I think this guy's done nothing but work on diesel engines his entire life. I love it when it goes to explain something extra that's not part of the videos purpose and then he just stops and says "whatever". This is someone I would definitely trust with my 6.4 and I'm being serious.
Just got a call from the dealership, they wanted a million dollars for head gasket replacement. I freaked out and got on YT and started watching your videos, and I feel a LOT better now. This looks really difficult...but I think I can pull it off with these videos. Thank you!
Disconnect rad hose on the passenger side instead, it works just as well lifting and avoids the mess, also on the auto shift linkage the part you took off is actually the adjuster and you can just pry that unit off rather than disassembling... Ebrake cable disconnect I used to pry the two vice grips like you did until a friend showed me how to stick a block in there and use an air chisel to vibrate it out....may have a couple other suggestions but can't remember them now.... Fantastic content!!!!
Yes just did it by following your video. Was easy, took 4-5 hours at home with hand tools. Called a picker truck to lift it off. Swapped engine and now waiting to replace cab. Need to delete egr first and replace shocks. Easy to work on with cab off. Way to go Ford.
As someone who does this for a living I was curious to see the video. It's a great video. I don't really have anything to add. If anyone has electrical trouble after putting it back together, those three connectors on the driver side are a likely culprit, unplug and replug them... also if you miss a cable going back on a battery terminal. Those are the big two things to check on electrical issues afterwards. Those bushing bolts can be the devil. I've had to burn a couple out.
@@darkirondiesel I forgot one on the passenger side my very first time and it went in to anti-theft mode. We have The Ford IDS system though. Our fleet had about 20 of these 6.4s now we're down to about 4. Not gonna lie, ready to see them go.
Thanks for the video. 30 years in trade but I never pulled a cab on of these. Today is the day, we have a bunch of these older 6.4 in our fleet so I am sure it won't be my last. Great video.
Thanks my good man. Great video. I have watched this twice now. My 08. 6.4 is not showing any signs of requiring this type of work yet. However to days, the date is July 04, 2023. The odometer is 215000 km Canada ha 😊 something like 135000 miles deleted 20000 miles back. excellent maintenance records. Just completed a major trans restoration, and a complete break re & re. This is a forever truck. I will keep redoing whatever it needs. I love this truck that much. It's just a matter of who outlasts the other me or the truck 👍😂🤣😅😉😊👌
Would like to start off by thanking you for the video! This made this job so much easier in pulling the cab. I got a 2010 F250 6.4L that the bed plate is leaking on. So had to learn how to pull the cab. Again, I thank you very much for the detailed video. It saved me countless hours of messing around.
Excellent informative video! From my experience with the cab mount bolts, I realized that if you heat the bolts first, it loosens the factory lock tite and they come out a little easier without breaking the nut lose on the other side. Great video! 👍
I’m swapping f350 cab, damaged in roll over, with a salvaged f250 cab. Thank you for your video, it was encouraging. Especially “it’s easier than you think “ title. Ha-ha...
I sure hope you are getting paid for this video. You just got me out of a pinch. The vacuum line going to the bottom of the battery box (vacuum canister), I don’t remember where the line went. Your video pointed it out and I’m very grateful! Great video with no bs or filler.
Dude thats so easy to lift you have now given me courage to use my master craft forklift to lift my 4 door off and do it's 6.4 head gasket thanks a ton for the video's definitely subscribed 🤘
P.S. I have helped a few people now since I first saw this video. But do not use a 1/2 inch or any impact driver it will destroy the little bodycage around the cab mount nut ford put locktight on the bolt threads. Just have to bight the big one on this get the braker bar and brake the bolt free. I have a long ratcheting braker but don't use that impact driver. Once the cab was off we cleaned up the area brassed the nuts in place primed and seald the area put some anti seize on threads because if you ever have to take the cab off again you will thank your self. I hear cab mounts don't last but I am looking in to O-ringed heads valve guides seats and springs rockers and a set of oil sprayer valve covers if I have to take the cab off and do gaskets. Good luck on your 6.4 oh ya modified turbo oilcoler. Stoock oil cooler has a tendency to plug up
I’m currently doing a Cummins swap in a 2010. Debating on using our crane truck to yank the cab and set it on the flat bed after seeing this! lol. Talk about tons of room!!
