    Allison 5sp: Headlight options

    Tried to search but no luck for my specific questions. Looking for some input for new light housings for my 02 lb7. By the time I got it back the originals were beyond saving. I bought ebay cheapies for now but cant get them to aim and the beam projection sucks. They also just fit like crap both...

    LB7: Possible Stuck PS Pressure Valve?

    Shop I used to work for ponyed up for the GM power steering test kit that dealerships used. No idea where they got it. Ebay or something if I had to guess Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    LB7: Possible Stuck PS Pressure Valve?

    I don't think you'll make a pressure tester cheaply. The fittings are a goofy size/style and most hydraulic hose builders dont have them. Have to cannibalize a couple lines most likely. At least one. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    LB7: Possible Stuck PS Pressure Valve?

    I once had a similar adventure. It ended up being bad steering gears. Replaced the o.e for a leak, then a few pumps, another gear, more pumps and finally got the pressure test kit. I think neutral no load pressure w/ engine idling is supposed to be something like 50-75 psi. With those junk gears...

    LML 9th Injector

    Is the disconnect tool you're using made of plastic or metal? I've never had success with the plastic one. I use a metal snap-on or blue-point I dont remember. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Recommendations on zero turn mowers wanted

    I just picked this up last weekend. 42" hustler with a kawi that will be cutting about an 3/4 of an acre at home and 3/4 at the shop. Wanted to stick with 42" because I have citrus trees at home close together and needed to be able to sneak between trucks at the shop. Right at $3k out the door...

    Allison 5sp: Lb7/Zf6 came home

    Had to drag the trailer in for one of my guys to borrow. Pulled it nicely but obviously too heavy of a trailer to use with 3" drop shackles. But her working days are done. That's the 250s job now. Also, does anyone know if the rubber bushings that the torsion bar crossmember mounts to are...

    Allison 5sp: Lb7/Zf6 came home

    Well got a set of tires on it and the clutch in and air dog installed. Put 50 or 60 miles on it. Runs like a top but I've got the haze in a major way. It will either get a set of sac injectors from LDS or stock bosch ones from my local bosch rebuilder. Also need to ditch the home made helper...

    Switched to the dark side

    Yes it does. If I towed more I would have some. It is a heavy trailer. Almost 7k empty. I had no choice with the tractors. The front one was broken and the rear one pushed it up. Had to take them both at once because the running one had to unload the broken one. I just got lazy with the truck...

    Switched to the dark side

    Little update with mine too. I got it with 130k stock 2015 in 2017. It now has 200k miles and lives on the 225hp kill tune pretty much the whole 70k miles I put on it. Even when its hooked to stupid shit like this because it's a Ford and takes 10 minutes to change tunes if you're not SOTF and...

    Allison 5sp: Lb7/Zf6 came home

    Made some progress on it today. Clutch and tranny installed. New air dog hooked back up and fuel tank is all cleaned out. Just need to bleed the clutch. What a nightmare that is on the GM zf6 trucks. I'm certain I'll be doing injectors in this thing. I sold it with 280k miles. I was told...

    PPEI Next On The Chopping Block???

    I do a lot of business with alligator. There are other alternatives but I think I'm done buying exhausts and other related hard parts. If this many suppliers are stopping that makes me nervous. I've flipped my 15 ford back and forth. I like the sound and fuel mileage of the low restriction way...

    Allison 5sp: Lb7/Zf6 came home

    Got the trans pulled out. I'd say the clutch was bad. Ripped out every spring in it and wore the friction down to nothing. Also at some point the lift pump got hit hard and bypassed but at least it was all there and i sent in my warranty card way back when. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

    Allison 5sp: Lb7/Zf6 came home

    Hey guys. Not sure if anyone will remember me or not. I have been gone for a while. Life has been crazy like most. Had a baby girl last April and then quit my job. I wanted to make a go at owning my own business. I started out as a mobile repair service working out of the back of my F250 with...

    Allison 5sp: Help !

    It was a joke if you couldn't tell by the smiley faces and ww2 referance. I owe my career and business to the Duramax and this forum I stumbled upon in 2010 after melting down my lb7. I looked for a 15+ Duramax last year when I was in the market. Around here you pretty much can't touch one...
