L9000 is a smaller truck. Gvwr of around 15 tonsFound a set of Cummins shop manuals for the L10 on ebay, actually covered all the models I listed. Includes both a shop manual and a troubleshooting/electrical diagnoses manual.
So I've been mistakenly calling the truck a L9000, (as does everyone selling them) turns out it's an LT9000. The truck is at the glass shop for a new windshield and the one they ordered didn't fit. Apparently the LT/LTL take a different, shorter, and gasketed vs glued windshield than the L9000. Ran the vin, sure enough LT9000. I'm sure some of you probably caught that mistake just by looking at the picture
The transmission is a 9spd Road Ranger, not a 9LL. There is only one selection in the low gear vs 2 or 3 in the 8LL/9LL. Both Low gear and reverse are pretty deep however, should be good for my needs. When I get the truck back I'll post up a new thread with all the specs, pics and repairs/modifications.
Depends on years-even the plunger headlight switch was used on some. Heater controls also.Not many pickup parts are interchangeable on my L9000.
With Ford and depending on who the sales person was and who was spec'ing-that's correctYep. My L9000 is the same 18K front, 40K rears.
The DT530 P pump or E version?My buddy had one shortly after they were introduced and had nothing but trouble with it. Some electrical gremilin would make it shut down randomly and not restart. After two years of trips to the dealer and several lost loads of asphalt IH bought the truck back.
