    Lug stud engagement with after market wheels.

    Fellas, I have recently picked up some 19.5s for my obs. They are a little bit thicker then my oe alcoas. I have attached pictures of the lug nuts engagement. I think it will be ok but what do you guys think? Thanks Ryan

    Crazy front end conversion.

    I really want to change the lug pattern on my obs from 8x6.5 to 10x225. One possibility I have come across is f53 chassis. In the little bit of research I have done it would appear they use the same inner and outer bearings. Is it possible to swap hubs from the RV chassis to the pickup?

    95 f350 ride quality

    I have heard that the frames crack with air bags due to the frame being loaded in a spot not designed to carry that load. I want to have the ability to quickly reverse what i do so we can carry a large load in case we need the dually to pull the gooseneck instead of my friends 6.7. I am torn...

    95 f350 ride quality

    I just noticed I forgot to mention earlier my truck is a 2wd dually. With the 2" drop shackles I am concerned about having to find rear shock in a different length so the valving doesn't make them unnecessarily stiff. We have been doing a lot of driving in her recently. We put 10k miles on it in...

    95 f350 ride quality

    Slow day at the shop today. I was looking at my truck trying to figure out how I wanted to go about the overload/auxillary springs. I had the idea to remove the perches on the frame rather then the springs them self, that way I could use grade 8 hardware to bolt them back in when I needed the...

    95 f350 ride quality

    Hey guys so I am looking to improve the ride of my truck a little bit. I have 2" drop shackles on the back. I have been debating on pulling my overload springs out. You can see in the picture they are quite close and that they have been touching. I haven't hauled anything heavy in 6-7 months so...

    WTB 19.5x6

    I am looking to buy 4 aluminum outer 19.5x6 with 8x6.5 bolt pattern for my obs. I am in Joplin Mo and travel frequently to Wichita Ks. I would be willing to drive to neighboring states for a good deal. I would like to make a deal with trading my factory Alcoa 16".

    1995 centurion resto-mod

    I am back. It has been a long time. The dually has come a long way since my last update. Don't let the pictures fool you she still has a long way to go. You can see my rear flares are still busted and the front fenders still rotted. I guess you can call it a "rat rod" look. I guess that's what...

    I beam interchangability?

    Wow it has been a while since I have logged in. Hopefully someone on here can help me figure something out. I am trying to figure out a pretty unique swap and part of it requires trying to put a superduty srw front hub on my obs dually. Has anyone tried to swap complete spindle from a 2wd...

    What is causing the 7.3 to run like this

    I checked the fuel pressure with a gauge that can read 80 psi and I am seeing about about 54-56 psi. I have been asking around and I am hearing the edge may be apart of the problem. I had someone e tell me the codes I had seen were generic codes for low hpop pressure. What do you guys think. I...

    What is causing the 7.3 to run like this

    New development Alright. So the check engine light has been on and off for the past week since I had my first problem with it wanting to die. It has been lately where the injectors will get loud and the truck will shake. But every now and then they quiet down and it runs smooth as silk. I was...

    What is causing the 7.3 to run like this

    Is there a way to test the ipr valve? I have a receipt from the previous owner from a Ford dealer where it was supposed to be replaced.

    What is causing the 7.3 to run like this

    Ok I need some advice about my 7.3. After driving the truck from Joplin to Springfield yesterday the truck seemed to want to die as I pulled into a parking lot. I pushed in the clutch and the truck barely idled. Then out of no where it went to a high idle and then smoothed out. It threw a code...

    OBS dually on 22 low pro advice

    Hey guys. I am wanting to get a plan put together for my centurion and I have always wanted a dually on 22. My question is do you guys think a 285/50r22 would fit well on the truck with stock suspension. I would like to lower the truck a little too but I don't want to have to jack it up. Thanks...

    Please help figure out why I keep going through diodes

    Yes both battery have been checked off the truck. Both are good. One is a red top optima and the other is a duralast gold. The guys who rebuilt the alternator said their amperages were close enough to not be an issue. After looking the alternator over they said that it burned the windings...

    Please help figure out why I keep going through diodes

    Ok quick update. So I had the newley re built alternator on the truck for less then 20 minutes before leaving Joplin MO for Austin TX. The truck did great running 75 down there. It was great for the few days I was there. My return trip was smooth until I got off the highway in Joplin and started...
