Well guys, I just wanted to post the after after action report on the overhaul.... I didnt think we would have a hard time finding a solenoid, but in our travels we noticed 3 different starter set ups... the first truck didnt have a solenoid anywhere on the block, so we went to another...

Well to kinda wrap things up, We got to the garage and got the fluids in the old girl and said a quick prayer... I jumped in, hit the start button..... and Nothing !!! aua we did some research and found the starter solenoid lug was broke. Figure someone must have stepped on it while...

I thought id share my thanksgiving experience, figured it was time to do my ldt engine overhaul. I purchased a complete set of 5 ton lds pistons a few months back in prep for this event. The overhaul was slow,and there were items that made the task interesting, but it wasnt as bad as i...

Great advice... take some time and look at the rear main seal on the engine, the clutch components and the tranny seal, both seals can slowly leak and cause a mess as well as pains later on. If it looks like theres wear in the clutch, or leaks in the seals, its best to fix'em now while you...
