My advice is leave it at the dealer. I had a 1988 F-350 4x4 for 20 years. It wasn't spectacular by any means. Everybody that saw it thought it was but it wasn't. That 460 engine is not that ballsy at all. Pretty lethargic actually. Mine had the 5 speed and that thing was terrible too. Always had a really loud gear lashy sound in it if you lugged it at all. Body rusted out and I redid it two times and between the ball less engine and trans and the rust and repairs I'd had enough of it. Sent it down the road. Had it out on the highway for 1 hour and sold it to the first guy that looked at it. He was really happy with it. I talked to him a couple months later at some snowmobile races and it was still going ok. I replaced it with a 2000 Dodge quad cab 4x4 with auto trans and 360 and I've been much happier. Better interior, better engine, better having the auto trans and the drivetrain on the Dodge is built like a train. Has already done tons of work for me with far less problems than the ford. Funny thing was the Dodge was a better truck with 170,000 miles on it than the Ford was with 50,000 on it. Not a scientific comparison, just my experience with the two different trucks.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