Thanks for making this detailed series. Family friend of ours had an EGR go bad in his and I believe something else in the bottom end. I remember him telling me about this cab deal, and I always wanted to see it done. Definitely subscribed.
I don't believe 134a is particularly harmful to the atmosphere, at least relatively. The main reason venting is illegal is due to the wording of the regulations. They banned venting the bad ones and "any replacements" for the bad ones, regardless of the hazards or lack thereof. Not saying to vent it, just an FYI.
I thank you for heads up about this coolant splash. Here is my solution...using wide flat sqrudriver gently separate those tubes until coolant starts to dripping. Then pull I’d down gently to increase a gap. Thank for your warning not one drop got on the ground.
Haave you seen the valve covers that have oil sprayers in them for the rockers, great idea and they look cool too. If you got a line on a supplier that would be great.
Soaked in coolant and missed the bucket glad I'm not the only one who does that every time lmao. You must be gifted with a very special type of patience. I'd be loosing my mind at the cab mounts not cooperating I have to replace my cab mounts on my 05 chevy 2500 and they look about 10 times nastier than the ones on this truck do lol.
Thanks Man, you cover all the questions I had in my head about pulling the cab. Steering, brakes and a/c. The last guy who worked on my truck, never hooked a bunch of stuff back up. And never put my Freon back in. You also covered bunch of stuff I wasn't think about like strap the cab to the hoist. Awesome video. I've done thermostats rad hoses, new degas bottle and power steering pump/ hydro boost. I think I will vacuum out the power steering reservoir. When get wet again splitting the lower rad hose I won't feel so bad.
I pulled it did the HPFP and 8 injectors... put it back together apparently bent the 1 return oil lines, pulled it again, much faster the second time. Fixed it put it back together knowing the bearings were a little out of spec on the High pressure... truck was sounding awesome almost had the air out of the fuel. Blew the turbo, if I wasn't on a budget I wouldn't have chanced it, I would have just did the turbo too. Soon as in get my taxes paid this year. Turbo will be the next big purchase.
Thanks seen this video a few times it is the best sofar great job thanks haven't needed it yet. The date now is Nov. 12 2024. My 08 Superduty truck has like 140K miles on it deleted as soon as the warranty was off. Problems have been rear main seal under warranty. Front plate. My fault didn't deal with a crack in the upper rad. Looks like the rear main is leaking and I just had the Trans. redone and had a little up grade. Looks like cluch matierial in the oil and breakes and tires. Now its got a coolant mystery
Great video! Once we build our shop I just wanna take my cab off and do all kinds of stuff under the hood, great in-depth video on how to do it! Probably my favorite video
LOL! 5 gallon bucket fit's near perfect right under that middle rad hose (only took me 12 tries to figure that out!) Screwdriver in one hand to slowly pry it apart, the other hand on the top of the split, holding the two pieces from coming apart too fast and guiding the flow into the bucket. 1 or two streams down your arm. Great video. Looks like I'll need a crane truck to do it as well.
I found pulling the harnes off the above the back of the engine on the fire wall with out braking the cheep little leavers the most difficult. I start playing with them all most right away spray them down wiggle them but don't pry on them they will come just be patient. When putting your electric conectors back put a little of that dielectric grease on them might help for the next time its like putting high heat antiseiz on stuberin nuts and bolts. But be causious
Man you're a godsend. I have to replace my front seal, front and rear crank, rear main and trans pan gaskets. Costs too much to have a shop do it. My buddy has a lift and I'm gonna try my hand at pulling this beast apart.
