Front steering you might want to pull the stock sagnaw steering box and do a adjustment or rebuild if leaking. There is two adjustments on the steering box and one of then has to be done outside the vehicle. It would be a good suggest to invest the $35 to $40 bucks in a seal kit rebuild it and readjust the box and you would have tight box once again with the huge cost of Redhead or other names.

Disconnecting the batteries will no reset anything software wise other than APPS values that the only thing it dumps.

Oil leaking past your turbo? Oil in the intercooler? Bad injector(s)? Might consider pop testing.

Welcome back. Most are heading to FASS pumps.

After working with my Fire Chief on a Ford 6.0L Diesel I need this jacket... Dodge Cummins isn't so bad... But Ford... OMG! Like my Fire Chief and I will agree you need to take all the engineers out back and beat them with a ugly stick. Then tell them all to go back and fix that turd call a 6.0L Ford Powerstroke. Who in their right mind builds a truck that requires the body to be lifted off.

What was so bad about it?

Mean this one?You make me sick...Heck I just got done wash it again. Darn windows were so bad you bare see out any more.Smarty Touch http://madselectronics.com/SmartyTouch.htmlI can tell that is the PCM loom. Can't tell what else is there too.All based on software design. Mine will run on for a short span after the key is turned off on a starter bump. Now just shut the key off on a normal run it will shutdown instantly. The normal start and run mode is a safety design so if the vehicle is in a accident the all fuel pump are shut down instantly. This prevents a lift pump feeding fuel to possible fire.AH64ID you might want to school Taz up on CR injectors and the failing points. I would have to say the truck is "True Stock" yet. I've never seen per say but talked to him enough to know some of the basics.My bad... I was think stock only... Yes "most" aftermarket pump do have a relay. Now like the Raptor series for direct replacement of stock it does NOT have a relay. So be aware some do have extra relay and some don't. Like AirDog 100/150 and FASS 100/150 both relays.From what I know of Taz he's planning on using that truck for towing trailers and "possibly" hotshot work. I start to wonder about 180k miles and the current health of the injectors. That alone could suck up the 3 grand in itself.There is no relay... Lift pump is direct wired to the ECM.When I first bought my RV I did brakes on the front axle. The brake pads cost about as much as what you paid for all 4 brake assemblies. I will do my next go around the way you did it..05 is marginal .1 is failed alternatorYou should look at my truck driver side looks wore out. The passenger side looks fresh. I wonder why? Half the truck got painted when I pulled a tree over on the truck years ago. So the passenger side is all fresh paint but the driver side is all well used.Shhhh... I actually did some cover up work on a small rust spot. My tail got a paint chip or two over the years now the exposed metal started to rust with this year heavy dose of salt on the highway. So I wire brushed the spot masked it off and shot it flat black. You can't tell my canopy window or its the tailgate... Oh yeah it only took me less than an hour to make a complete train wreck out of truck again it looks just like the above picture again.I'll never even qualify... Too many rock chips and scratches in the paint.Vulcan Big Line Kit Vulcan Big Line Kit was one of the best fuel system BOMB's I've done. I've down lots of research on what pump and fuel line kit to buy. The biggest thing was to find a fuel line kit that replaced all the factory banjos a plumbing. Be aware that Geno's Kit does not replace any of the banjo bolts or any of the plumbing forward of the factory lift pump. Also, Geno's kit is only 3/8" hose. Strange but true Vulcan Performance produces the Geno's kit for Geno's. So why do an incomplete job just get the Vulcan kit. It comes will all the fittings, hose, sealing washers, electrical, etc. Now as you see in the thumbnail above there is a piece of 1/2" Vulcan line compared to a piece of 6mm Dodge OEM line. There is no way to more enough fuel in a small fuel line like that. As for the electrical, you can tell Eric that you going to either install the factory styled Carter pump (Campaign Pump or OEM Pump) and he will send you the extension wire with the proper plugs. If you decide to install an FASS, generic Carter, Holley, Etc. He can send an extension wire with the factory plug on the one end and ring terminals on the other. Now as you seen before you tell Eric about the pump he will make sure you get the proper fitting for it too. There are 3/8" NPT and the metric threads. Since I'm still running a factory style LP pumps it a good way to show the change of fuel pressure with just the Vulcan Kit. This is with a new lift pump in both test cases. Running Mode Factory Lines Vulcan Performance Starter Bump 14.0 PSI 15.0 PSI Idling 13.0 PSI 14.0 PSI Cruise 65 MPH 10.0-11.0 PSI 12.5-13.0 PSI WOT 7.5 PSI 12.0 PSI
