I had a 86 F-250 6.9 powered truck that needed a new motor. I recovered an engine, transmission, Banks turbo, DNE overdrive from a rusted hulk. It was going to be my project! Well I no longer have the truck and I need to get rid of all this stuff. Before I lost the truck, I took the heads off and the engine looked good. I have no idea if the stuff has any value. I am not sure if should put it on ebay or list it here and if do list it, what it is worth. I am looking for advise. Thanks. john.

What would you like to see for the overdrive? Is it for a 2wd or 4x4 truck?

I shudder to think what it may be. Buddy 'lost' his '88 F150.... he put it up for calateral for a loan- one of THOSE places. What's bad is, later AFTER the truck was taken (so the fees would go up if we would have went to go get it), I find out it was for only $600-700!!!! He had the truck since he was 16 (which was the early/mid 1990's)......

I'd definitely be interested in the turbo setup as long as it was complete!!!! Figure out how much you are wanting for your parts and there will be quite a few of us that will buy it up!!!!
1) the parts are in Carson California.
2) I have decided to put the whole shebang on Ebay and if it doesn't sell, I will donate the stuff to a local school.
3) I walked away from the truck because I couldn't get it titled (short version). Long version for those who are bored: I bought the truck in Southern California as I was moving to AL. When I got to AL, they said the salvage title info I had was not legal unless I went through CA first. CA said that they would be happy to give me a title for $1500.00 (owed fees from the previous owner). I then bought a rusted turbo truck (the one I have the engine out of) so I could take the engine and title from the hulk and move it to the rust free CA truck with a tired engine. Just then AL said there was a way to fix the title so I harvested the parts and sent the rusted hulk to the junk yard. Then AL changed their mind. By then I was ready to move again to WA and threw my hands in the air. So for now, diesels are a memory.
Thanks to everyones comments and ideas.