Good video. Didn't read all the comments but the transmission cable connection just pops off with a cat's paw. No need to disassemble the cable or mess with the adjustment
Some how I'm losing coolent but I'm left with a vacuum. When I release the cap I get air bubbles from the small return line to the degas tank. It holds a vacuum for a day or two. I have replaced the cap. There is no puddling anywhere under the truck. It is like the equivlient to losing a beer can of coolant every couple of days. No white smoke nothing on the oil cap or dipstick its deleted I can't find coolant any where. Further more Ford coolant is almost clear I have replaced all the orings on the upper and lower radiator hoses still has the same symptoms 🤔🙄 its driving me crazy. PS temp is betwen 86 and 96. If im in bumper to bumper stop and go trafic it like 185/186 if I'm moving its 195/196 I thought it might be an air lock but I can't seem to get it to make a difference. 🤬
I have a friend who bought a 6.4 just after they were released…blew a head gasket 2 months after he bought it…previous owner had a high hp tune and stock parts. Got totaled 2 months after he replaced everything and bulletproof’d it.
Nice tutorial! It is the wiring, I am most concerned with when lifting the cab-off and not missing anything.You have to think in reverse of pulling and engine. I do have to say, I have done the rad 3 times (6.4 coolant rad leaks) and have only stayed dry once.
Dude!, you F****** literally save my ass! I Google it (lift cab off the frame), and your video came up first!!👍 Thank God! You talk about every single little thing, about lifting the cab off the chassis!!!👍👍✌️🍺
I have a 2008 f250 power stroke 6.4. I recently had oil coming out of the coolant tank and it overheated but it was random and happened shortly after i had just fired it up. I’d love to chat and see if you think it’s a head gasket for sure or possibly oil cooler or egr cooler. Thanks for your time and i appreciate your videos they are very helpful
Great video have a question maybe you can answer or some of your subscribers can need to replace oil pan on my 2009 F350 super duty is there away to do that with out jacking engine up like all the videos i see out there
now I see why they charge me so much to do the head gasket job plus they always break something charge me more The two garages I used both of them I feel screwed me over. thank Your video I will try it myself next time
They could, but after pulling about 30 cabs I’ve found it best to just impact them out. I’ve never had one break, but I have had lots seize up. I find if you just zip them out with an impact it lowers the risk of having one seize up.
It becomes a systemic thing when you work on these trucks kind of regularly.... You think in terms of different systems and categories and those smaller groups help to break down the whole job so it's not so overwhelming... Same deal with troubleshooting, systems and subsystems work as categorization and then the smaller groups avoid the clutter.... People who hear about this way to work on these criticize it, but in reality a guy that is versed in cab pulls can do many jobs on these trucks faster than the other brands that don't encourage cab pulls for general repairs.... The super duty, has continued to improve the engineering with cab pulls intended as part of repair.,.. right or wrong it was how it was designed to be repaired
@@UpstateWoodchuck I see both sides of the deal. N one hand it’s a chore to do extra work, but on the other hand, there isn’t a lot to it per say, and could from the looks of it l do an out frame in the same time as an in frame.
Take pictures lots of pictures and maybe a few short videos with some narrative. Good luck. It really isn't that hard. The hard part is setting up and preparin. So just get everything you want done and ordered so it's up. Off and on ready to go no weighting for parts etc.. Then it's crack that first nut or bolt.
High pressure turbo went out and bedplate leak 🙃 waiting for my brother to get his pull barn built so we can attempt a fix, unless I decide to just pay the dealer lol
I have a 08' 350 crew short bed dually with the v10.. I need to get the passenger side valve cover off and the book says to unblolt the engine mounts on the passenger side and loosen the engine mounts on the driver side, have to disconnect exhaust at the cats... The v10 is tighter than the 5.4 but more room than that 6.4 for sure.. Seems like, if I unbolted the cab on the passenger side and jacked up a couple inches and pulled it over about an inch.. I wouldn't really need to disconnect anything and would get enough to squeeze that valve cover off?? Do you have thoughts on that.. Do you think it would damage anything? Most everting connecting has a couple inches or more of slack or flex.. Thanks for sharing..
