    Hello Everyone, I recently purchased a F-550 to use as a horse hauler in the Rockies. She definitely needs some work but I have 12 months to do as much of an overhaul as I can. 1. I have the cab gutted and some serious rust removal to do inside the cab. It doesn't look like much has rusted...
  2. 6.4L Power Stroke Engine and Drivetrain
    I'm working on a 2008 6.4l f550. Was recently in a crash, pickup rear ended another vehicle so it had damage to the front end. (Replaced transmission cooler lines, Intercooler, and fuel cooler) It ran for alittle over a week and then was parked in a driveway for a week. While sitting it leaked...
  3. 2017 & Up General Questions
    Ok so I’m looking into buying a 20,300lb track hoe (excavator) and normally will have a 2,500ish pound attachment. Making it 22,800. The new trailer will weight about 8,000ish I believe. Will my 17 F350 with 4.10s be enough or will I have to get a 450? I’ve seen a few on YouTube towing the same...

    So my dad has a 2008 F550 6.4. When I go from a stop or low speeds to high speeds, at around 40mph the truck starts to hesitate.

    Hello all, I’ve got a 2001 F550 7.3 with a ZF manual transmission. I’m having issues with intermittent no throttle response. The issue happens when coming off a downgrade while the throttle isn’t being pressed. Then when trying to accelerate the pedal does nothing, no check engine light...
  7. 6.4L Power Stroke Engine and Drivetrain
    Hey All, first post here so apologizes for any lack of decorum. Picked up a really sweet ride, an 30ft extreme low floor vehicle made by the now defunct Dallas Smith Corp. Its full time FWD, with swing arm rear suspension, on full air ride that drops the frame within 4" of groundlevel making it...
