in a while, but it was still a lot of fun. It was my last run before my daughter is born at the end of the month, plus I got to test out the new 39.5" Iroks...
