96 powerstroke.. waterbubble in fuel filter housing wore a hole in alum housing.. which in turn killed IPR. between IPR and housing that's over $500 in parts alone.. a tow, a possible hazmat fee from the city (patiently hoping I don't get something) and the IPR installation post first visit..
Weird weird situation.. Dunno what shop fees are but they ain't very cheap..
I had very similar problems with my 97. I actually had pump problems after all that and had to replace it. That truck got towed around to various dealerships, since no-one could pin point the problem. Has to be something with the fuel rail on those models. Hands down that 97 was still better than my 2003 6.0 powerstroke. Sorry for the hijack..

I have a question for the guys that have already been. i want to take the 60 but its going to be fairly stock. i should have ome lift and 33s on it by then but the difs will be open. so my question is How will it fair on the trails there? I dont want to have to winch it all over or tear up the rockers.
I have a 60 with 33's and open diff's as do two other 60's in my group. Two of us had rock sliders but one didnt. We ran many trails there without the need to winch. You may find a spot you need help with but there will be many goups you can hook up with and will have help if you need it. There are even a few stock rigs that run the trails. You will be amazed at how well you will do.
p.s. All our 60 are also white so youll fit in nicely.
I will be there...hopefully Thursday afternoon. I may leave late Saturday? Are we still doing the raffle on Friday? That is best for me. Will may come along...he is 6 and he can't quite make up his mind.
See you there.

PS I am happy to help with whatever needs done. What should I bring?
I have 7 vehicle registrations mailed to Rob, one of which was a freebie. This does not include the ones Art says he was buying as I have not received anything from him, unless it is sitting at Rob's.
Yes, it went throught. I corrected my post I thought. Sorry about the confusion. the freebie from TCCC has not registered. We have 26 vehicles and less than 50 people at this time, including the Trail Team. Peggy
How many do we need for this event to be a go?? When and how will we be notified that it is a go? I signed up and have been buying supplies for the truck...I'm ready.
I probably won't show until Friday morning and see what this is like. I'm a newbie.
From what I understand, it is a go already. We still need to keep working on more entries. I will look forward to seeing you on Friday. The majority of folks from Springfield will be going on Thursday so if you need backdoor direction just give me a call. Gary has my number.
