FB MP finds of the day.

it was just rushed to production and its more problematic than the old 6 speed....but that was a high bar to compare to

there is less data of the 10 speed behind the 7.3 and if/what was upgraded for the more power
 
I k know the early ones had issues in the F150 but I haven’t seen anything for the 7.3 having issues. I have seen the 7.3 having cam issues with high idle times. Apparently tied to the variable oil pump that only has an 8 psi pressure at idle. At least that’s what one guy I saw saying.
 
The welds on this axle. Geez.

A friend has his LJ for sale if anyone is looking. Not a jeep guy so don't know if the price is decent or not, but the seller is a good dude.

I wheeled with Jay at Harlan a time or two way back in the day.
 
I've known Jay for probably 15 years if not longer. He's good people.

Seems like a decent price to me. I want an LJ but not auto. Most LJ’s are 12k up. But usually claim no problems.

Agreed on the rust scaring people off. That is still the cheapest running driving LJ I've seen in a long time.

Wait - 40k for a 20 year old truck with nothing special about it? Was it even that much new?

I would be impressed, if it weren't for the holy grail 7.3 AND being a dually, AND being the best body Ford ever made 🤷🏿‍♂️

My reference is truly a vanilla smoothie ....like Dave said...

I too love an obs 7.3 ford, but you could be in a nice 6.7 at that price. It’s not the low maintenance of a 7.3, but a much more capable and nicer ride. I have a 2000 extended cab long bed manual 4x4 7.3. It has 340k and runs great. Fires up every time, but it’s a rough ride and pretty weak. I still won’t let it go though.
