    BPD water pump

    Looks I’m going to change out a water pump again. I’ve always used oem Motorcraft pumps, but they seem to only last 2-3 years. I’ve never had an impeller break, just leaks from the bearing. Are the bpd pumps that much better?

    6.0 oil questions

    Got a question. I run a kdd stage 1 long block in my 06. I’ve ran nothing but schaeffers 15w40 since it’s been broken in. I’ve been wondering if anyone runs a 5w40 or 10w30 in this particular engine? Kdd recommends schaeffers 15w40, but is there a particular reason for it? I know several...

    06 ebp normal readings

    Have a question on ebp readings. I use a Sct livewire to read my ebp values. They are set to read in Kpa currently. At idle, on initial startup, it reads 430-440kpa. With an open vane at idle tune, it will go down to 340-360kpa. What is the normal range? I normally don’t monitor ebp, but it...

    7.3 fan clutch noise

    how loud is the fan clutch upgrade supposed to actually be? I’ve had it for a few years, but I can’t remember how loud it was when I originally installed it. I hadn’t used the truck for a while due to bad head gaskets. It holds the ect to 198-202F all day, even in 105F south Texas weather. To...

    My 06 sometimes pukes coolant out the degas cap. It has a kdd stage 1 long block, Kc stage 1, oringed heads and oem gaskets with arp studs, and 175/stock injectors. I used to run an atlas 40 as well. I have tried the atlas 80, but I dont like the extra egts that come with it. I’m going to hook a...

    Upgrading turbo

    I currently run a Kc stage 1 10 blade on my 6.0. I’m wanting to upgrade, as I feel I’d benefit from extra airflow. Driving without towing is great, but towing is where I’d like an improvement. I was thinking of trying the diy kit with a 63.5mm blade. I have my oem turbo to put together. Would I...

    06 2.5” icon springs and shims

    I’ve looked, but haven’t found an answer. I have the 2.5” icon springs, with shims installed on my truck. I would like to add more lift, but have not decided on how much. I’m thinking of using a 1” bottom mount coil spacer, I don’t know at what point I need to drop the radius arms. If I need to...

    Dually 20” Toyo rt

    I recently bought some 20” black milled Cali brutals for my 2019 dually. I’ve always been a fan of Toyos, but have never had the rt. I’ve ran the mts with 50k+ miles, and the at with several sets going over 60k. I ordered the rt in 305/55r20, 12 ply. Has anyone used this size, and how are they...

    2019 first oil change

    My dually hit 7500 miles, so I decided to go ahead and do the first oil change. The oil life meter said 23%, so I think I’m in a good place to change the oil. I’m running Schaeffers oil in everything I own. I decided to run the 10w30 ultra performance. I took advantage of adding the fumoto...

    2019 F-350 drw leaf spring pin size

    I went ahead and added a 1” pmf bmc spacer on my new 19 dually, but wanted to add the oem rear blocks off my 06 in place of the oem 1” blocks. I removed the 1”, and slid the 2” blocks in. I then lowered the leaf back down, and realized the leaf spring pin is now larger than the older dually...

    2019 f350 leaking water into cab

    I hit 3500 miles in my 19 dually. It leaked water into the cab above the a-pillar 2 weeks after I brought it home. Took back to the dealer, and they couldn’t get it to leak again. It hasn’t rained since then, until now. Again, it’s leaking and I actually took pictures this time. I’m taking back...

    06 getting some work done

    After buying a new truck to replace my 06 dually, I realized I missed using my old truck. I’m sending it in to get studded, new lifters, and probably a cam as well. It was used as my welding truck, and to tow my 40ft gooseneck with materials for some of the jobs I do. I currently have a kc stage...

    5w40 Schaeffers oil

    I’ve been running Schaeffers 9000 5w40 in my 6.0 powerstroke and lml duramax for years now. I was wanting to run it in my new 2019 6.7 when the oil monitor tells me to change it. I looked on a list of approved oils for the 6.7, and their 10w-30 and 15w40 is on their, but the 5w40 isn’t. Has...

I picked up a new 2019 f350 Cclb drw, 4x4, white platinum ultimate lariat. I’m going to use it as my welding truck. Plans are front and rear replacement bumpers, 2” level...

    2006, crank, no start

    Early this year, sometime in January, my 06 started giving me problems. It wouldn’t start, so after some testing I bought the parts I needed and fixed it. It has been running with no issues since then. I was grossing around 22k pulling up a hill when I noticed I had no boost. I pulled over, and...

    2006 tunes with kc stage 1

    My factory turbo finally started leaking oil after 333k. I decided to go ahead and upgrade it to a kc stage 1. I installed it, and it feel like it’s a small gain in performance. I run quicktricks and TSD tunes. Both the tow tunes feel good throughout the entire rpm range. The mpd tune feels...

    Tuning at 330k

    I’ve been thinking about running some tuning on my truck for several years. I’ve done several mods for reliability, but not for power. It always been a damn good truck, and I decided to run an atlas tune about a year ago. It worked great, and I finally bit the bullet and bought an sct 5015...
