he has a 7.3 without variable geometry turbo. one of the parts you get less power from but also less problems

Vincent: Assuming that you are asking what clamp do you need from the two above....

It depends on the diameter of the tie rod connecting the two front knuckles.

1 5/8"=1.625"=41mm

1 3/8=1.375"=35mm

Vincent what were you doing here? Did you completely fill the channels in the front of the roof before painting?

That makes sense. Is it just aluminum rolled over on the edges and stuck down with the same seam sealer you used for the gutters? It looks great!

I folded a 1 mm stainless steel sheet and glued it with the same Sika glue.
