I know you must remove the steering box because there is not enough clearance to get the pitman arm off. You might be able to just remove the steering box bolts and get enough room to wiggle it off. Of course you need a puller to get the arm loose first. I think that is where the clearance...

I think it would be wise to check fuel pressure during driving just to eliminate a fuel delivery issue. Replace and move the PMD in any case.

I am by no means an expert on inter-coolers, but I would think that logic dictates that would cause a lack of efficiency.

They changed the design. Your rotor comes off just like a half ton. Remove wheel, remove caliper, remove rotor. Lucky you.

This is correct. You need to remove the 4 bolts on the inside of the steering knuckle holding the on hub/bearing assembly. Then take the rotor and hub/bearing off as a unit. Disassemble and reassemble the units on the bench. As mentioned, thread the 4 bolts into the assembly on the bench with...

Stanadyne part # is 29244 for screen.

Cover the Turbo shield with a bath towel for a few seconds and see if that cancels the noise. If it does, that is what John is talking about. If it is the "chink chink" noise I hear that is what it is. Kinda common with these trucks....

I had cracks between the seats when I did my head gaskets July '08. 10,000 miles later -no issues. Just FYI--

I don't think that the vacuum pump on these was designed for a brake booster. The booster has a large diaphragm. I think the pump should pull about 20". I would have tested it on the engine though.

I would say the rule of thumb is to replace them as a set. Pully and balancer.

I had 2 PMD failures 2 years apart. Both of them happened at the same time of day in the same place when I was leaving work. First failure was stock location and the second was SS Diesel location (intake).

This is like spending someone else's money.

Coolant crossover gaskets are prone to leaks. Usually evaporates before reaching the ground. Look closely at that area. Pressure test is helpful also.

Usually it would be caused by a small leak before the LP. You may not notice any fuel leak, but air will be drawn in.

In this neck of the woods it's 23 years.

Non Delco stats tend to have wide temperature swings.
