Food for thought Blue Top does some of the work for Redhead IIRC.

Won't hapoen at least for me.

Member here on M73M which happens to be @dorkweed he ran his CR engine 80k plus miles on a single oil change on WalMart SuperTech 15w-40 and Fleetguard filters and a MotorGuard bypass filter. Was testing every 7k with blackstone and no issues till somewhere around 80k miles silicone was up from doing valve lash. He did the same thing change filters and topped off.

I wonder how I got to 385k miles without 2 LO all these years? Only on my second clutch. Hmmm...

Mine looked pretty darn good. When the head was off the cylinder wall were in excellent condition except for on cylinder that had a debris rub the cylinder wall enough that you can see color difference but not feel it. You can see it in number 4 cylinder. 385k miles on the clock and rolling 1,000 miles a week.

Because a rebuilder cannot set everything up in a loaded condition. In other words making the final adjustment taking the slack out. Even had the same thing happen with Blue Top Steering. I have to tighten the sector adjustment a 1/4 turn more. Hard to test on a bench test and then install to a truck and find there is some slack. They don't have a truck to bench test on. Stock steering box only has two adjustment which are listed right in the FSM book. Sector adjustment and bearing pre-load. Those are the only 2 adjustments. Typically the sector adjustment is left too loose to prevent over the center bind up.

I rebuilt numerous Ford ,Dodge and Chevy steering box they are easy as pie. The only thing that is time consuming is getting the 22 ball bearing back into the worm gear. That is it...

Fuel filters are like oil filters anything poured into the center hole is unfiltered. This why I will not fill oil filter or a fuel filter before installing. Even though many shops still fill the filters before installing. It only takes a little bit of debris and it will do its harm to the engine or the injection pump. The only way you can fill a filter without the worry is fill through the side ring holes which is the filter inlet or don't fill it at all and use the pump to prime or priming lever. Even if you ask @AH64ID he will tell you the same thing. I have been getting 60k miles from my fuel filters now.

Other bills first, then back to upgrading.

You might want to talk to @Blue-Top Steering He's got rebuild kits that allow you to do it yourself. Really easy.

Dang... I love all these weird trip switches. The Jacobs Brake uses the ECM for the trigger there is an empty pin on the plug that you insert into and it toggles the exhaust brake on and off.

I never fill the filter with canned diesel it dirty fuel and unfiltered. That is the first thing to the injection pump. I always work the primer lever or the prime cycle on the key to fill the filter back up.

Yeah, we care around here and would like to see you make the million miles on your truck. You still out ahead of me. Stay there...

I found you something on Facebook.

Because of the crow hoping it will do on corners and the stress it puts on the front driveline.

@dripley just needs to change what he's smokin'. That would protect him from the cancer that tobacco will give him and help heal his lungs from the tars in tobacco smoke.

Neat... I might have to upgrade to that. One for IGN powered items. One for BATT powered items. Better yet... ATM fuse panel instead of the larger ATC fuse panel... https://www.amazon.com/Position-Mini-Fuse-Panel-pack/dp/B00O7SEZDO

Out here in Idaho lots of ground has been changed into Wilderness Areas where motorized vehicles are not allowed. Then preventing majority of people from traveling out there unless you have an outfitter guide or a horse. Like all the mountain behind me is a wilderness area. All the roads a gated off and only the rich people that can afford the $25,000 outfitter fees can access this ground now. Not fair. With USFS and Idaho Dept of Lands closing more roads and access to the forest this in now creating your posted problem because there are less areas people can go to enjoy.

Pin 5 is the key on signal.

As @Blue-Top Steering told me about my 350k mile steering box. The Walmart SuperTech fluid did an awesome job and there was ZERO wear in my box just the seals failed from rust and dirt. Just change the fluid every 30k miles. No issues with cold all the way to -40*F. Still running my factory OE pump yet.

W-T mod is very very simple. Not hard at all. I've done 3 vehicles now and can complete the project in mere 1.0 to 1.5 hours. As long as all the materials are present.

This is where you need to enhance the air flow over the transmission cooler with a electric fan. I always though the idea of ISSPro EV2 transmission temperature gauge and ISSPro programmable relay and turn on a cooling fan at about 180*F.

You can try a APPS reset... I seriously doubt the APPS is the cause being the 5 volt signal is not being generated this makes ALL the sensors including the APPS wrong. First you need to fix the 5V problem before changing APPS sensors other than that you buying a APPS for nothing and still have the problem.

Vitamin C has a broad spectrum antioxidant function with the ability to protect cell structures and DNA from free radical damage. Vitamin C is remarkably safe even in enormously high doses. Compared to commonly used prescription drugs, side effects are virtually nonexistent.

For those that are considering doing chemo for cancer treatments just consider what is in the chemo. http://chemocare.com/chemotherapy/what-is-chemotherapy/types-of-chemotherapy.aspx Thankfully I've never had to do chemo but I figured it was worth bringing up here and let everyone know what is in chemo and how its a poison.