I got the 2008 f250 64 powerstroke I need exhaust manifold bolt snapped how much you charge and where do you live much appreciated thank you by the way I did like and subscribe
thanks for the video I watched a guy pull the engine without removing the cab I will remove the cab. stupid engineering. but thank you for saving me some gray hair trying to get my engine out washout pulling the cab first. should have watched your video first.. thank you
Yikes! So much work just to start working on the motor... A good buddy, now my brother-in-law, and I skipped school and went to the 'big city'. On the way back blew the motor. Walked a few miles to call his dad who came and towed us back to the farm. He told us to pull the motor from that truck and another and swap them... Had the motor out before supper and the second one out and in before bed. Drove it to school the next morning with the second motor!

Just make sure you spread the weight out on the slings as much as you can or it can dent the door, the wider the slings the better

Stop saying "rad cap"! You sound like a Gen Z person. It's a Radiator Cap.

Oh I have to use my 40 ton excavator to lift with; I have nothing else strong enough. That real make me nervous, it is not a very delicate machine.
We have different definitions of “easy”
Yea I think we do I’m just trying to do turbos 😭
Great video! You covered everything quickly. Good filming and good job explaining it. Thanks for making it. Helped me remove my 2008 F550.

It is definitely a high 5. You did a great job . I will pay your tikets and come to Mexico and change my turbo on my truck
Thank you so much for making the job a piece of cake
Experience. Trabajo. Amigo. Nice video
I watched this video on the first 6.4 cab I pulled and then used it again on the second just now! Super informative video. Are you in Warman SK?
I have a 2008 f250 power stroke 6.4. I recently had oil coming out of the coolant tank and it overheated but it was random and happened shortly after i had just fired it up. I’d love to chat and see if you think it’s a head gasket for sure or possibly oil cooler or egr cooler. Thanks for your time and i appreciate your videos they are very helpful
how much does the cab weigh. who are you picking points in the front. did you damage anything going through the windows.
Nice vid, very informative. We appreciate your video
About half way through this video , you earned you're way to more money than you charged ! But you have good info about other stuff !!!
Great job and video man 👍💪 I’m putting a new cab on my 04 f450 6.0 dump
Fantastic video, have to do a hpfp harness and this took the guess work out if it. And I got covered with coolant.😅
😂
Very good very detailed video I appreciate your humble attitude
Thank you
You're welcome
A back road Macgyver ,A great big thanks .What a great video..Thanks...Thanks...Thanks.
Great video have a question maybe you can answer or some of your subscribers can need to replace oil pan on my 2009 F350 super duty is there away to do that with out jacking engine up like all the videos i see out there
now I see why they charge me so much to do the head gasket job
plus they always break something charge me more The two garages I used both of them I feel screwed me over. thank Your video I will try it myself next time
I wouldn't suggest using an impact on the cab bolts because the impact can very well cause the nuts to break off
They could, but after pulling about 30 cabs I’ve found it best to just impact them out. I’ve never had one break, but I have had lots seize up. I find if you just zip them out with an impact it lowers the risk of having one seize up.
If you dont have a/c machine you can use a bucket full of water and put the hose inside so the freeon stays in the water
Im from California and I need the same work on my f250 ,how much is about , just spenses pls
Great job
I’m getting ready to pull mine
Thanks buddy good luck!
