    2000 Ford 7.3L Motovan build (225's build cont'd)

    Unfortunately it was the torque converter. I just had to find out that was the problem 1,000 miles into a road trip..... Right now, it's stored in a RV storage lot in Pittsburgh. We rented a Nissan NV van to finish the trip out.

    2000 Ford 7.3L Motovan build (225's build cont'd)

    About to do a 9-10 day trip, we're doing a few National Parks and Niagara Falls. There's a couple things I wanted to take care of. I can't tell if the torque converter is giving me issues or the fan clutch. Whenever I've been driving a while (interstate driving) and then I slow down, I hear...

    2000 Ford 7.3L Motovan build (225's build cont'd)

    I have a few small rust spots on the rear fender wells. There is no rust under the van or on any bolts anywhere on the entire van, just there. I've ordered new sheet metal for the rear fenders, rear quarters, and driver side rockers. I'll be replacing that next month. While I'm at it, I'm...

    Dually tires

    Does the inside tire have a long stem that reaches to the front of the outside tire? Look up dual tire pressure equalization systems. They're around $65 a side. I used to be in the semi truck tire business, these are very common and easy to use to inflate both tires at once.

    No matter what, keep those wheels / tires on.

    E4OD 2wd adapter to T-case

    I've been chatting with GScott in PM's. Glad you put all this out there. In the first pic, it shows the adapter is 5.5" long. Worst case if anyone know how to weld, all you would have to do is weld two 1/2" round plates to a piece of DOM tubing and brace it. Boom, adapter. I was confused...
