Haha , yeah I was surprised to find that on a diesel site - It's got color pictures even
The freakin things protected - they don't want anyone to copy the procedure. I hit print and this PC did the bleep,bleep,bleep - then the illegal action deal, what a drag . I had to fire up the MAC ,copy as a PDF, then print it
Why do they do that? They think your going to sell it and make a few mill? To late it's already published - freakin ridiculous...

 

if the converter is slipping than its doing its job. but the 1st gear will still be engaged. if first gear is not engaging then yeh i would look at the forward clutches. or make sure your getting enough pressure from the pump. these trannys are kknown for having the front pumps go out in them

 

lol hey brew your gonna like this...

ok so my arm feels better, enough that i can wrench safely...
so i get a hair up the a$s and decide to tear the block down the rest of the way since i decided to replace everything with forged parts...

4 rod to crank bearings were completely shot, i mean big chunks missing and inside the crank. every bearing had score marks...
main bearings, one was completely ruined like the rod bearings... the rest showed plenty of wear.

funny part is i bought this motor, the seller said "it ticks a little but not bad, still runs good!" so i thought it was something like a bad lash adjuster or something simple... that wasnt a ticking sound he heard that was a few f-n rods startin to knock... moron...

oh yeah, now i see why you cant mix up the oem rod caps... WOW... what happen to the old way of manufacturing rods?

 

Holey hell , did you turn it over by hand at some point ?- seams like you woulduh heard some kind of song and dance goin on inside of there - Mannn , that's BAD !!! Whatuh pinhead .

You'll like this , I wanted the Trans to shift a little bit firmer so I went to the next size up on the calibration plate and that freakin trans SLAMMS into second now Crapp!! That's to firm - I'm making another plate

This is fun.

 

lol i didnt want mine trying to slam with 35" meats, so i set mine up on the easier side and im happy with it.

yeah man that thing was hard as hell to turn over by hand, that was my first sign of wtf?

so im gonna write the guy and tell him hey, i found out why it was makin noise...

that sucks you have to make another plate tho, dont sound fun.


hmm i wonder if this 5.4 was a flood victim... lol

 

did this thread finally die?

 

yea cause the 5.4 has proven to be better

 

actually there have been more cases documented and proven for the 4.6 if you had been here reading you would have seen that

 

HI!... Us with 5.4's don't need to prove were faster than the 4.6's. Looking in our rear view mirrors proves that everyday! BWAAAAAAAAAA!

 

What cases documented and proven? The ONLY thing proven is you and your boyfriend Paul ( slowerf150) constantly piping off about how you think your 4.6's are superior. That of course when both of your mouths are free.

You know what Pat and Paul ( now look, that even has a cute little ring to it),

you guys win! There's no point in arguing about it anymore. I surrender!

Here ya go.

 

HAHA LOL I appreciate any ford product.

 

the funny thing is they are the only ones with a 4.6 saying its so great.

 

Yeah, those two "sweethearts" living in their own little 4.6 fantasy world.

 

at breaking

 

theres about 3 or 4 of us.. but it seems like thats all it takes since is like the spartains vs the Persians.. few against many.. and we dominate