How the F do you remember what to reconnect???? Much respect after watching this
It becomes a systemic thing when you work on these trucks kind of regularly.... You think in terms of different systems and categories and those smaller groups help to break down the whole job so it's not so overwhelming... Same deal with troubleshooting, systems and subsystems work as categorization and then the smaller groups avoid the clutter.... People who hear about this way to work on these criticize it, but in reality a guy that is versed in cab pulls can do many jobs on these trucks faster than the other brands that don't encourage cab pulls for general repairs.... The super duty, has continued to improve the engineering with cab pulls intended as part of repair.,.. right or wrong it was how it was designed to be repaired
@@UpstateWoodchuck I see both sides of the deal. N one hand it’s a chore to do extra work, but on the other hand, there isn’t a lot to it per say, and could from the looks of it l do an out frame in the same time as an in frame.
Take pictures lots of pictures and maybe a few short videos with some narrative. Good luck. It really isn't that hard. The hard part is setting up and preparin. So just get everything you want done and ordered so it's up. Off and on ready to go no weighting for parts etc.. Then it's crack that first nut or bolt.
Nice video sir,I’m Learned more your video great job sir!!!!
What did you put inside the roof of the cab to relieve stress
Do you have a video on how to start from finished to get to the valve covers on a 08 f350 6.4 diesel.
Are you filming this with a head mounted camera? If so, what camera? Thanks!
High pressure turbo went out and bedplate leak 🙃 waiting for my brother to get his pull barn built so we can attempt a fix, unless I decide to just pay the dealer lol
Thanks for the tips !!!👍👍
Great work👌🏻🙂
"I'm gonna vacuum this out so I don't get coronavirus from this truck..." Bahahahahhahaha I'm dead. Great video!
I have a 08' 350 crew short bed dually with the v10.. I need to get the passenger side valve cover off and the book says to unblolt the engine mounts on the passenger side and loosen the engine mounts on the driver side, have to disconnect exhaust at the cats... The v10 is tighter than the 5.4 but more room than that 6.4 for sure.. Seems like, if I unbolted the cab on the passenger side and jacked up a couple inches and pulled it over about an inch.. I wouldn't really need to disconnect anything and would get enough to squeeze that valve cover off?? Do you have thoughts on that.. Do you think it would damage anything? Most everting connecting has a couple inches or more of slack or flex.. Thanks for sharing..
Awesome video man!
I got the 2008 f250 64 powerstroke I need exhaust manifold bolt snapped how much you charge and where do you live much appreciated thank you by the way I did like and subscribe
How long did it take👍👍
Once you get good at them it only takes about an hour to pull a cab
thanks for the video I watched a guy pull the engine without removing the cab I will remove the cab. stupid engineering. but thank you for saving me some gray hair trying to get my engine out washout pulling the cab first. should have watched your video first.. thank you
What’s the most effective way to get her started after draining fuel and doing heads it’s a pita
Yikes! So much work just to start working on the motor... A good buddy, now my brother-in-law, and I skipped school and went to the 'big city'. On the way back blew the motor. Walked a few miles to call his dad who came and towed us back to the farm. He told us to pull the motor from that truck and another and swap them... Had the motor out before supper and the second one out and in before bed. Drove it to school the next morning with the second motor!
Is this cab removal pretty much the same for a 2008? Thank you
Yup 2008-2010 are the same
@@darkirondiesel... lol hence the title above. Can I read much, my bad! Just want to say this has helped a lot. First time I've done this and its seems to be going well.
Awesome video. Thank you
Mine is deleted and tuned no check engine light on can I remove the egr coolers off the truck
Great video! Go in depth of the head gasket please!
Working on the head removal video as we speak!
8:20 found that if you spray it down with penetrating fluid and gently pull back and forth it releases so much easier!
Great job brother u the man
What did you do about 4wd linkage ? Or was this an electronic shift
I believe it was electric but if you have manual you would just disconnect the linkage from the transfer case
Very clear video thank you like it very much
"Easy" is owning the v10 version of this truck. I literally just change the oil. Runs perfect, lots of power, tows great.
Nice job bro!
Excellent job dude....
Do I need to remove cab to do driver side only lifters?
video should be titled "Overcoming Ford's engineers"
