    If you were to build a 2023 lbz

    It’s been paid for since I got it. That’s why I’m thinking of dumping some Money into it and keeping it. I figure make it decent again and I’ll be “happy” I’ve put about 100k on it since I got it. It’s been literally across the country. I don’t need a diesel, don’t even really want one. But...

    If you were to build a 2023 lbz

    Yep tundra. Huge cab, decent interior. Not a Ford and the 5.7.. I don’t care about fuel economy and have 2 other Toyota’s. I’ve currently got bilstiens and been happy, just wanting a little less harsh ride.

    If you were to build a 2023 lbz

    So I’m back and forth on trucks. I despise new diesels and if I’m going to buy a newer truck it’ll be gas. More than likely a 2020 tundra Trd pro crew max. However I can’t justify spending 50k on a truck. I own a 2006 crew short loaded leather lbz with the following mods - built trans and...

    Lbz zf6 clutch

    Meh. I’m not surprised really, it’s the way of the world now. Also not overly stressed about it. I’m kinda over all the diesel performance stuff anymore.

    Lbz zf6 clutch

    I called south bend, they are saying to put the competition dual disc in it and deal with the poo drive ability. Or Turn it down. No desire to build a triple Disc for his application

    Lbz zf6 clutch

    Yeah we see that south end triple as well. Just really not a completion truck. Just a hot street truck. I told him to put another Southbend dual disc in it and turn it down ??‍♂️

    Lbz zf6 clutch

    Does anyone have a have a lead on a great clutch for a lbz zf6 truck? Truck makes 750 plus at tires. South bend dual disc ceramic / organic made it about 15k before it won’t hold anymore. Valair used to do a street triple. Now they won’t even talk about a Lbz clutch. Any options?

    What is the number 1 thing you have done to make your truck tow better?

    60 gallon transfer tank. Hands down best mod on a crew short truck. 200 mile range is for the ev crowd.

    Ways to do an oil system flush

    Not Kidding an lb7 that has made oil will be the cleanest oil you’ve ever changed and the cleanest diesel you’ve seen inside.

    Ways to do an oil system flush

    Put a quart or 2 of diesel in It and drive it around the block a few times. That’s what I’ve done on countless engines and it’s never killed one. Started that on tractors years and years ago. Shit LB7s do it all the time.

    May '23 Chat -- May-be we'll come up with a name later, or May-be not

    As I prep to sell the lbz I went and got my 6.5 from the farm while I still have a heavy tow rig. Girlfriend thinks I should keep the lbz. I just don’t like it sitting around and rarely Use it. I live 2 miles from work and have other rigs to drive. This is the biggest load it’s had on it in a...
