    Steering box replacement

    Hey man, just getting back to you, yeah it’s pretty much the same on my first gen. I got the Pittman puller from O’Reilly’s, I’ll pull the arm after getting the box off the truck. Good idea. My trouble now is I can’t get the bolts holding the steering box reinforcement plate to budge...

    Steering box replacement

    Thanks BigPapa, I tried a socket but there isn’t enough room to get a ratchet on it. Do they make extra shallow sockets?

    Broken afc lever

    We’ll, I did it. Third time taking the pump top off and I broke the afc lever reinstalling it. I thought I had paid enough attention while putting it back on. Had fuel screw backed out and reinstalled top by sliding it in from the right. Don’t know what happened but I’m completely bummed...

    Here’s my dilemma: I replaced my governor spring, fuel pin, and afc slide pin and o-rings. After putting the pump back together I struggled to get the throttle indexed. After about the eighth time adjusting the throttle index I noticed that the throttle arm stopped returning to the idle...

    VE Pump slide pin o-ring

    I searched the forum and didn’t find anything on this so I’m going to create a mew post. This is for changing the slide pin o-ring on the ve pump on our first gen 12v 5.9’s. This links to youtube ‘themadmailler’, if you search his videos you’ll find a great concise video of how to get to the...

    Slide pin ve pump

    Thanks, that’s the YouTube video that gave me the confidence to attempt this. Great, concise video except for the very last part where the o-ring is. I called Eric at Hungry Diesel and he walked me through the last bit of changing the o-ring.

    Slide pin ve pump

    Okay, here’s where I’m at: (I don’t know if I’m using the right terms for everything but hopefully my descriptions will help). New fuel pin and governor spring are in. I knocked out the two ball bearings and slid the afc lever pin out of the way, removed the afc lever, Removed the cover nut...

    Front shock hardware

    Yeah I meant the bolts, nuts, washers. Should I get a certain grade of bolt? I tried to remove the old ones and can’t get them to budge.

    Front shock hardware

    Hey all, I’m wanting to replace my front shocks with Bilstein 4600’s. I have the shocks but I also want to replace the lower hardware but can’t find anyone that has them or even lists them as an available part. Any thoughts on how to proceed?

    Need work, don’t know what to do

    Hey all, I’ve had my ‘93 12 valve for close to ten years now and I completely love this truck. However, it’s at the point now, 344,765 miles, that all the little things are failing. My mechanic is a great guy, completely trustworthy, thinks I should sell it because in his words ‘it’s going to...
