So things are moving slowly but moving at least. New cheap tires are on. Waiting for driveline to be finished then maybe I can get out in a week or two. Been trying to find someone (female) who wants to go camping but seems very hard to find these days. Seems like not a whole lot going on in...

Finally getting new shoes for the old girl. I'll post pics when they are on next week. Now I found out I need a new driveling and Ujoints. Hope everyone is getting out.

Looking good.

So, been doing some work on the old girl. Got the radiator, injection pump and injector return line kit all installed. Also got new tail light and front turn light housing installed. Still need to wire up the fans, install the new brake booster and master. I had a wire come out of place and...

Amazing looking truck.

Truck is slowly coming together. Still needs work and tires. Getting antsy.

Welcome.

Welcome from Eugene. Always nice to see another one from Oregon.

I have watched every one of his video. Great guy. Can't wait to get a chance to meet him.

Oh I already have plans. I have let my boss know I have got to get some time off soon and take off for some weekend exploring. I just have to stick close to home so if I brake my boss doesn't have to go to Bend to get me. lol Just have some things to finish up and find some money for tires.

It's all about the money. I had not planned on doing overland like this when I had made all the decisions on the truck. My funding is beyond limited. With all this going on my boss can not afford to really pay me. So they are helping out with my truck when they can. I actually rent a room from...

See I have heard both things. That the 6.9 is better and that the 7.3 is better. I have had both and really don't see much of a difference. It's about $1,500.00 for a rebuild for my 6.9. I have not completely made up my mind on which way to go. Mine also has the 3speed auto, I think its a 3...

6.9 turbo diesel. Lots of blow by right now. Just put a new Injector Pump and Radiator with electric fans. Will be putting in new Brake Booster and Master here this week.

My truck has a very tired motor. My trips will only be a short ways off the highways. Hopefully by next summer she could have a rebuilt motor. I am starting from scratch. I don't even have a sleeping bag or cook stove yet.

Looks good. Body style newer than mine. Can I ask what the pipe is for?

I only paid $250.00. It has issues but ran. The motor needs to be rebuilt before I get to go on any really long trips. That could take a while to get the money up for it. I want to do it myself. Well maybe with a little help as I am not a mechanic. Trying to figure out what to do with the paint...

Mine is a work in progress. Just getting the Alternator, Vacuum Pump, Radiator and Fans in. Already replaced Injector Pump and Glow Plugs. Also need to do the Brake Booster and Master. Then have to find some tires. Super low budget. 1986 F250 Diesel.

Thank you. The come along was my son attempting to move it after it broke down. Now it has had a new Injector Pump, Radiator, New Electric Fans, Brake Booster and Master. There are a few smaller things that I am doing. Money is tight like for most people. Tires is my next challenge. Not sure...
